Assessment of Soil Properties and Vegetation in a Mounded Native Tallgrass Prairie with an Aquic and Udic Soil Moisture Regime in the Ozark Highlands Region of Northwest Arkansas
… to agricultural land. Prairie mounds are unique soil features still present in remnant native tallgrass prairies across the United States. The main objective was to determine the effects of soil moisture regime (i.e., aquic and udic), mound position, (i.e., mound summit, backslope, toeslope, …

Forest vegetation response to the application of municipal sewage sludge in the coastal western hemlock zone
… I and II, there were significant effects of soil moisture regime and stand density a number of the species. There were also significant stand density effects on a number of the species at Pack Forest; however, moisture regime was not part of the experimental design. This study demonstrates …

Evaluating soil productivity and climate change benefits of woody biochar soil amendments for the US Interior West
… climate impacts. Proponents claim biochar soil amendments offer a comprehensive solution to enhance soil capacity to deliver water and nutrients to plants while decreasing climate impacts through reduced nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from fertilizer use and carbon (C) sequestration. This …

Application of thermocouple psychrometers to field measurements of soil moisture potential.
… has made possible the measurement of soil moisture potentials to values as low as -80 bars. The applicability of this type of psychrometer to "in situ" measurements of moisture potential at a Sonoran desert field site is investigated. An evaluation is made of the effect of variations …

Earthworm dynamics in tallgrass prairies in the Ozark Highlands region of northwest Arkansas
… of this study were to i) evaluate the effects of soil moisture regime (SMR; aquic and udic), landscape position (LP, mound and inter-mound), and sample date (October 2018 and May 2019) on earthworm densities in two mounded, native prairies, ii) to evaluate the effect of time (i.e., May 2007 and …

Restoring semi-arid lands with superabsorbent polymers under reduced precipitation and threat of Bromus tectorum invasion
… (US) is often constrained by low and variable moisture and invasion by exotic species. After disturbance, variability in resources as well as inherent soil moisture and temperature regimes may influence the susceptibility of an ecosystem to exotic species invasion. The invasive winter annual …
