Assessment of Crawler Tractor Effects on Soil Surface Properties

assessment of crawler tractor effects on soil surface properties

skidding operations can cause considerable and wide spread soil disturbance. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of ground skidding operations on soil compaction, moisture content, and total porosity at different levels of slope and traffic frequency. four levels of traffic intensity (3, 8, 13, and >13 passes of a crawler tractor onezhets ? 110) and three levels of slope ( 2...

Geostatistical assessment of Pb and the related soil physical and chemical properties in near-surface soil around Sepahanshahr, Isfahan

This paper presents a survey on soil Pb concentration around Sepahanshahr town located in vicinity of Isfahan. Due to the lack of regulation and environmental education and awareness, Sepahanshahr is now a rapid growing residential area suffering from the considerable consequences of poorly regulated mining activities operating in its vicinity. The aim of this study is to explore the spatial st...

Impact of the Repeated Tractor Passes on Some Physical Properties of Silty Loam Soil

Soil compaction caused by machinery traffic in agriculture is a well recognised problem in many parts of the world as one of the most important factor responsible for soil physical degradation and has important consequences on crop production and environment (Soane and van Ouwerkerk, 1994; Keller and Arvidsson, 2004). It is estimated to be responsible for the degradation of an area of 68 millio...

Soil moisture and soil-litter mixing effects on surface litter decomposition: A controlled environment assessment

Recent studies suggest the long-standing discrepancy between measured and modeled leaf litter decomposition in drylands is, in part, the result of a unique combination of abiotic drivers that include high soil surface temperature and radiant energy levels and soil-litter mixing. Temperature and radiant energy effects on litter decomposition have been widely documented. However, under field cond...
