Oakes Test Area- Soil Data Evaluation

摘要

Reclamation soil scientists have completed a field review of the Oakes Test Area and a comprehensive review of the data collected in the test area during the past 10 years. Much of this data was collected by the U.S. Geological Survey and North Dakota State University. This data includes baseline soil's information and lysimeter data. A number of representative soils were resampled to determine soil changes as a result of irrigation. This paper will summarize the findings of this review. Soil information is related to drainage water quality and land productivity.
