Sentence examples for potentials of soil from inspiring English sources
We have recently analyzed functional potentials of soil microbial community via a high-throughput, microarray-based metagenomic tool named GeoChip 3.0 to illustrate microbial responses to global changes simulated by soil transplant and/or maize cropping.
With the evolution of the DNA-sequencing techniques and their accessibility for many working groups, more light will be shed on the complexity of the metabolic potentials of soil microbial communities and their importance to soil ecosystem.

Determination of swell potential of soil is difficult, expensive, time consuming and involves destructive tests.
The assessment of collapsibility potential of soil samples was carried out using the standard ASTM (2003).
Simplified methods have been practiced by researchers to assess nonlinear liquefaction potential of soil.
McDowell and Sharpley (2003) reported the potential of soil P losses into runoff after application of P-containing materials.
Before implementing any project, we should determine the potential of soil in terms of the amount and type of settlement.
