Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water quality issues related to salt content. Discusses what salts are, what causes saline problems, water movement in plants and soil, salinity hazard, occurrence of salinity damage, and symptoms of salinity damage. Gives advice on managing salt affected water, such as improving drainage, leaching excess salts, planting salt tolerant grasses, blending water, irrigating more frequently, and irrigation system modifications. States that "once you know the extent of the salinity problem, a comprehensive strategy can be implemented for using the water source while still meeting the demands for the turf site. The strategy developed should emphasize good drainage and regular leaching of salts." |
