Polder Effects on Sediment-to-Soil Conversion: Water Table, Residual Available Water Capacity, and Salt Stress Interdependence
Figure 10
Fits of the calculated patterns on the measured profiles from the surface down to the top of salt water table and associated yields in 100 kg (2006 corn yields for K1a-b and K2a-b; 2008 corn yields for K2A-B, K3A-B, and K3C-D). The corn yields increase progressively from K1a-b to K3A-B following the increasing “slope” of the profiles. Dashed line = domains of mesophile to mesohygrophile and hygrophile profiles developed under the grassland.
