“…Also Dahiya et al (1985) reported no spatial correlation of soil N-NO 3 . Meirvenne and Hofman (1989) observed ranges 9.5, 23 and 34 m for their data. Simard et al (2001) using a grid 30 × 30 m found that unlike indicators of N mineralization (clay, organic matter) soil nitrate in spring was not spatially structured.…”

“…The factors may be important in some cases (Meirvenne andHofman 1989, Ilsemann et al 2001). The comparison of a spatial variability, according to nugget, revealed greater differences in behaviour of N min or N-NH 4 + and N-NO 3 in the soil.…”

“…Ilsemann et al (2001) observed CV of late-fall N-NO 3¯ in 0-90 cm within 1-ha area of fields after cereals in three sites to range from 31 to 36%, Meirvenne and Hofman (1989) 21-31% in a 1 ha field after potatoes in autumn and spring, Dahiya et al (1985) between 19-23% in spring, Delin and Lindén (2002) 12, 32 and 36% in spring and 14, 28 and 47% after harvest of winter wheat in three years, respectively. Higher values were found by López-Granados et al (2002) under Mediterranean climate.…”

Spatial variability of soil mineral nitrogen N min + , N-NO 3 -) in a soil profile down to 60 cm was determined in a 19-ha experimental field in Prague-Ruzyně for four years. Winter wheat was grown in the years 2000 and 2001, oats in 2002 and mustard in 2003. Root length distribution and depth of the crops were determined at four locations representing different soil conditions within the experimental field. The coefficient of variation as the measure of the variability of nitrate N in topsoil and subsoil (0-30 and 30-60 cm, respectively) in the experimental years ranged between 18-39 and 20-37%, respectively. It was mostly the same or slightly greater in subsoil than in topsoil in respective years. The variability of ammonium N in topsoil and subsoil ranged between 4-58 and 11-27%, respectively. It was similar in topsoil and subsoil, except for autumn 2000. There was a positive relation between nitrate content in top and subsoil on all sampling terms. We did not find a relationship between N min contents in experimental years. Spatial dependencies were evaluated on the basis of model variogram parameters. The nugget value expressed as a percentage value of the total variogram's sill was used for the class of spatial dependence determination. When a spatial dependence of the observed factor was found it was within a range of medium-strong dependence. Only in two cases a strong spatial dependence was found. A considerable variability was also found out in the variogram's range, which was between 61 and 396 m. All these facts pose a problem for further actions, such as appropriate design of a sampling grid, measured data spatial interpolation and application maps design.

“…Furthermore, the highly variable results found in the literature concerning the size of the variation (see e.g. Alberts et al, 1977;White et al, 1987;Van Meirvenne & Hofman, 1989, MacDuff et al, 1990Cuttle et al, 1992 and suggest that for an actual sampling programme, the order of variation should be estimated first as well as the type of distribution, in order to use the most appropriate tests and estimates (White et al, 1987).…”

Comparisons of nitrate concentrations in soil core extracts and ceramic suction cup isolates were made on a coarse sand and a sandy loam to evaluate the methods for estimating nitrate concentrations percolating through the root zone. On the coarse sand the comparisons were made at 80 cm on three dates during the winter of 1988/89. For each date, 103 soil samples and 101 or 102 suction cup isolates were taken. On the sandy loam the comparisons were made at 25 and 80 cm on two dates in March 1990. For each date and depth, 57 soil samples and 55-57 suction cup isolates were taken. On the coarse sand the mean nitrate concentrations were the same for the two methods. On the sandy loam the results obtained using the two methods differed significantly in only one of the four comparisons. However, the results indicated that the suction cup isolates differed slightly from the volume-averaged concentrations obtained from the soil samples. The type of frequency distribution, normal or lognormal, seemed to be influenced both by the mean nitrate concentration and by the soil structure, and thus by the pattern of percolation. The size of sample required to estimate the mean nitrate concentration with a probability of 95% and a precision of 10% varied from 7 to 106.

“…Spatial variability of soil and crop parameters is influenced by time and by soil management. For example, spatial variability in soil nitrate decreased and the range increased from 9.5 m to 34m during winter after potato harvest (Van Meirvenne and Hofman, 1989) . A three dimensional study of nitrate in two 0.…”
