Aggregation studied by laser diffraction in relation to plowing, soil organic matter, and lime in the Brazilian cerrados
In the Cerrados, a large savanna region in Brazil, the effects of different land use on aggregation in Oxisols were studied, using laser diffraction grain-size analyses. The topsoil of plowed systems had significantly fewer macroaggregates (194-2000 micro m) and a significantly larger fraction of mi...
