Characterization of a reconstituted low plasticity silt
… these difficulties were associated with the soft silt ground conditions. Consequently, soil samples were sourced from the location and transported to MIT for the purposes of this research. This thesis investigates the characteristics of the low plasticity silt encountered at Skibbereen to allow an …

Chronology and paleoenvironment of Peoria Silt deposition and Jules Geosol development along the Illinois Valley, Illinois, USA
… developed in thick loess deposits (Peoria Silt) proximal to the Illinois River Valley around the time of the last glacial maximum. Two sites, New Cottonwood School and Thomas Quarry, which contain the Jules Geosol, were selected along the Illinois Valley to develop new chronologies of …

Methane Emissions and Ammonia Volatilization from Drill-Seeded, Delayed-Flood Rice on a Silt-Loam Soil in Arkansas
… investigate trace gas emissions from rice on a silt-loam soil, including CH4 emissions as influenced by nitrogen (N) fertilization (i.e., optimal N and no N) in 2011, and previous crop [i.e., soybean (Glycine max L.) or rice] and cultivar (i.e., semi-dwarf, standard-stature, and hybrid) in 2012, …

Long-term Effects of Broiler Litter Application Rate on Runoff, Leaching, and Soil Respiration from a Captina Silt Loam
… under natural precipitation from a Captina silt-loam soil (fine-silty, siliceous, active, mesic Typic Fragiudult) with a history of BL amendments under forage management amended annually with BL at three application rates (0, 5.6, and 11.2 Mg BL ha-1). Runoff and leachate were collected for …

The determination of the accumulation and penetration of exchangeable potassium found in Dunmore silt loam under long-time rotational practices
… was made. The rotation is located on Dunmore silt loam, Which is rated as a relatively fertile soil in Virginia. There are indications that sheet erosion has removed considerable amounts of the surface soil from the steeper slopes of the first nine treatments, and it is evident that an …

Effects of certain fertilizer and manurial treatments on the cation exchange properties and organic matter content of dunmore silt loam
An investigation of the pH, organic matter content, and cation exchange properties of the soil of the 26-year-old rotation and continuously cropped plots at Blacksburg, Virginia was carried out. Individual soil samples were taken of the eight sub-plots which represent each plot. After the chemical …

Correlation Analyses among Soil, Plant, and Environmental Variables and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Furrow-irrigated Rice on a Silt-loam Soil
… (2018 and 2019) under furrow-irrigated rice on a silt-loam soil in eastern Arkansas. Gas samples were collected weekly between planting and harvest from enclosed-headspace, static chambers and analyzed by gas chromatography. Methane fluxes were correlated (P < 0.01) with VWC (r = 0.18) and soil …

Do Muds Sort? Experimental Test of a Hypothesis Key to Understanding Marine Bottom Currents
… behavior. This is known as the 'sortable silt' hypothesis and states that the non-cohesive, coarse silt in the 10 to 63 µm size range within a deposit can be used as a proxy for paleocurrent velocity. Slow deposition rates on contourites (2−10 cm/kyr) make it difficult to test this …
