The swell-shrink behavior is attributed to the wetting and drying of the soil mass. In this study, morphology, physico-chemical characteristics and classification of vertisols that were formed on ...

Doyle's Brotherony is a large-scale 1106 hectare (2733 acre) western NSW mixed farming and grazing property with irrigation.

Loose, unconsolidated (not cemented together into a solid rock), soil or sediments (from sands to large boulders), eroded, deposited and reshaped by water in some form in a non-marine setting.
