Hydrostructural Pedology: A Novel Scientific Discipline for Physical Modelling of ‘Green Water’ Dynamics in Soil-plant-atmosphere System | Chapter 4 | Research Highlights in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 3

 Using hydrostructural pedology, a new paradigm of soil characterization and modeling in agro environmental lores, we were suitable to show that the “ green water ” conception of agriculturists corresponds exactly to the pedostructural water conception which was physically defined in this new paradigm. The water in the pedostructure of soils is composed of two types of water the micro water and the macro water. These two water pools are nested one in the other within the soil summations. They can either be set up inside primary summations or outside of these summations in the interpedal space, depending on their chemical eventuality in relation to their position in the pedostructure. Using this new paradigm, a abecedarian drugs of the pedostructural water might be constructed. Eventually, the soil medium can now be considered as the position in which the free water, blue water from downfall or irrigation, and infiltrates by graveness through the macro severance space of the soil, is incompletely absorbed by the pedostructure, and becomes also the ‘ green water ’ of the soil. In reality, soil green water is the soil water reserve that's accessible to plant roots and is latterly occurred into the cover by the shops. The soil- water model Kamel ®, developed grounded on this new paradigm, is uniquely suitable to physically pretend the contrary dynamic cycles of these two kinds of water( blue and green) within the soil- factory- atmosphere system, their exchanges and equilibrium countries with time, at each depth of the pedon. For the sustainable development and operation of agrarian zones, significant counteraccusations are offered for the strategy of soil- water characterisation, mapping, and modelling.
