Soil degradation is a global challenge that is intrinsically linked to climate change and food security. Soil degradation has many causes, but all degraded soils suffer from poor soil structure. The increasing global production of water treatment res... Read More about Reusing Fe water treatment residual as a soil amendment to improve physical function and flood resilience.

Flood Holding Capacity: A Novel Concept to Evaluate the Resilience of Amended Soils (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Kerr, H., Johnson, K., Toll, D. G., & Mansfield, F. (2016). Flood Holding Capacity: A Novel Concept to Evaluate the Resilience of Amended Soils. . https://doi.org/10.1061/9780784480120.041

The term water holding capacity (WHC) has long been used to help researchers determine how soils respond to typical wetting under rainfall. However the term WHC is insufficient as a measurement to describe how soil responds to flooding events. This p...
