Mycorrhizal type that forms highly branched arbuscles within root cortical cells of host or compatible plants.
Industry:Earth science
Soil properties related to volcanic origin of materials. The properties include organic carbon content, bulk density, phosphate retention, and iron and aluminum extractable with ammonium oxalate.
Industry:Earth science
Proportionality constant which indicates the ability of a material to allow gases and ions to flow under a partial pressure or concentration gradient.
Industry:Earth science
Rock derived from preexisting rocks that have been altered physically, chemically, and/or mineralogically as a result of natural geological processes, principally heat and pressure, originating within the earth. The preexisting rocks may have been igneous, sedimentary, or another form of metamorphic rock.
Industry:Earth science
Erosion process typically involved in gully formation and bank failure in which subsurface flow exiting the soil transports soil particles entrained in the seepage water.
Industry:Earth science
Oxisols that have a udic soil moisture regime.
Industry:Earth science
A technique for demonstrating or estimating denitrification by measuring nitrous oxide (N2O) released from acetylene-treated soil. Acetylene inhibits nitrous oxide reduction to dinitrogen (N2) by denitrifying bacteria.
Industry:Earth science
Free water surface where soil water is at atmospheric pressure.
Industry:Earth science
Accelerated erosion which results in subterranean voids and tunnels.
Industry:Earth science
An estimation of plant mineral nutrient status from the chemical composition of selected plant parts, and the color and growth characteristics of the plant foliage.
