Similarities in Evolution of Aggregate Size Distributions during Successive Wetting and Drying Cycles of Heavy Textured Soils of Variable Clay Mineralogy

A phenomenon causing instability of soil structure and associated hydraulic properties in recently tilled soils is aggregate fragmentation induced by wetting and drying cycles. We analyzed data from three experiments in Puerto Rico, the UK and China measuring fragmentation and resulting evolution of...
