Digital soil morphometrics is defined as the application of tools and techniques for
measuring and quantifying soil profile attributes and deriving continuous depth functions …

Tillage and rotation are fundamental factors influencing soil quality and thus the
sustainability of crop** systems. Many studies have focused on the effects of either tillage …

Percolation Theory has made significant breakthroughs in the understanding of physical
processes through identification of an infinite connected cluster. It allows the definition of …

There is a long-lasting debate about the effects of tillage practices on soil structure and
structure-mediated ecosystem properties like hydraulic conductivity and crop productivity …

Soil structure affects soil quality, which in turn influences agricultural productivity. In north-
eastern China, periodic melting of the frozen layer is very common in late autumn and early …

Soil macropores largely control fluid and solute transport, making visualization and
quantification of macropore characteristics essential for better understanding and predicting …

Freeze-thaw cycles extensively and intensely occur in northeast China and generate
significant effects on soil pore structure. The objective of this study was to obtain three …

The soil water retention curve is one of the most important properties used to predict the
amount of water available to plants, pore size distribution and hydraulic conductivity, as well …
