Abstract:The study aimed to investigate the effects of biochar (BC) application on hydraulic properties and resulting nitrogen (N) transport in a podzolic soil profile. Soil samples were collected from an agricultural research field in Pasadena, Newfoundland, Canada. Three types of leaching columns were prepared: (1) topsoil, (2) top and E-horizon soil, and (3) mixed soil (2:1 ratio of topsoil and E-horizon soil). Granular biochar (GBC) and powder biochar (PBC) were mixed with soils at the rate of 0%, 1% and 2% (w/w). … Show more
