Studies on the retention and availability of water are scarce for humid subtropical and temperate regions in the Southern Hemisphere. The objectives of this study were to evaluate, generate and validate some pedotransfer functions (PTFs) to estimate the retention and the availability of water in soils of Santa Catarina. Were sampled 44 profiles, in areas under different vegetal coverings, to determine the water retention at suctions from zero to 1.500 kPa, the particles size distribution (7 classes), the organic matter content, the bulck density and particle density of soil, the conductivity hydraulic, and the aggregate stability. Regarding the attributes, soils with finer texture and / or more organic matter retain higher water content, where the organic matter is the main attribute that governs the availability of water, mainly in the surface horizons. Some classes of sand, mainly very fine sand, fine and coarse fractions, have greater effects on water availability than the silt fraction. The soils with contrasting textural classes, with high contents of clay or sand, have the same content of water available, although the sand soils have very low field capacity. Increased water availability occurs in soils with textural class loam, with higher content of organic matter and the lower availability occurs in sand class soils. In relation to lithology, there is a higher retention in soils derived from igneous extrusive rocks of the Serra Geral Formation, metamorphic, intrusive igneous, and sedimentary with fine texture, and a lower retention in those derived from rocks or sedimentary deposits rich in quartz. Increased availability of water occurs in soils derived from siltstone and less in soils derived from granite and recent alluvial deposits. Regarding soil classes (suborders), the water retention is higher in Cambisols, Ferralsols and Nitosols, and lower in Quartzarenic Neosols. In relation the regions, the soils of the Midwest and West, Serrano Highlands and Valley of Itajaí have high water retention, the intermediary are the Eastern Sierra, and lower in the coast. Humic Cambisols and Entisols, located in the Serrano Highlands has increased availability of water, mainly because of high contents of organic matter. In relation to soil types in the normative instruction n. 2/2008 of the MAPA (BRAZIL, 2008), which classifies the soils as a function of clay and sand, it is observed that is not adequate to classify the soils of Santa Catarina in terms of availability of water, although, the hydraulic conductivity of the unsaturated soil is lower in Type 1 soils. In relation the pedotransfer functions of literature, they better estimate the retention than water availability and with greater precision by the functions originated from climate regions subtropical and for the subsurface horizons of the soil. Most functions evaluated underestimates the water retention, with greater deviations in soils with 20-60 % clay. About the functions generated for the soils of Santa Catarina, the estimation of retention and availability of water was better in those adjusted separately for surface and subsurface horizons. To estimate the water retention, the point PTFs must be used including data of the texture, organic matter and their interactions. To estimate the availability, the point PTFs should include the five classes of sand, silt, clay, organic matter, soil bulk density, soil particles density, total porosity and their interactions. The parametrics PTFs estimate properly the water retention curve for most of the textural classes of the soil, when data of texture, organic matter, soil bulk density, soil particles density, total porosity and their interactions are included as predictors. The class PTFs estimate properly the water retention curve for most of the soil textural classes of Santa Catarina
Estudos sobre a retenção e disponibilidade de água são escassos para as regiões de clima subtropical ou temperado úmido do hemisfério sul. Os objetivos deste estudo foram avaliar, gerar e validar funções de pedotransferência (FPTs) para estimar a retenção e a disponibilidade de água em solos de Santa Catarina. Foram amostrados 44 perfis, em áreas sob diferentes coberturas vegetais, para determinar a retenção de água nas sucções de zero até 1.500 kPa, a distribuição do tamanho de partículas (7 classes), o teor de matéria orgânica, a densidade do solo e de partículas, a condutividade hidráulica e a estabilidade de agregados. Em relação aos atributos, solos com textura mais fina e/ou com maior teor de MO retêm maior conteúdo de água, sendo a MO é o principal atributo que governa a disponibilidade de água, principalmente nos horizontes superficiais. Algumas classes de areia, principalmente as areias muito fina, fina e grossa, possuem maiores efeitos sobre disponibilidade de água do que a fração silte. Os solos com classes texturais contrastantes, com elevados teores de argila ou de areia, disponibilizam o mesmo conteúdo de água disponível, embora os arenosos tenham baixa capacidade de campo. Maior conteúdo de água disponível ocorre em solos das classes com textura franca e com maior teor de MO, enquanto que a menor disponibilidade ocorre em solos da classe areia. Em relação à litologia, ocorre uma maior retenção em solos derivados de rochas ígneas extrusivas da Formação Serra Geral, e de rochas metamórficas, ígneas intrusivas e sedimentares de textura fina, e menor nos derivados de rochas ou depósitos