| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses artificial turf, mentioning the installation of artificial FieldTurf (a brand of artificial turf) at the University of Iowa's Kinnik Stadium before the beginning of the 2010 college football season. States that "since it's beginnings in Houston's Astrodome, the merits of artificial turf have long been a point of debate. While Astroturf was little more than a durable green carpet laid over a concrete pad that kept athletic trainers employed, FieldTurf and other, similar products in the marketplace...have their merits and are rapidly gaining popularity." Discusses some of the potential challenges faced when developing artificial turf greens." |
