A New Method for the Determination of Exchangeable Aluminium in Acid Soils*
In addition to A1 in the crystal lattice of clay minerals, A1 in soils can be divided into two major groups viz., exchangeable and non-exchangeable. The A1 equilibrium in soils is controlled by the solubility of the solid phase A1 compounds on the one hand and the adsorption characteristics of the adsorption phase on the other. Thus for a given soil the amount of exchangeable A1 will depend on ...
متن کاملSoil Changes Associated with Cessation of Sheep Grazing in the Canterbury High Country, New Zealand
Soil degradation has been implicated as a cause of the poor vegetation condition over much of the unimproved tussock grassland in the South Island high country and as a threat to the sustainability of extensive pastoralism (Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, 1991; South Island High Country Review Working Party, 1994). A key requirement for assessment of sustainability is an ability...
متن کاملContrasting bacterial communities in two indigenous Chionochloa (Poaceae) grassland soils in New Zealand
The cultivation of grasslands can modify both bacterial community structure and impact on nutrient cycling as well as the productivity and diversity of plant communities. In this study, two pristine New Zealand grassland sites dominated by indigenous tall tussocks (Chionochloa pallens or C. teretifolia) were examined to investigate the extent and predictability of variation of the bacterial com...
متن کاملExchangeable and Bioavailable Aluminium in the Mountain Forest Soil of Barania Góra Range (Silesian Beskids, Poland)
The research was carried out in the spruce forests of Barania Góra (Silesian Beskids, Poland) affected by pandemic dying of trees. Twenty-seven samples were collected from the O layer in two plots: 17 in a cut down forest infested with insect pests (bark beetle) and ten in a 120-year-old healthy forest. The analyses covered basic parameters (pH(H2O), pH(KCl), w(org), C(tot), N(tot), CEC) and th...
متن کاملIn Situ Soil Pipeflow Experiments on Contrasting Streambank Soils
Soil piping has been attributed as a potential mechanism of instability of embankments and streambanks. Limited field work has been conducted on quantifying and modeling pipeflow and internal erosion processes in the field with either natural or artificially created soil pipes. This research utilized an innovative constant-head trench system to conduct constant-head soil pipe experiments in two...