sedimentares ricos em quartzo. Maior disponibilidade de água ocorre em solos derivados de siltitos e o menor em solos derivados de granito e de depósitos aluvionares recentes. Em relação às classes de solos (subordens), a retenção de água é maior nos Cambissolos, Nitossolos e Latossolos e menor nos Neossolos Quartzarênicos. Em relação às regiões, os solos do Meio Oeste e Oeste, Planalto Serrano e Vale do Itajaí possuem elevada retenção de água, euquanto que, nos da Serra Leste é intermediária e os do Litoral é baixa. Os Cambissolos Húmicos e os Neossolos Litólicos, localizados no Planalto Serrano, têm maior disponibilidade de água, principalmente devido aos elevados teores de matéria orgânica. Em relação aos tipos de solos da instrução normativa n. 2/2008 do MAPA (BRASIL, 2008), que classifica os solos em função do teor de argila e areia, observa-se que a mesma não é adequada para classificar os solos catarinenses quanto a disponibilidade de água. Entretanto, a condutividade hidráulica não saturada é menor nos solos do Tipo 1. Em relação às funções de pedotransferência (FPTs) publicadas na literatura, elas estimam melhor a retenção do que a disponibilidade de água, com maior precisão pelas funções originadas de regiões de clima subtropical e para os horizontes subsuperficiais do solo. A maioria das funções avaliadas subestima a retenção de água, com erros maiores nos solos com 20 a 60% de argila. Quanto às funções geradas para os solos de Santa Catarina, as que melhor estimam a retenção e disponibilidade de água são aquelas ajustadas separadamente para os horizontes superficiais e subsuperficiais. Para estimar a retenção de água devem ser utilizadas as FPTs pontuais que incluem dados de textura, matéria orgânica do solo e suas interações. Para estimar a disponibilidade de água devem ser utilizadas as FPTs pontuais que utilizam as cinco classes de areia, silte, argila, matéria orgânica, densidade do solo e de partículas, porosidade total e suas interações. As FPTs paramétricas estimam adequadamente a curva de retenção de umidade do solo para a maioria das classes texturais, quando são incluídos dados de textura, matéria orgânica, densidade do solo e de partículas, porosidade total e suas interações como variáveis preditoras. As FPTs de classe estimam adequadamente a curva de retenção de água do solo para a maioria das classes texturais dos solos de Santa Catarina

Full textThe coastal marshlands are territories generally reclaimed on primary fluvio-marine sediments. They result from hydraulic managements and/or polderization which may date from the Middle Ages. Historically these hydraulic managements were built for goals of wholesomeness, breeding and farming. They isolate two territories: the dried marshes and the wet marshes. For the intensive cereal crops the slow drying caused by land reclamation was recently improved by the drainage, in part for increase the depth of desalinization and decrease waterlogging. Nevertheless, these territories remain characterized by shallow ground water of initial salt water. Consequently, the hydric profiles are governed by the meteoric conditions including the Evapotranspiration, the rainfall, but also the capillarity rises from the salt groundwater. Moreover, the clay dominated nature of the soils and their drastic shrinkage properties govern the hydrodynamic functioning and the soil structure behavior.The first part of the work was the monitoring of the water content and salinity profiles in drained cereal crops and in undrained grasslands. These measurements have been completed by the ground water level and tensiometric monitoring. The final goal was the calculation and modeling of the available water capacity (AWC) and plant available water (PAW) profiles. In these systems mainly supplied by the capillarity rises, the root network gets water in the subsurface vadose zone and then in the deeper saturated groundwater zone. The water content characteristic of the interface between the vadose and saturated zone was determined by comparison between the clay material state paths along its shrinkage curve and along its compaction curve. The PAW profiles were calculated from the water content profiles and then compared to the AWC profiles. The PAW profiles have been equated as polynomial second degree equations. In these shallow groundwater environments the PAW profiles have been modeled taking into account an easy measurable surface parameter which includes the soil structure behavior and the meteoric conditions: i.e. the water content measured at 10 cm depth. The PAW modelling remains sufficiently realistic to be used as a tool for farming management. Two preliminary studies were added to this work: - the measurement of effective thermal conductivity of the clayey soils by the transient hot wire method, and the modeling of the effective thermal conductivity of biphasic air-clay and water-clay media, but also triphasic unsaturated air-water-clay media. The prospect is the modeling of thermal and hydric transfer from the surface to the depth. - and the elaboration of a protocol of impregnation - hardening for wet clay dominated soils by HEMA resins. This impregnation allows the making of thin sections in these clay materials with conservation of their initial wet structures. The prospective is the quantitative petrography at the root - clay matrix interface along vertical profiles in clayey soils at different degrees of saturation and different structures
