      Soil particles and bound nutrients that erode from agricultural land may end up in surface waters and cause undesirable changes to the environment. Various measures, among them constructed wetlands have been proposed as ...
    • Estimating the Permeability of Naturally Structured Soil From Percolation Theory and Pore Space Characteristics Imaged by X-Ray 

      Koestel, John; Dathe, Annette; Skaggs, Todd H.; Klakegg, Ove Mindor; Ahmad, Muhammad Arslan; Babko, Maryia; Giménez, Daniel; Farkas, Csilla; Nemes, Attila; Jarvis, Nicholas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-30)
      The saturated hydraulic conductivity of soil, Ks, is a critical parameter in hydrological models that remains notoriously difficult to predict. In this study, we test the capability of a model based on percolation theory ...
    • Global meta-analysis of soil hydraulic properties on the same soils with differing land use 

      Robinson, David A.; Nemes, Attila; Reinsch, Sabine; Radbourne, Alan; Bentley, Laura; Keith, Aidan M. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-09-05)
      Global land use change has resulted in more pasture and cropland, largely at the expense of woodlands, over the last 300 years. How this change affects soil hydraulic function with regard to feedbacks to the hydrological ...
    • Is macroporosity controlled by complexed clay and soil organic carbon? 

      Koop, Aaron N.; Hirmas, Daniel R.; Billings, Sharon A.; Li, Li; Cueva, Alejandro; Zhang, Xi; Wen, Hang; Nemes, Attila; Souza, Lígia F.T.; Ajami, Hoori; Flores, Alejandro N.; Rudick, Aoesta K.; Guthrie, Annalise; Klamm, Lola M.; Unruh, Micah; Sullivan, Pamela L. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-26)
      Multi-scale evidence of rapid, climate-induced soil structural changes occurring at yearly to decadal timescales is mounting. As a result, it has become increasingly important to identify the properties and mechanisms ...
    • Pedotransfer functions in Earth system science: challenges and perspectives 

      Van Looy, Kris; Bouma, Johan; Herbst, Michael; Koestel, John; Minasny, Budiman; Mishra, Umakant; Montzka, Carsten; Nemes, Attila; Pachepsky, Yakov A.; Padarian, José; Schaap, Marcel G.; Tóth, Brigitta; Verhoef, Anne; Vanderborght, Jan; van der Ploeg, Martine J.; Weihermüller, Lutz; Zacharias, Steffen; Zhang, Yonggen; Vereecken, Harry (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-14)
      Soil, through its various functions, plays a vital role in the Earth’s ecosystems and provides multiple ecosystem services to humanity. Pedotransfer functions (PTFs) are simple to complex knowledge rules that relate available ...

      It is now evident that fresh- and marine-water ecosystems have long been overloaded by nutrients that originate, among others, from land-based agriculture, and the manifold point-type anthropogenic sources, such as waste-water ...
    • Renseeffekt og kanterosjon i kantsoner med forskjellig vegetasjonstype
