  1. Water evaporation from bare soil 

    Lehmann P. (2023)
    Encyclopedia of Soils in the Environment, Second Edition
    Evaporation of water emitted from soil surfaces is a key process of the hydrologic cycle and the surface energy balance. It can be limited by the solar energy to vaporize water, the amount of precipitation, the soil hydraulic properties and surface characteristics (albedo, roughness, and presence of residues). Evaporation rates are large for wet soil surfaces with high atmospheric demand (controlled by energy, vapor pressure deficit, and ...

  2. Bioturbation—Physical processes 

    Ruiz S.; Hallett P.D.; Or D. (2023)
    Encyclopedia of Soils in the Environment, Second Edition
    Bioturbation is the physical movement of soil by fauna or plant roots. The primary goal of bioturbation is for organisms to access resources in soil such as food, plant nutrients and water. Bioturbation includes soil translocation by burrowing and ingestion, soil deformation by organism expansion, and soil stabilization by compounds secreted by organisms and their tissue. These processes are extremely important to the formation of soil ...

  5. Accelerating rehabilitation through AR/VR solutions 

    Calderon-Sastre E.; Renganathan G.; Palani P.; et al. (2024)
    Smart VR/AR/MR Systems for Professionals
    Rehabilitation plays a crucial role in restoring or optimizing physical, mental, and social functions compromised by illness, injury, trauma, or aging. With an aging population, an increase in chronic diseases, and a shortage of rehabilitation professionals, the demand for rehabilitation services is growing. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the need for rehabilitation due to disabilities caused by the disease. This chapter ...
