Which earth sphere causes the movement of soils by wind?
cryosphere
How does sediment size affect water flowing through the soil?
Usually small grains pack together well and there are only tiny air gaps between them for water to trickle through. Soils like this drain slowly. Clay soils are an example. Conversely, large grains leave large gaps between them and this allows water to flow freely. Sandy soils are like this.
Which are the different types of soils found in India give the explanation?
There are 8 types of soils in India. 1.Alluvial soils 2.Black soils 3.Red soils 4.Laterite soils 5.Moutainous soils 6.Desert soils 7.Saline soils 8.Peat soils
Is all soil the same?
No you can get sandy soils, clay soils, loamy soils, stony soils etc depending on what they consist of
Do clay soils have more permeability than sandy soils?
Sandy soils are much more permeable that clay soils.
What 3 types of soil that impact break down and movement of pesticides?
The 3 types of soil that impact break down and movement of pesticides are cool soils, dry soils, and in clay soils.
What is liquid limit?
The arbitary limit of water content that represents the boundary between the liquid & plastic state is called as liquid limit.
Which earth sphere causes the movement of soils by wind?
cryosphere
What term is defined as the movement of water from plants soils into the atmosphere?
erosion

cryosphere
What is the defined as the movement of water from plants soils and oceans into the atmosphere?
This process is called evapotranspiration.

How does mass movement affect people?
The productive capacity of the soils people use is likely to be affected by mass movement erosion.

Why liquid limit and plastic limit are important?
The Atterberg limits of a soil are used as an integral part of several engineering classification systems to characterize fine-grained soils. Also these limits are used directly in specifications for controlling soil for use in fills, and in semi-empirical methods of design. A wide variety of engineering properties of soils have also been correlated to the liquid limit, plastic limit, and plasticity index of soils (i.e. Compressibility, Permeability, and Strength).
