Soil Fertility of Decomposed Granite Cut Slopes and Adjacent Vegetated Soils
In Thoreau's time, people were already planting trees to restore landscapes. Throughout this century, public and private organizations as well as countless landowners have worked to restore plant communities to sites that have been disturbed by natural disasters, and by human activities such as mining, road construction, clear cutting, and agriculture. Over the last 20 years, restoration ecolog...
متن کاملThe Stress-Strain-Strength Behaviour of a Completely Decomposed Granite Soil Using a New Advanced True Triaxial Testing System
Completely decomposed granite (CDG) soil is the most common type of soils found in more than 90% of the land area in Hong Kong. The measurement of the stress-strain-strength behaviour of the CDG soil is very important for deformation and stability analysis of slopes, retaining walls, excavations, deep and shallow foundations related to the CDG soil ground. As most of these geotechnical structur...
متن کاملGranite rock outcrops: an extreme environment for soil nematodes?
We studied soil nematode communities from the surface of granite flatrock outcrops in the eastern Piedmont region of the United States. The thin soils that develop here experience high light intensity and extreme fluctuations in temperature and moisture and host unique plant communities. We collected soils from outcrop microsites in Virginia (VA) and North Carolina (NC) in various stages of suc...
متن کاملStress-Strain Behaviour of Completely Decomposed Granite in Both Triaxial and Plane Strain Conditions
Most of the field problems in geotechnical engineering are in three dimensional state or close to a plane strain condition. Strength and deformation properties of soils in plane strain condition are considerably different from those in an axisymmetric condition. Many researchers have investigated the behaviour of soils under a plane strain condition. However, most of the previous studies have c...
متن کاملBias toward Higher Performance for the Decomposed Network. Whether a Decomposed Network Would Learn
faster than a non-decomposed network when the number of weights in the two networks is approximately equal remains to be tested. Second, we performed a more extensive search in and space than [Kamm and Singhal, 1990], resulting in generally higher learning rates and training times of only a few epochs. The range of learning rates explored in the current study included higher rates than those ex...
