Clay Mineralogy, Ionic Composition, and pH Effects on Hydraulic Properties of Depositional Seals

Formation of a depositional seal is common in soils subjected to rainfall or sprinkler or surface irrigation; however, studies on its hydraulic properties are scarce. In this study, the effects of clay mineralogy, exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP), electrolyte concentration, and pH on the hydraul...

Zusammenfassung:Formation of a depositional seal is common in soils subjected to rainfall or sprinkler or surface irrigation; however, studies on its hydraulic properties are scarce. In this study, the effects of clay mineralogy, exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP), electrolyte concentration, and pH on the hydraulic properties of depositional seals were investigated. A silt loam packed in columns was leached with 5 g L-1 suspensions of reference montmorillonite, illite, and kaolinite with various ESPs (0-100), electrolyte concentrations (
