It is called anerobic decomposition. Air in the soil allows for drainage, gives roots a place to grow, and keeps methane from building up by allowing it a ready escape. …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

LAP. X BV) Soil porosity (f) is the ratio of pore volume (Vf) to total soil volume (Vt) f = Vf / Vt It is generally between 30-60%.  Porosity tells us nothing about the relative amounts of large and small pores, and should be interpreted with caution. Generally, high porosity (e.g. 60%) is an indicator of lack of compaction and good soil conditions. Diunduh 7/2/2012

7 FAKTOR KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH
Faktor‐faktor yang mempengaruhi komposisi udara tanah : Iklim Sifat tanah seperti tekstur, struktur, tinggi permukaan air tanah Sifat tanaman Keterdapatan tanaman mengurangi kadar O2 dan menambah CO2, bo dan kegiatan jasad renik CO2 > (jika aerob), CH4 > (jika anaerob). The composition of soil air is different from that of the atmosphere because it cannot readily mix with air above the soil. The metabolic activity of plant roots, microbes and soil fauna all affect the composition of soil air. For example, the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in soil (between 0.3 and 3%) is often several hundred times higher than the 0.03% found in the atmosphere. In extreme cases oxygen can be as low as 5-10%, compared to 20% in the atmosphere. Soil air has a higher moisture content than the atmosphere, with relative humidity approaching 100% under optimum conditions. (humidity is not as variable in soil as it is in the atmosphere).   The amount and composition of air in soil are dynamic and to a large degree are determined by water content and activity of soil organisms.   Diunduh 7/2/2012

10 PERTUKARAN UDARA Komposisi tersebut selalu berubah‐ubah tergantung beberapa faktor yaitu : Kecepatan pertukaran udara tanah dan atmosfer, tergantung : o Tanah : tekstur, struktur, B.O, KL, suhu o Iklim : angin, tekanan udara, & suhu o Kedalaman dari muka tanah The exchange of gases between the atmosphere and soil is facilitated by two mechanisms: (1)   Mass flow (convection) of air - the moving force is a gradient of total gas pressure, and it results in the entire mass of air streaming from a zone of higher pressure to one of lower pressure. Mass flow of air is much less important than diffusion, except perhaps in layers at or very near the soil surface. (2)   Diffusion - moving force is gradient of partial pressure of any constituent member of air to migrate from a zone of higher to lower pressure, even while air as a whole may remain stationary. In other words, through diffusion each gas moves in a direction determined by its own partial pressure. Diunduh 7/2/2012

11 Pertukaran Udara Tanah/Pembaruan
Komposisi Udara Tanah Pertukaran udara tanah & udara atmosfer dapat terjadi karena adanya gerakan udara. Ada 3 faktor yg mempengaruhi pembaruan udara dalam tanah; yaitu : Proses difusi Aliran masa gas Air hujan The oxygen flux density due to diffusion is proportional to the oxygen concentration gradient along the axis, and the proportionality factor is called the (oxygen) diffusion coefficient (D). This statement is an example of Fick’s Law of Diffusion, which can be expressed as follows: J = - D dC/dX where J is the diffusive flux density of the gas (oxygen in this example) (mg/m2/s) along the x-axis, C is oxygen concentration in the soil air (units are g/m3), x is distance along x-axis (m), dC/dx is the oxygen concentration gradient (g/m4), and D is the (oxygen) diffusion coefficient (m2/s).

12 DIFUSI GAS Gerak acak molekul‐molekul gas, yg terjadi karena perbedaan tekanan parsiil masa-masa gas, namun tekanan total sama Untuk terjadinya proses difusi ini, di dlm tanah harus tersedia cukup ruang/pori‐pori efektif The oxygen diffusion coefficient (D) for diffusion in air is about 10,000 times as large as the coefficient for diffusion in water. Thus the oxygen diffusion coefficient (D) of a soil is very strongly influenced by three factors: (1)   air-filled porosity (Va/Vt), which decreases with increasing soil water content (2)   the continuity of air-filled pores, which decreases with increasing soil water content (3)   the tortuosity of air-filled pores, which increases with increasing soil water content.

