Sentence examples for access soil from inspiring English sources

Since imaging techniques are not widely accessible, we suggest using this technique to build up an open access "soil structure library" for a large range of soil types, which could form the basis to relate more easily available measures to pore structural attributes in a site-specific way (i.e., taking into account texture, soil organic matter content, etc.).

Thus, the shrubs can readily access soil water and nutrients from both surface and deep soil horizons.

The water potential assessed at midday describes the strongest negative water potential applied by the sample species to access soil water at the given measuring time.

Our results demonstrate that soil penetration resistance, root architecture and water uptake are closely interrelated and thereby determine the potential of plants to access soil water pools.

Partitioning of Etotal in this woodland type also demonstrated that trees provide a more stable water flux out of the system than Efloor, most likely because they access soil water from a large volume of soil.

Phosphorus deficiency is a common limiting factor in plantation forestry even though P. radiata has the advantage over some other plant species of being able to access soil organic P because of an association between radiata pine roots and ectomycorrhizal fungi (Davis and Lang [1991]; Davis et al. [1996]).

Comparable results are available from Otieno et al. (2005b), who recorded leaf water potentials to assess root access to soil water at varying soil depths and how this affects the expression of morphological and physiological traits developed during drought in the savannah region of Kenya.

It is promising that during the recovery period the shallow root resumed growth and reached the same length as in the drained control, allowing access to soil moisture at depth as the soil profile dries later in the season.

By this, the sample trees presumably gained some access to soil water which is not accessible otherwise.

An unpredictable food supply, scant access to soil and the essential nitrogen it holds: no wonder young roaches must know how to scam.
