2022, GeodermaCitation Excerpt :Adjacent smaller intact soil cores (5 cm diameter) were collected at 4–7, 14–17 and 24–27 cm depths for determining SWRCs, from which soil water storage properties, including field capacity (FC), available water capacity (AWC) and its components (readily available water capacity, RAWC, and non-readily available water capacity, NRAWC) (Fu et al., 2021a) were obtained. Samples were also collected at 0–10, 10–20 and 20–30 cm depths for measuring particle size distribution by the pipette method (Claydon, 1989), soil organic carbon (SOC) contents by a Leco CNS-2000 analyser (LECO Corporation, Saint Joseph, Michigan, USA) and water-stable aggregates by a wet-sieving technique adapted from Beare and Bruce (1993) which is detailed in Fu et al. (2021b). Aggregates in six size classes (5–2, 2–1, 1–0.5, 0.5–0.25, 0.25–0.053, and < 0.053 mm) were recovered, and mean weight dimeter (MWD) of water-stable aggregate was calculated.
