Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study "to evaluate variability problems in the saturated hydraulic conductivity method," and "to develop a revised method for quantifying saturated hydraulic conductivity for rootzones for use by the testing lab industry." Reports that "lab equipment, loading techniques, column saturation techniques, water temperature, and antecedent moisture content of the rootzone mix were all found to be significant sources of variation in the SHC [saturated hydraulic conductivity] test." Also notes that "research work is being conducted to determine calibration methods to minimize the variation." This one-year study began in 1999. |
