4. Effect of alternate freezing and thawing on the impermeability of alfalfa and dodder seeds

Author:
Midgley, A.R.

Agronomy journal 1926 v.18 no.12 pp. 1087-1098
ISSN:
0002-1962
Subject:
Medicago sativa; Cuscuta; seed germination; seeds; absorption; freezing; thawing; permeability
Abstract:
... Alfalfa seed contains a high percentage of impermeable seeds. After the first freezing, subsequent freezing and thawing seem to have very little influence in reducing the number of impermeable alfalfa seeds. The first freezing is by far the most effective. It reduced the number of impermeable seeds about 23%, on the average. The intensity of freezing has no influence in reducing the impermeability ...

Subject:
soil structure; permeability; water; shrinkage; cracking; exchangeable cations; textural soil types; Oregon
Abstract:
... This study was made as a preliminary investigation to determine whether certain procedures might be of use in making studies of soil structure. The Bouyoucos method of measuring soil permeability to water seems satisfactory as a percolation method. The method is sufficiently sensitive to distinguish soil types that show marked differences in behavior in the field, and to distinguish between surfac ...

ISSN:
0040-5175
Subject:
air; cellulose; cotton; fabrics; laundry; permeability; textile fibers
Abstract:
... Wide cotton sheets were placed in service and laundered weekly. Chemical and physical tests were made on the sheets at successive wear intervals. The physical properties of the sheets, namely, strength, weight, thickness and air permeability, were found to be more adversely affected in the area exposed to the greatest wear. Copper number and alpha-cellulose determinations showed the chemical deter ...

Abstract:
... SummaryCalculations have been made of mean effective pore diameters based on the fractional open area and water permeability in six columns of different, laboratory-packed, water-saturated soils. The magnitudes of the pore diameters are associated with the occurrences of particle migration, but are unrelated to the absolute amounts of the latter, which have been measured by means of mechanical ana ...

They were washed until no Cl⁻ appeared in the washing and several physico-chemical properties of the Fe clays were studied. Some of the more important data are summarized below. The Fe was about all adsorbed from additions of FeCl₃ up to 2.5 symme ...

Abstract:
... SummaryThe addition of lime to Cecil clay under field conditions reduced the permeability and had a dispersing effect on the soil aggregates. It would be expected to increase the susceptibility of the soil to erosion. Applications of organic matter up to four tons per acre had little effect on porosity after six months and no significant effect on aggregation or permeability after eighteen months. ...

Abstract:
... In this paper is described the derivation of the empirical relationship between two commonly used instruments for determining air permeability—namely, the Frazier and Gurley machines. In addition, the limitations of each of the devices are discussed as well as the number of specimens necessary for testing. The correlation has also been determined by consideration of physical constants and pressure ...

Trifolium incarnatum; inbreeding; seed germination; permeability; testa; Georgia
Abstract:
... Crimson clover plants were selected on the basis of permeability and inbred for three years. Parental selections in the S2 and S3 generations were confined almost exclusively within the originally established lines. In the first generation selfed parents differing 60.3% in permeability produced progeny differing by only 0.3%. S2 parents differing 44.8% in permeability yielded progeny with only a 3 ...

Abstract:
... Conclusions and SummaryIt was assumed when this problem was undertaken that there existed a function f of the moisture content that could be multiplied by the permeability constant k of the Darcy equation to make it applicable to movement of moisture in unsaturated soil. It would appear, however, from the experimental data obtained for a typical soil, that in addition to a pressure gradient due to ...

19. A Key for Evaluating Soil Permeability by Means of Certain Field Clues

Subject:
clay minerals; climate; coatings; permeability; silt fraction; soil permeability; texture
Abstract:
... Field clues to soil permeability were investigated at 182 locations from 1947 through 1951. Estimates of permeability were made in the field without prior knowledge of measured percolation rates. Then the estimated permeability class was compared with the measured rate. In case of discrepancy, the profile was re-examined to see if any signfiicant clues had been overlooked. It was found that permea ...

Permeability, volume weight, and percent of pores drained were determined on virgin soils, fertilized and unfertilized soils, soil farmed to a good rotation in contrast to a poor rotation, and eroded soils as compared to slightly eroded soils. Some studies were also made on the effect ...
