“…The maximum modelled SCIs for single operations, in combination with their proportion of wheeled area, are thus crucial to model the SCI for entire rotations. For a more detailed explanation see Rücknagel (2007) and Rücknagel et al (2015).…”

“…Rücknagel et al (2015) validated the model based on measurements of dry bulk density and k S . Like the results presented, Rücknagel et al (2015) found that the modelled SCIs and changes in dry bulk density are lower for the subsoil (35 cm) than for the lower topsoil (20 cm). In this trial, for the soil depths 22e28 cm and 32e38 cm, which are used to validate the model, there are only slight differences in soil structure between crop rotations measured.…”

“…For example, this means that the soil compaction risks and greenhouse gas or energy balances can be modelled on the basis of the same farm machinery. By using the standardisation function presented by Rücknagel et al (2015), it is possible to incorporate this information into sustainability assessments of farming systems. Rücknagel et al (2015) validated the model based on measurements of dry bulk density and k S .…”

Soil compaction is a serious threat to soil functions and ecosystem services. Persistent soil deformation takes place when mechanical stress exceeds soil strength. Risk assessment models typically assume soil to be elastic to a precompression stress level and plastic above this threshold. Currently used procedures for estimating soil precompression stress imply applied stress in a logarithmic form that has been criticized. We performed uniaxial, confined compression tests on 117 soil samples with a well‐defined stress history. Strain and stress were recorded at 200 levels of stress in the range of 0–1 MPa. Soil compressibility was calculated as incremental strain per incremental stress, using stress in arithmetic scale. For a given sample, a local minimum in compressibility appeared close to the preload applied to the sample prior to the compression test. This yield stress is suggested as an expression of soil precompression stress. Not all samples displayed a yield stress. Primarily soil exposed to a high preload did not exhibit a clear stress level with change in compressibility. This indicates that a physically based stress level pointing out a transition to plastic conditions will not exist for all soils. Our observation calls for new concepts in risk assessment. Tests with interpolation between a limited number of data points indicate that the yield stress—if existing—may be detected from classical compression data.
