2. Sand-based athletic fields - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand-based_athletic_fields

   Highly maintained areas of grass, such as those on an athletic field or on golf greens and tees, can be grown in native soil or sand-based systems. There are advantages and disadvantages to both that need to be considered before deciding what type of soil to grow turf in. [4] Native soils offer many positive qualities, such as high nutrient holding capacity, water holding capacity, and sure ...

3. Psammosere - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psammosere

   In an idealised model of a coastal psammosere at the seaward edge of the sand dune, the pH of the soil is typically alkaline/neutral with a pH of 7.0/8.0 particularly where shell fragments provide a significant component of the sand. Further inland, the soil's pH decreases as the soil gets more acidic. [7]

4. Water retention curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_retention_curve

   In 1907, Edgar Buckingham created the first water retention curve. [2] It was measured and made for six soils varying in texture from sand to clay. The data came from experiments made on soil columns 48 inch tall, where a constant water level maintained about 2 inches above the bottom through periodic addition of water from a side tube.

6. Loam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loam

   Soil types by clay, silt and sand composition as used by the United States Department of Agriculture. Loam (in geology and soil science) is soil composed mostly of sand (particle size > 63 micrometres (0.0025 in)), silt (particle size > 2 micrometres (7.9 × 10 −5 in)), and a smaller amount of clay (particle size < 2 micrometres (7.9 × 10 −5 in)).

7. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

   Soil bulk density, when determined at standardized moisture conditions, is an estimate of soil compaction. [3] Soil porosity consists of the void part of the soil volume and is occupied by gases or water. Soil consistency is the ability of soil materials to stick together. Soil temperature and colour are self-defining.
