[HTML][HTML] Analytical modelling of soil porosity and bulk density across the soil organic matter and land-use continuum
The thin layer of soil at the earth's surface supports life, storing water and nutrients for plant
uptake. These processes occur in the soil pore space, often half the soil volume, but our …
