Extraction and plant availability of cadmium and zinc in a Willamette sandy loam soil

Creator:: Halvorson, Gary Alfred
Abstract:: A Willamette sandy shot loam was treated with ZnC1₂, CdC1₂, or sewage sludge to determine the chemical fate of added Cd and Zn in the soil and their influence on the growth of corn and wheat seedlings. Cadmium was added as CdC1₂ at rates of 0, 5, 20, or 80...

Geochemical characteristics of iron-manganese nodules in seasonally-saturated soils of the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Seter, Lisa M.
Abstract:: This study was initiated to characterize the distribution of Fe-Mn nodules and to elucidate trends of Fe, Mn, and P relative to the intensity of the annual cycles of reduction and oxidation. Nodules were enriched in Fe, Mn, and P relative to the soil matrix making them an integral part...

Nitrogen available to winter wheat as influenced by previous crop in a moist xeric environment

Creator:: Qureshi, Maqsood Hassan
Abstract:: Rotating wheat with other crops is a common practice in the Willamette Valley of western Oregon. Depending upon previous crop and soil type, current N fertilizer recommendations for wheat in the Willamette Valley vary widely. Excessive fertilizer poses environmental risk, whereas lower N inputs than required by the crop represent...

Soil quality dynamics in an integrated reduced-tillage and cover-cropped vegetable agroecosystem

Creator:: Banners, Candace R.
Abstract:: Soil response and function were investigated following the adoption of an integrated reduced-tillage and cover-cropped vegetable system in the Willamette Valley of Western Oregon. The experiment was conducted over three cropping seasons (2002-2004) at the Oregon State University Vegetable Research Farm (Corvallis, OR). The design was a randomized complete-block with...

Determinants of microbial community structure and substrate utilization potential in soils of vegetable cropping systems

Creator:: Schutter, Mary E.
Abstract:: The Oregon Long-Term Soil Quality Project was initiated to identify soil properties that respond rapidly to alternative management practices. Such practices included winter cover cropping, which was implemented at two experimental research stations and several grower fields throughout the Willamette Valley. The goal of this thesis was to identify the...

Aggregation, bulk density, compaction, and water intake responses to winter cover cropping in Willamette Valley vegetable production

Creator:: Buller, Gilbert L.
Abstract:: Many agricultural sustainability issues are related to biological processes which are central to the ecological function of soils. Soil physical properties are the architecture in which these processes are carried out. Cover crops hold promise as one of the techniques which can ameliorate poor soil structure and improve bulk density...

Land use distributions and changes in the Willamette Valley in relation to soil characteristics

Creator:: Wiens, John Herbert
Abstract:: A study was undertaken in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, to document 1971 land use patterns as well as land use change in a smaller study area in the 16 years prior, and to relate these to soil characteristics. Quantification of these inter-relationships was aided by use of computer tabulation and...

Agricultural erosion and sediment in the western Willamette Valley as indicated by redistribution of Cesium-137

Creator:: Brown, R. B. (Randall Barber)
Abstract:: Modern agricultural erosion was studied using ¹³⁷Cs from fallout as an indicator of erosion/deposition. The study area was a 285 ha agricultural watershed in the hilly western margin of the Willamette Valley, a high winter rainfall zone in which fall-planted crops are commonly grown. Objectives of the study were (i)...
