  2. Residual sodium carbonate index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_Sodium_Carbonate...

    The residual sodium carbonate (RSC) index of irrigation water or soil water is used to indicate the alkalinity hazard for soil. The RSC index is used to find the suitability of the water for irrigation in clay soils which have a high cation exchange capacity. When dissolved sodium in comparison with dissolved calcium and magnesium is high in ...

  3. Sodium adsorption ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_adsorption_ratio

    The sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) is an irrigation water quality parameter used in the management of sodium-affected soils.It is an indicator of the suitability of water for use in agricultural irrigation, as determined from the concentrations of the main alkaline and earth alkaline cations present in the water.

  4. Dispersion (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(geology)

    A simplified version of the Emerson soil dispersion test [3] can be completed in the field on a 20-minute to two-hour timescale. Laboratory tests used to diagnose a soil as dispersive focus on the cation exchange capacity of a soil sample and its cation breakdown. Soil cations are dominated by Ca 2+, Mg 2+, K +, and Na +, as well as H + in ...

  5. Dispersion (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(chemistry)

    Dispersion is a process by which (in the case of solid dispersing in a liquid) agglomerated particles are separated from each other, and a new interface between the inner surface of the liquid dispersion medium and the surface of the dispersed particles is generated.

  6. Water content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_content

    Water content or moisture content is the quantity of water contained in a material, such as soil (called soil moisture), rock, ceramics, crops, or wood. Water content is used in a wide range of scientific and technical areas, and is expressed as a ratio, which can range from 0 (completely dry) to the value of the materials' porosity at saturation.

  7. Water retention curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_retention_curve

    Water retention curve is the relationship between the water content, θ, and the soil water potential, ψ. The soil moisture curve is characteristic for different types of soil, and is also called the soil moisture characteristic. It is used to predict the soil water storage, water supply to the plants (field capacity) and soil aggregate stability.

  8. Groundwater flow equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_flow_equation

    the water is of constant density (incompressible), any external loads on the aquifer (e.g., overburden, atmospheric pressure) are constant, for the 1D radial problem the pumping well is fully penetrating a non-leaky aquifer, the groundwater is flowing slowly (Reynolds number less than unity), and; the hydraulic conductivity (K) is an isotropic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drainage_equation

    The drainage formula can be amplified [10] to account for (see figure on the right): the additional energy associated with the incoming percolation water , see groundwater energy balance; multiple soil layers; anisotropic hydraulic conductivity, the vertical conductivity (Kv) being different from the horizontal (Kh)
