For the UCS test,
peat soil with three different moisture contents were prepared, which are peat with moisture content of 1210% as the field moisture content (later referred as peat A), moisture content of 803% (later referred as peat B), and moisture content of 380% (later referred as peat C).
In clay soil the vibration near the source increases higher, but in long distance acceleration decreases more compared with
peat soil.
The maximum accumulative increase in [N.sub.2]O emissions was for the
peat soil added with raw organic matter, whereas the minimum accumulative was for the flooded
peat soil added with raw organic matter.
Humic substances, a major fraction of dissolved organic matter in boreal
peat soils [40, 41], and carboxyl acids [19, 42] are largely responsible of the low pH of DOC.
The study results showed that, in general, the spatial distribution of forest site types is not determined by soil groups, except dry forest ecosystems, where Cladinosocallunosa, Vacciniosa and Myrtillosa are closely related to Arenosols, Hylocomiosa to Albeluvisols, Aegopodiosa to Luvisols, and all of the investigated forest site types on wet and drained
peat soil are related to Histosols.
The soil was classified as
peat soil according to its soil characteristics.
Consistent with other studies, levels of aerobic bacteria, actinomycete bacteria, and yeasts/molds were 1-2 log CFU/g higher in light
peat soils compared to both of the dark
peat soils.
Additionally, he noted that the
peat soils were reverting to a fine-grained material susceptible to wind erosion.
Nutrient input to and output from the sand and
peat soil occurs via stream flooding in this location.
As it filters through the
peat soil on the hills, it often picks up a subtle flavor and tea color (the plentiful supply of water and peat is central to the production of Scotch whisky).
The Sarawak Ministry of Utilities said the prolonged dry spell and
peat soil fires in Mukah have disrupted the water supply to Kampung Penipah, KampungTekajong and Kampung Bruit.
