Physical and Hydraulic Properties of Baked Ceramic Aggregates Used for Plant Growth Medium

Baked ceramic aggregates (fritted clay, arcillite) have been used for plant research both on the ground and in microgravity. Optimal control of water and air within the root zone in any gravity environment depends on physical and hydraulic properties of the aggregate, which were evaluated for 0.25-1...
