| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses layering of athletic fields, stating that "it is important that the root zone mixture be as uniform as possible from top to bottom since the presence of layers of differing materials will interfere with the desired water and air movement through the root zone." Describes several layers including black layer; silt and/or clay layers; and cemented layers. Discusses possible ways of correcting the effects of layering, stressing that prevention is key, because "corrective actions for layered root zone mixtures are expensive and often are only of limited effectiveness." |
