Elevated soil nitrogen pools after conversion of turfgrass to water-efficient residential landscapes

Abstract: As a result of uncertain resource availability and growing populations, city managers are implementing conservation plans that aim to provide services for people while reducing household resource use. For example, in the US, municipalities are incentivizing homeowners to replace their water-intensive turfgrass lawns with water-efficient landscapes consisting of interspersed drought-tolerant shrubs and trees with rock or mulch groundcover (e.g. xeriscapes, rain gardens, water-wise landscapes). While these strat… Show more

“…Sand, silt, and clay contents were determined by the hydrometer method and classified according to the United States Department of Agriculture textural classification system (USDA, 2019). The gravimetric moisture of each representative sample was determined in triplicate by its weighing before and after drying at 105 • C for 72h (Claessen, 1997); while the gravimetric field capacity (FC) was determined in triplicate as described by Heavenrich and Hall (2016) by its saturation and drainage undercover at room temperature, followed by its weighing before and after drying at 105 • C for 72h (Claessen, 1997).…”
