Structural characteristics and behavior of fire‐modified soil aggregates
Abstract
The transport dynamics of burnt material in fluvial systems require attention since the off‐site transfer of soil material from wildfire‐affected slopes includes ash and nutrients which may have negative impacts on downstream water quality. The aim of this work is to explore the presence, structural characteristics, and fluvial behavior of fire‐modified soil aggregates in burnt soil material sampled from a water supply catchment near Sydney, …
