Soil Stabilisation Using Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag
Stabilisation is a broad sense for the various methods employed and modifying the properties of a soil to improve its engineering performance and used for a variety of engineering works. In today‟s day soil stabilisation is the major problem for civil engineers, either for construction of road and also for increasing the strength or stability of soil and reduces the construction cost. In this t...
متن کاملDeep roots and soil structure
There is convincing evidence for the benefits of deep rooting, especially in relation to drought resistance (Lopes & Reynolds, 2010; Uga et al., 2013). Modelling has shown that greater root depth allows increased water uptake and higher yields (Lilley & Kirkegaard, 2011). Deep rooting is thought to be improved by combinations of traits that confer steeper growth and an ability to penetrate stro...
متن کاملStabilisation of Engine Oil Contaminated Soil Using Cement Kiln Dust
The utilisation of industrial bi-products such as cement kiln dust (CKD) is of increasing importance as an option for stabilising contaminated sites due to its pozzolanic nature and also in view of minimising the environmental impact. The experimental programme was carried out in the present study to evaluate the efficacy of CKD as stabilising agent at different percentages 2%, 6%, and 14% (w/w...
متن کاملUncertainty Characterisation in Remotely Sensed Soil Moisture
Cover: A convective thunderstorm arrives near the small town of Hombori (Mali) during the AMMA field campaign (August 2005). This region is located in the Sahel, a transition zone between the Sahara and the Sudanian Savannas and stretches across the African continent. In this region, the spatial distribution of soil moisture affects the regional climate system including the spatial distribution...
متن کاملEditorial: Geomicrobes: Life in Terrestrial Deep Subsurface
The deep terrestrial biosphere is an intriguing research field linking to astrobiology and evolution of life on early Earth (Grosch and Hazen, 2015). Living in the deep, dark, anoxic, oligotrophic, saline, highly pressurized and often hot subsurface requires some striking characteristics of the inhabitants (Kieft, 2016). We still know only little about the biochemical processes actually taking ...
