Índice S para avaliação da qualidade física de solos

Abstract: O conceito da qualidade física do solo atualmente é bem estabelecido, principalmente pelos índices que avaliam a qualidade do solo. O índice S é um recente indicador da qualidade física do solo relacionado com características importantes do solo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi fazer uma avaliação do método de obtenção do índice S quanto à derivada da função de curva de retenção de água da curva usando ou não a transformação ln(h), bem como avaliar o problema de unidades e da restrição m = 1 - 1/n no cálculo do … Show more

“…In general, the soil physical quality of samples from Latosol quantified by S-index under coffee plantation and native forest at four depths ( Figure 3) were higher than the lower boundary limit established by the regressions based on macroporosity 0.10 cm 3 cm -3 considered as critical for soil aeration (Figure 4). It should be noted that values of S-index obtained in the present study are higher than the reference values suggested by Dexter [22] and found by many studies for Brazil´s tropical soils [47,51,52]. In an overview of the relationship between S-index and soil physical properties (particle size distribution, bulk density, total porosity, macroporosity) from 2,364 soil samples with a wide range of clay content, Andrade & Stone [53] found that lower boundary limit for S-index is equal to 0.045.…”

“…Values of S < 0.020 are clearly associated with very poor soil physical quality in the field. Though, in this study we fitted soil-water retention curves using volumetric soil water content, which promoted higher S values, in agreement with Maia [52].…”
