Genesis of some soils in the central western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Brown, R. B.
Abstract:: Soils representative of several landscape units in the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Western Cascade Range, were sampled, analyzed, and tentatively classified. Genetic inferences were drawn relating soils to landscape position and other factors of soil formation. Descriptive information and nutrient capital data were provided to support ecosystem modelling efforts...

Dynamic mathematical model of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange between soil and atmosphere

Creator:: Ou-yang, Ying
Abstract:: Gaseous transport through soil in the presence of soil microorganisms has been investigated. More recently, modeling of gaseous transport in the unsaturated zone has been investigated. However, the problem of mathematical model of oxygen and carbon dioxide transport through soil, as affected by the climatic conditions, the transport of soil...

Disposal of municipal wastes on sandy soil : effect on plant nutrient uptake

Creator:: Cottrell, Nancy McCombs
Abstract:: Solid municipal waste was applied to Sagehill sand at rates of 0, 100, 200, and 400 tons/acre (0, 67, 133, and 267 tons dry matter). Sewage sludge (2% solids) was applied at 55 gallons per ton of solid waste. Hyslop winter wheat was planted as a cover crop in October...

Incinerated sewage sludge use as a soil amendment for sweet corn (Zea mays L.)

Creator:: Mellbye, Mark Edward
Abstract:: Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the suitability of using incinerated sewage sludge ash as a soil amendment for sweet corn production on Willamette silt loam. In 1977, field plots were treated with 0, 11, 22, and 43 mt/ha of ash containing lime, in factorial combination with a...

Phosphorus availability in biosolids-amended soils

Creator:: Choate, Jeff
Abstract:: Quantifying labile phosphorus (P) pools in biosolids is needed to manage biosolids for both agronomic and environmental purposes. Phosphorus indices originated in an effort to protect surface water quality from-non-point-agricultural P inputs. The objectives of this research were to: (1) evaluate soil test components of the western Oregon P index...

Refractory metals processing waste utilization on Dayton silty clay loam soil

Creator:: Polson, Richard Lewis
Abstract:: Waste products from industry have often been disposed in landfills without regard for any beneficial uses of the product in agricultural production. This research was conducted to determine the effect of a refractory metal processing waste product on (a) soil chemical and physical properties, (b) perennial ryegrass forage quality and...

Nitrogen and heavy metal distribution in soils utilized as sludge disposal sites

Creator:: Prothero, Gary Lewis
Abstract:: Metropolitan areas today must dispose large volumes of sewage sludge produced during the wastewater treatment process. This research was conducted to study the effect of large applications of municipal sewage sludge on (a) the distribution of N and trace elements (Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Zn) in the soil profile,...

Movement of elemental constituents in sagehill loamy sand treated with municipal waste

Creator:: Halvorson, Gary Alfred
Abstract:: Metropolitan solid wastes and sewage sludges present a serious disposal problem for many communities. To assess the feasibility of disposal or utilization of these waste products on soils, a study was initiated to evaluate plant growth and soil elemental interactions on a loamy fine sand treated with metropolitan waste. Shredded...
