Assessment of Soil Moisture Content Measurement Methods: Conventional Laboratory Oven versus Halogen Moisture Analyzer

Authors: Arezou Rasti, Maria Pineda and Mehrdad Razavi

Abstract: Moisture content is a critical factor that affects the engineering behavior of soils, especially cohesive soils. Therefore, the monitoring and determination of the water content is an essential task in an experimental study in the field of geotechnical engineering. There are different techniques and standards to measure soil water content. ASTM D2216 is a laboratory standard test method for the determination of water content of the soil widely used in the United States as well as many other places around the world.

Modeling Distribution of Potassium in the Soil in Under Drip Irrigation

Authors: Farhad Mirzaei and Arash Mohammad Biegi

Abstract: In recent years, use of drip irrigation has been increased for many products, in a wide range of soil textures and structures. So far, any model has not been provided for distribution of potassium in the soil during irrigation. The purpose of this, research is modeling distribution of potassium in the soil, under drip irrigation.

Survival of Generic Escherichia coli and Salmonella in Oregon’s Agricultural Soils

Authors: Alexander W Emch, Hussein MH Mohamed and Joy G Waite-Cusic

Abstract: Establishment of foodborne pathogens in agricultural production areas (orchards, fields) has been linked to produce-related outbreaks. The source of contaminants is often undetermined; however, agricultural water could serve as a conduit for the initial and continual contamination of produce.

Sensitivity towards Nitrate: Comparison of Groundwater versus Surface Water Crustaceans

Authors: Gerhardt A

Abstract: Groundwater pollution with Nitrate represents a rising environmental problem, which might even be intensified by climate change. In this study, the acute (24 h) and chronic (5 weeks) toxicity of Nitrate has been investigated using groundwater crustaceans (Niphargopsis casparyi, Pratz 1866 and Proasellus slavus, Remy 1948) and surface water amphipods (Gammarus fossarum, Koch 1835) as comparison.
