of runoff volume and peak runoff rate, which, with the subbasin area, are used to calculate the runoff erosive energy. The crop management factor is recalculated every day that runoff occurs. It is a function ofaboveground biomass, residue on the soil surface, and the minimumCfactor for ...
The regressors in the equation have limits concerning the applicability of the soil pro- ductivity model. First, the hydraulic conductivity levels examined in the study range from 3.3 cm/h to 33 cm/h, the bulk density levels examined in the study Productivity Equation for Reclaiming Surface ...
Soil erosion is one of the major environmental challenges and has a significant impact on potential land productivity and food security in many highland regions of Ethiopia. Quantifying and identifying the spatial patterns of soil erosion is importa
Calculate the mass of soil in an area of 1 ha (10000 square meters) and a depth of 15 cm with a bulk density of 1.30 g/cc. How long does it take an object dropped from 564 ft. to reach the ground? Find the minimum value of the parabola using the following ...
accounted for most of their variations; (2) the total soil potassium and phosphorus and mean annual precipitation had different effects on Nmass and Narea via different pathways and path coefficients, whereas the mean annual temperature and total soil N had non-significant effects on Nmass and ...
This is based on soil values obtained from model footing tests and proves to be extremely accurate for the range of footings and soil types used. NOTATION F Vertical load (lb.) k Pressure sinkage modulus Pp'' Resultant passive earth force (lb. in.-2-n) (lb.) kc Pressure sinkage ...
Ice-VII is a high-pressure polymorph of H 2 O ice and an important mineral widely present in many planetary environments, such as in the interiors of large icy planetary bodies, within some cold subducted slabs, and in diamonds of deep origin as mineral
The derived apparent thermal conductivity and measured soil temperature gradient are applied to Fourier's law for estimating G. This method requires the measurement of soil bulk density and daily water content (for volumetric heat capacity) and hourly temperatures at three depths. Hourly G measured ...