34 ‘Goose’ Your Lawn for Good Soil Health
  By Shayne Hale June 2, 2011 Aeration is essential and fairly simple to do. Most rental centers have a lawn aerator that they will rent out by the day or perhaps by the hour. This machine is simply a large drum with spikes or tubes around the drum. Usually gas powered, this machine removes “plugs” of soil, thereby allowing the soil to breathe, and decreases soil compaction, which increases microbial action in the soil. Also, lawn aerating promotes deeper root growth and, in time, a healthier lawn with fewer weeds. A healthy, robust lawn should choke out intruders. Sumber:

35 Lawn Aeration for a Greener, Thicker, Healthier Lawn!
More Benefits of Lawn Aeration Aeration loosens compacted soil and breaks up thatch. It allows water and other nutrients to seep into the soil, encouraging new root growth and establishing a stronger, deeper root base for a lusher, healthier turf. Another benefit of aeration is the reduction of water runoff and puddling. Lawn Aeration permits the root system to go deeper where the ground temperature is cooler and moister, allowing the grass to stay greener longer in the heat of the summer. Remember, 90% of grass is in the roots! A healthy root system is a must for an attractive lawn. Oxygen in the soil is vital for healthy roots. Root growth is inhibited by clay and compacted soils because of a restricted oxygen supply. Aerating improves rooting and problem soils by allowing air into the soil. Umber:

UDARA TANAH Air can fill soil pores as water drains or is removed from a soil pore by evaporation or root absorption. The network of pores within the soil aerates, or ventilates, the soil. This aeration network becomes blocked when water enters soil pores. Not only are both soil air and soil water very dynamic parts of soil, but both are often inversely related: An increase in soil water content often causes a reduction in soil aeration. Likewise, reducing soil water content may mean an increase in soil aeration. Since plant roots require water and oxygen (from the air in pore spaces), maintaining the balance between root and aeration and soil water availability is a critical aspect of managing crop plants.

ARTMOSFER TANAH The soil atmosphere is not uniform throughout the soil because there can be localized pockets of air. The relative humidity of soil air is close to 100%, unlike most atmospheric humidity. Air in the soil often contains several hundred times more carbon dioxide. Sumber:

Air, Udara, Rocks, Minerals, Nutrients, Organic Matter, Well-decomposed organic matter – Humus, Organisms The spaces between the solids are called pores. Good soil contains lots of these and is described as porus. This way air can easily circulate through the soil to reach plant roots and allow water to drain easily. The solid portion is mostly rock particles and bits of dead material and organic matter. Sumber:

48 SIFAT OLAH TANAH Soil tilth is a measurement of the balance between basic soil elements: mineral, air, water and organic matter.

53 PERGERAKAN GAS DALAM TANAH
The oxygen diffusion coefficient (D) for diffusion in air is about 10,000 times as large as the coefficient for diffusion in water. Thus the oxygen diffusion coefficient (D) of a soil is very strongly influenced by three factors: 1)   air-filled porosity (Va/Vt), which decreases with increasing soil water content 2)   the continuity of air-filled pores, which decreases with increasing soil water content 3)   the tortuosity of air-filled pores, which increases with increasing soil water content. Growth of most plants and survival of their roots normally requires maintenance of adequate soil oxygen.  This in turn requires maintainance of soil water well below saturation, to enable rapid gas diffusion in the soil.  Sumber:

POROSITAS TANAH Soil porosity (f) is the ratio of pore volume (Vf) to total soil volume (Vt) f = Vf / Vt It is generally between 30-60%.  Porosity tells us nothing about the relative amounts of large and small pores, and should be interpreted with caution. Generally, high porosity (e.g. 60%) is an indicator of lack of compaction and good soil conditions. Sumber:

KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH The soil air contains a number of gases of which nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapour are the most important. Soil air constantly moves from the soil pores into the atmosphere and from the atmosphere into the pore space. Soil air and atmospheric air differ in the compositions. Soil air contains a much greater proportion of carbon dioxide and a lesser amount of oxygen than atmospheric air. At the same time, soil air contains a far great amount of water vapour than atmospheric air. The amount of nitrogen in soil air is almost the same as in the atmosphere. Sumber:

56 FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH
SIFAT DAN KONDISI TANAH: The quantity of oxygen in soil air is less than that in atmospheric air. The amount of oxygen also depends upon the soil depth. The oxygen content of the air in lower layer is usually less than that of the surface soil. This is possibly due to more readily diffusion of the oxygen from the atmosphere into the surface soil than in the subsoil. Light texture soil or sandy soil contains much higher percentage than heavy soil. The concentration of CO2 is usually greater in subsoil probably due to more sluggish aeration in lower layer than in the surface soil. Sumber:

