Title A Study of Mechanisms and Supression of Evaporation of Water from Soils
Creator Wendt, C. W.
Description Extensive greenhouse experiments were conducted to evaluate chemicals not previously studied extensively for their potential as evaporation suppressants. Included in the studies were crude oil, anionics, cationics, nonionics, silicones, polysaccharide-gum mixtures, oil-latex mixtures, fatty alcohols, and reflectance materials. Of these compounds, only crude oil and crude oil-cationic mixtures were effective in suppressing soil water evaporation significantly when applied to smooth Olton loam...
