Abstract/Contents: | Discusses aeration and soil compaction in turf, providing "explanations of the type of data collected in turf compaction experiments, and to discuss some past and current turfgrass compaction research." Details research done at Auburn University using two locations, three pieces of equipment, and the short and long term effects resulting from each aerification method. Provides brief conclusions on all the research. States everything measured in turfgrass compaction experiments including soil bulk density, soil penetrometer readings, hydraulic conductivity and clegg impact readings. |