57 FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH
JENIS TANAMAN: Plant roots require oxygen, which they take from the soil air and deplete the concentration of oxygen in the soil air. Soils on which crops are grown contain more CO2 than fallow lands. The amount of CO2 is usually much greater near the roots of plants than further away. It may be due to respiration by roots. Sumber:

58 FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH
AKTIVITAS MIKROBA TANAH: The microorganisms in soil require oxygen for respiration and they take it from the soil air and thus deplete its concentration in the soil air. Decomposition of organic matter produces CO2 because of increased microbial activity. Hence, soils rich in organic matter contain higher percentage of CO2. Sumber:

59 FAKTOR YANG MEMPENGARUHI KOMPOSISI UDARA TANAH
VARIASI MUSIMAN: The quantity of oxygen is usually higher in dry season than during the monsoon. Because soils are normally drier during the summer months, opportunity for gaseous exchange is greater during this period. This results in relatively high O2 and low CO2 levels. Temperature also influences the CO2 content in the soil air. High temperature during summer season encourages microorganism activity which results in higher production of CO2. Sumber:

60 GAS DALAM TANAH The air space in soil contains oxygen to provide for respiration of plant roots and soil organisms. This air space could also contain carbon dioxide as a product of respiration of plant roots and soil organisms. KomposiSI UDARA dalam TANAH dan atmosphere: Nitrogen: Soil Air: 79.2% Atmosphere: 79.0% Oxygen: Soil Air: 20.6% Atmosphere: 20.9% Carbon Dioxide: Soil Air: 0.25% Atmosphere: 0.03% Gas molecules in soil are in continuous thermal motion according to the kinetic theory of gases, there is also collision between molecules - a random walk. In soil, a concentration gradient causes net movement of molecules from high concentration to low concentration, this gives the movement of gas by diffusion. Numerically, it is explained by Fick's law of diffusion. Soil gas includes air, water vapour and the pollutants that might be picked up from the soil underneath a building and carried by air leakage into the building. Sumber: Russell, E.

Shoot and root dry weights and length of mycorrhizal plants increased with O2 concentration up to 16%. Mycorrhizal plants at 21% O2 or non-aerated controls were smaller than those at 12 and 16% O2. Non-mycorrhizal plants had lower shoot and root dry wts than mycorrhizal plants at all O2 levels except at 0%. Phosphorus concentration in mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants differed significantly but did not increase with increasing O2. Mycorrhizal plants contained higher quantities of N, K, Ca and Mg than non-mycorrhizal and showed positive response in nutrient uptake to increase in soil O2. Inoculation and increased soil O2 resulted in higher concentrations of K and Mg but not of N and Ca. The development of Glomus macrocarpus exhibited quantitative and qualitative response to different soil O2 levels. New Phytologist   >   Vol. 88, No. 4, Aug., 1981 …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

62 AERASI TANAH - HASIL TANAMAN
Soil aeration is a property which relates to the ability to provide air of suitable composition to plant roots and to organisms growing in the soil. Good aeration depends on adequate exchange of air in the soil with air from the atmosphere. If a soil is well-aerated, the composition of the soil air will not be greatly different from that in the atmosphere. If aeration is impeded, the soil air will be higher in carbon dioxide and lower in oxygen than the atmosphere above the soil. Plant roots and soil organisms use oxygen and release carbon dioxide so lack of free interchange with the atmosphere may result in appreciably altered composition of the soil air. Diffusion of air through soils seems to be much more directly dependent on the volume of air-filled pores than on pore sizes. …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

63 THE EFFECT OF SOIL WATER AND AERATION ON SEED GERMINATION
S. DASBERG and K. MENDEL The Volcani Institute of Agricultural Research Bet Dagan, Israel Received January 25, 1971. The time rate of germination and the final germination percentage of Oryzopsis holciformis decreased with increasing water stress. The optimum matric potential for germination was–0.005 bar in coarse sand and –0.5 bar in sandy loam soil. This discrepancy was explained by changes in the rate of water-supply to the seed, as determined by the area of contact between seed and germination medium, and by the hydraulic conductivity of the medium. At high soil moisture potentials germination also decreased. Such a decrease was not found at equivalent osmotic potentials. It seems that this decrease in germination was brought about by the thickening of the water films around the seeds, which interfered with oxygen diffusion. This assumption was supported by determinations with Pt electrodes, and by previous work on germination at lowered oxygen concentrations. J. Exp. Bot. (1971) 22 (4): …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

