"soil structure describes the arrangement of the solid parts of the soil and of the pore space located between them."
The arrangement of soil particles into aggregates or clumps, which affects soil stability, air and water movement, and root growth.
"It is determined by how individual soil granules clump, bind together, and aggregate, resulting in the arrangement of soil pores between them."
"Soil structure has a major influence on water and air movement..."
"Soil structure...has a major influence on...biological activity..."
"Soil structure...has a major influence on...root growth and seedling emergence."
"There are several different types of soil structure."
"It is inherently a dynamic and complex system..."
"...that is affected by different factors."
