aggreg.stability | R Documentation |
It calculates the mean weight diameter (MWD), the geometric mean diameter (GMD) and the soil aggregates size distribution per class based on the mass of the aggregates retained in each sieve from a total soil mass used for the soil aggregate stability test.
aggreg.stability(sample.id = NA, dm.classes, aggre.mass)
sample.id |
optional; a character vector containing the sample names. |
dm.classes |
a numeric vector containing the aggregates classes, in mm. |
aggre.mass |
a |
The user must arrange a data.frame
with lines representing the samples and the columns representing the mass
of the aggregates retained in each one of the meshes (corresponding to each size class) in the aggregate stability test.
A data.frame
containing valor of MWD, GMD, total soil mass (total.mass
) used in the aggregate stability
test and the percentage of soil aggregate size distribution per class.
