Abstract:Drought is increasingly common due to frequent occurrences of extreme weather events, which further increases soil water repellency (SWR). It could reinforce the effect of SWR on soil functions under conservation tillage systems. However, the relationship between SWR and soil hydrological function is still unclear. We studied the impacts of SWR and soil structure on soil hydrological function. Three treatments were conducted in a long-term tillage experiment: conventional tillage (CT), reduced tillage (RT), an… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
