Modificaciones de la Conductividad Hidráulica y Porosidad del Suelo Estimadas Mediante Infiltrómetro de Disco a Tensión

Soil quality/health indicators in a disturbed ecosystem in southern Ecuador

“…The main impacts of Ch-LUs are the reduction in recharge of aquifers, which produces an imbalance of surface runoff and causes for the loss of nutrients (Trucíos et al, 2011). They also modify some of the hydraulic properties (Aoki and Sereno, 2005), change the structure and bulk density (Jaiyeoba, 1995), alter the concentrations of organic matter (Guimarăes et al, 2013), while the contents of nitrogen, phosphorus, and soil microorganism populations decrease and/ or increase (Wang et al, 2019).…”
