The effects of frost action on its bulk density, porosity, and hydraulic conductivity were investigated. The results indicate that freezing and thawing significantly reduced the bulk density of plough pan and increased its porosity and hydraulic conductivity. The reduction in the bulk density was closely related to the average daily soil minimum temperature and soil water content.展开更多
