Soil MineralogyIn a pot experiment with five harvests of ryegrass the potassium (K) uptake from soil was studied in a clay and a silt soil, with (K1) and without (K0) K fertilizer. Ammonium acetate lactate-extractable K (K-AL) was rapidly depleted, and in K0 the K-AL level stabilized...
Soil TextureNatural RadionuclidesIn this research, a gamma ray sensor (The Mole) was used to get the natural radionuclides concentration in in the surface layer of cultivated soils. For sand, silt and clay predictions, an adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was performed to predict ...
A mixture of water and soil or fine grained sediment. A plaster-like mixture used to texture or smooth drywall. Wet concrete as it is being mixed, delivered and poured. Willfully abusive, even slanderous remarks or claims, notably between political opponents. ...
Clay is a fine-grained earth material used in pottery and ceramics, while mud is a wet, soft earth matter often resulting from mixed soil and water.

size with a lesser amount of clay. Sand gives soil volume and porosity; silt gives it resilience; clay provides nutrients and strength while retaining water. Too much sand makes a soil loose and sterile; too much silt makes it mucky; too much clay makes it impenetrable whether wet or dry....
In both soils, the greatest increase in OC and humin following refuse additions occurred in the fine silt fraction, which contained less decomposed organic matter than the clay fraction. In the beidellitic clay soil, this increase in OC was larger than in the illitic clay soil. The aggregate...
