Abstract:: ... Adoption of conservation tillage in cotton cropping systems lags well behind other major crops in the United States. The Texas High Plains region is the largest cotton-producing region in the United States and is in an area where soil and water conservation are of utmost importance. There is little information of the impacts of conservation tillage on soil function within this environment, and lon ...

Subject:: Gossypium hirsutum; clay; cotton; evapotranspiration; fertilizer application; irrigation; lint yield; nitrate nitrogen; nitrogen fertilizers; sand; soil heterogeneity; soil texture; soil water; soil water content; statistical models; texture; topography; High Plains (United States); Texas
Abstract:: ... Field heterogeneity in soil texture and site elevation (SE) may affect crop water and N use. A 2-yr (1998–1999) study was conducted on the Texas High Plains to determine the interdependence between management (irrigation and N fertilization), soil heterogeneity (texture, soil water, and NO₃-N) and topography, and their impact on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lint yield and N uptake. Treatments we ...

Subject:: Bowen ratio; Gossypium hirsutum; Paleustolls; Triticum aestivum; cotton; crop residues; energy balance; evaporation; herbicides; irrigation; light intensity; sandy clay loam soils; spring; water vapor; wind speed; winter wheat; High Plains (United States); Texas
Abstract:: ... Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the High Plains of Texas is frequently planted in ridge-tilled soil covered with standing winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) residue created by killing the wheat in the spring with a herbicide. A study was conducted on an Olton sandy clay loam (fine, mixed, thermic Aridic Paleustoll) to determine how the winter wheat residue affects the surface energy halance and ...

Abstract:: ... Three soils have been identified in late Holocene deposits at the Lubbock Lake site, a well- stratified archaeological locality on the Southern High Plains. The soils have been informally named and their ages firmly established by radiocarbon dating. The soils formed in quartzose, sandy loam to sandy clay loam, dominantly eolian sediments with illite and mixed-layer illite-smectite clay mineralogy ...

Subject:: Cenozoic era; X-ray diffraction; cation exchange capacity; chemical analysis; clay; magnesium; palygorskite; sediments; sepiolite; silicon; soil formation; water solubility; High Plains (United States); Texas
Abstract:: ... The acicular (needle-like) clay minerals, sepiolite and palygorskite, were found to be widespread in late Cenozoic sediments of the Texas High Plains. Five soils developed in these sediments, or in materials derived thereform, were analyzed to determine if sepiolite and palygorskite were stable under soilforming conditions. X-ray diffraction, cation exchange capacity, and electron optical data ind ...
