Abstract/Contents: | Discusses drainage on athletic fields. Topics discussed include properties of water (cohesion, adsorption, capillarity), and soil physical properties (texture and granular distribution, structure, surface area and pore space). States that "in order to effectively diagnose and eventually correct drainage problems, it's useful to clearly understand the relationships which exist between these different properties." |
