Compaction

(l) Deep rip compacted surfaces to relieve compaction unless subsurface conditions dictate otherwise

At this stage the cells start to bind firmly together in a process called compaction, and cleavage continues as cellular differentiation begins.

Any removal, damage or compaction of the substratum surface can alter the thermal balance of the ground, triggering processes of permafrost degradation.

But from a certain degree both of the compaction of international (economic) relations and of the development of military technology war discards more and more as a method of conflict.

The study focused on saline and sodic lands but other degradation processes of great importance in Kenya include fertility decline, soil acidification and aluminium toxicity, organic matter decline, wind and water erosion, and soil compaction.

The major land degradation problems in Egypt are related to hydrological constraints which cause waterlogging, salinity and alkalinity, physical constraints such as deterioration of the soil structure and compaction, and biological constraints caused by a decline in soil organic matter leading to declining soil fertility.
