| Abstract/Contents: | "A research project was conducted at The Ohio State University, The University of Minnesota, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University to determine the spatial variability of amino sugar nitrogen on golf course fairways. Fairways from an 85-year-old golf course and an 8-year-old course were sampled. The study found: The two fairways from the newer course displayed a greater degree of spatial heterogeneity than the two fairways from the older golf course at all sampling depths. Although the amino sugar N concentrations measured on the four sampled fairways varied, the spatial correlation present would allow for traditional soil sampling techniques to be used to assess the soil amino sugar N concentration within an area such as a golf course fairway. There was also enough variability within an area that the sampling technique used would permit the identification of areas with higher and lower amino sugar N values on a golf course fairway and allow for the potential development of site-specific application of nitrogen fertility. To further develop site-specific N fertilizer applications, our data suggests bulking soil from 4 or 5 locations within a 100-m section of each fairway." |
