Abstract/Contents:"Soil moisture retention characteristics are fundamental parameters for understanding water flow and solute transport processes in soils. The effects of different cultivation practices and product treatments on soil moisture retention curve (SMRC) parameters were studied for different soil types on two golf course fairways in Lubbock, Texas. During 2016-2017, soil samples were collected from each of the two golf courses with different turf characteristics under three cultivation practices (non-cultivated control, and hollow-tine aerification and slicing) and different commercial product treatments (nine products and an untreated control). The variation of SMRC parameters in the wet (between saturation (0) and 300 kPa) and dry (between 300 and 1500 kPa) ranges, i.e., saturated, field capacity, wilting point or residual soil moisture contents; available water holding capacity; and saturated hydraulic conductivity due to the treatment combinations of cultivation practices and products were evaluated. The performances of four widely used SMRC models (Brooks and Corey, van Genuchten, Kosugi, and Fredlund and Xing models) in estimating water transport parameters for golf course soils under different cultivation practices and product treatments were also evaluated."
