Enhanced efficiency nitrogen fertilizers for nitrogen management in the Columbia Basin, Oregon

Creator:

Holcomb, Jess Charles

Abstract:

Ammonia (NH₃) volatilization can result in a substantial amount of surface applied nitrogen (N) being lost into the atmosphere, making it an environmental pollutant as well as reducing plant-available N. However, N can also be easily lost from the soil through leaching, and nitrous oxide (NO₂). Enhanced efficiency N fertilizers...

Exploring mechanisms that drive the development of reversible soil hydrophobicity

Creator:

Woolverton, Priscilla B.

Abstract:

This study focuses on one widespread characteristic of poor soil quality: hydrophobic soil. Previous research has produced conclusive evidence to show that soil hydrophobicity is affected by soil organic matter (SOM) and soil water content (WC). Hydrophobicity that responds to changes in WC is a unique form of surface hydrophobicity...
