  2. Soil texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_texture

    Soil texture is a classification instrument used both in the field and laboratory to determine soil classes based on their physical texture. Soil texture can be determined using qualitative methods such as texture by feel, and quantitative methods such as the hydrometer method based on Stokes' law .

  3. Physical properties of soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_properties_of_soil

    Soil texture is determined by the relative proportion of the three kinds of soil mineral particles, called soil separates: sand, silt, and clay. At the next larger scale, soil structures called peds or more commonly soil aggregates are created from the soil separates when iron oxides , carbonates , clay, silica and humus , coat particles and ...

  4. Soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil

    A soil texture triangle plot is a visual representation of the proportions of sand, silt, and clay in a soil sample. The interaction of the individual mineral particles with organic matter, water, gases via biotic and abiotic processes causes those particles to flocculate (stick together) to form aggregates or peds .

  5. Surface roughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_roughness

    Surface roughness, often shortened to roughness, is a component of surface finish (surface texture).It is quantified by the deviations in the direction of the normal vector of a real surface from its ideal form.

  6. Soil classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_classification

    Soil texture triangle showing the USDA classification system based on grain size. For soil resources, experience has shown that a natural system approach to classification, i.e. grouping soils by their intrinsic property (soil morphology), behaviour, or genesis, results in classes that can be interpreted for many diverse uses.

  8. Soil aggregate stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_Aggregate_Stability

    Soil sieve nests with dry soil aggregates after removal from a laboratory drying oven. Soil aggregate stability is a measure of the ability of soil aggregates—soil particles that bind together—to resist breaking apart when exposed to external forces such as water erosion and wind erosion, shrinking and swelling processes, and tillage.
