Download or read book Managing Agricultural Residues written by Paul W. Unger and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1994-03-16 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many agriculturalists, conservationists, and environmentalists are stressing the importance of sustaining soil productivity so that future generations will have adequate productive land on which to produce food. One significant factor affecting soil productivity is the retention of crop residues on the surface of the soil to help control soil erosion. This book provides a review of the vast amount of literature on the subject, condensing the findings in a comprehensive, easy-to-understand manner. It focuses on topics such as erosion control, crop production in systems involving surface residues, residue use for fuel and animal feed, plant pathogens, insects, soil properties, and the economics of conservation tillage.

Download or read book Mechanical Effects of Incorporation Residues and Mulch on Soil Erosion by Water written by R. A. Dedeck and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of crop residues in reducing soil erosion by water has been extensively reported. The mechanical effect of crop residues on reducing erosion is most noticeable from seedbed preparation to full crop canopy, and its is almost exclusively related to the percentage of soil surface cover. Residue mixing into the few inches of the soil surface is a common feature of conservation tillage systems. With the development of erosion theory, new approaches have been made available to describe the mechanical effects of crop residues on soil erosion by water. An experiment was conduted at the Purdue Agronomy Farm, near Lafayette, Indiana, on residue incorporation: depth (7.5 and 15cm) and residue rate (0, 1 and 4 ton/ha), and incorporation versus loose mulch on the surface (0,20 and 45% soil coverage). Wheat straw was incorporated with a rototiller into field plots on a Russel silt loam soil, with 4.4% slope. Rainfall was simulated with a programmable rainfall simulator and longer slope length than 35 ft was simulated with added inflow. Surface roughness, residue cover, soil moisture, runoff rates, sediment concentration, flow velocity, and eroded aggregate sizes were measured. Rill and interrill contributions to the erosion rates and mulch failure parameters were estimated. Residue cover percent was found to be the most important factor in the effectiveness of residues in reducing erosion. Incorporated residues reduced mulch susceptibility to be carried away and helped to maintain the initial residue cover ...

Download or read book Design Hydrology and Sedimentology for Small Catchments written by C. T. Haan and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1994-08-17 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act, with its emphasis on storm water and sediment control in urban areas, has created a compelling need for information in small-catchment hydrology. Design Hydrology and Sedimentology for Small Catchments provides the basic information and techniques required for understanding and implementing design systems to control runoff, erosion, and sedimentation. It will be especially useful to those involved in urban and industrial planning anddevelopment, surface mining activities, storm water management, sediment control, and environmental management.This class-tested text, which presents many solved problems throughout as well as solutions at the end of each chapter, is suitable for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education courses. In addition, practicing professionals will find it a valuable reference.Anderson/Woessner: APPLIED GROUNDWATER MODELING (1992)Shuirman/Slosson: FORENSIC ENGINEERING (1992)de Marsily: QUANTITATIVE HYDROGEOLOGY (1986)Selley: APPLIED SEDIMENTOLOGY, THIRD EDITION (1988)Huyakorn: COMPUTATIONAL METHODS IN SUBSURFACE FLOW (1986)Pinder: FINITE ELEMENT MODELING IN SURFACE AND SUBSURFACE HYDROLOGY (1977)Key Features* Covers major new improvements and state-of-the-art technologies in sediment control technology* Provides in-depth information on estimating the impact of land-use changes on runoff and flood flows, as well as on estimating erosion and sediment yield from small catchments* Presents superior coverage on design of flood and sediment detention ponds and design of runoff and sediment control measures

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil degradation has serious global impacts on agronomic, economic, and sociopolitical conditions, however, statistics regarding the degree of these impacts has been largely unreliable. This book aims to standardize the methodology for obtaining reliable and objective data on soil degradation. It will also identify and develop criteria for assessing the severity of soil degradation, providing a realistic scenario of the problem.
