Abstract/Contents: | States that "pushing or pulling ambient air through the soil column of golf greens via subsurface drain lines is an innovative method of potentially reducing heat and water stresses, and toxic gas buildup." Describes a study conducted "to investigate the effects of subsurface air movement on plant and soil factors of creeping bentgrass golf greens." Reports that "although not statistically different, utilization of subsurface air movement demonstrated a positive trend on rooting weight and length." |