Heuberger, J. Livet, W. Schnitzler After heavy rainfall or irrigation, the macropores of the soil are filled with water leading to limited gas diffusion and reduced oxygen content of the soil air for a certain period of time. In this situation, soil aeration by means of forced injection of atmospheric air into the soil via a subsurface drip irrigation system, is thought to accelerate the depletion of water from macropores and increase the oxygen concentration in the soil air. In 1999, cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. convar. botrytis (L.) Alef. var. botrytis L.), cv. 'Fargo' and sweet corn (Zea mays L. convar. saccharata Koern.), cv.

The drip laterals for irrigation (S-I) and fertigation (S-F) were placed 5 cm below the soil surface. In another fertigation treatment (Sub-F) and for fertigation cum aeration (Sub-F-A), the laterals were placed at 15 cm soil depth (Subsurface).

66 REDOX POTENTIAL IN IRRIGATED DESERT SOILS AS AN INDICATOR OF AERATION STATUS
B. D. Meek and L. B. Grass The redox potential (Eh) of irrigated desert soils was evaluated under a wide range of conditions. Factors important in controlling Eh were temperature, flooding time, soil water content, and energy source. Field heterogeneity necessitated using 10 to 20 electrodes (placed in a 30-cm square) to characterize a treatment. The Eh varied over a short distance with variations not due to poisoning or erratic electrode readings. A 5C increase in temperature at the 15-cm depth resulted in a 50-mV decrease in redox potential. The length of soil saturation time correlated directly with the decrease in Eh. When the soil was not saturated during irrigation (sprinkler or drip), Eh decreased less than when the soil was flooded. The amount of energy available to microorganisms has a major effect on how low the Eh decreased in a flooded soil. SSSAJ Vol. 39 No. 5, p.  …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

67 SOIL AERATION EFFECTS ON ROOT GROWTH AND ACTIVITY
ISHS Acta Horticulturae 504: VI Symposium on Stand Establishment and ISHS Seed Symposium SOIL AERATION EFFECTS ON ROOT GROWTH AND ACTIVITY B. Huang, D. Scott NeSmith Poor soil aeration or oxygen deficiency is a major factor limiting seedling establishment. Oxygen deficiency in the soil can occur because of improper soil management, such as over-irrigation and soil compaction; poor soil quality, such as heavy fine-textured soils or layered soils with inadequate drainage; excessive rainfall or flooding; usage of excessively small containers for transplant production. Inferior stand establishment can occur due to the inhibitory effects of low aeration on root elongation, proliferation, viability, respiratory capacity, carbohydrate accumulation, hormone synthesis, and water and nutrient uptake. Plants that are tolerant to low soil aeration may develop morphological and anatomical features in roots that facilitate oxygen utilization and plant survival of low oxygen stress. These adaptive responses include the formation of aerenchyma tissues in the root cortex, development of adventitious roots near the soil surface, and increases in root diameter. …. Diunduh 7/2/2012

Hilgardia 35, for all treatments and depths. In summer each year, ODR was adequate in the shallow soils of all treatments, though often still significantly lower in compacted soils. At 30cm, there were no consistent differences in ODR between compacted and uncompacted soil. Significant differences in FRD due to compaction treatments were inconsistent and limited to the upper 9cm of soil in years 2 and 3. Reduced FRD in compacted soils may be a response to the reduced ODR in spring. There were no differences in DBH, twig growth, leaf area or dieback rating. Given the minimal difference in root growth, the lack of differences in top growth are understandable. This controlled study, and others preceding it, have failed to clearly show the underlying causes of tree decline and death commonly associated with soil compaction and addition of fill soil in real landscapes. ….

MacLeod Canadian Journal of Soil Science, 2000, 80:(2) , /S99-054 Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of performing soil aeration either before or after spreading liquid manure in forage production systems. The experiments included eight trials performed in 1996 using a non-interfering diffusion method to determine ammonia (NH3) flux emissions from both aerated and control plots. For all eight trials, the manure application rate was  L ha−1. The average NH3 loss for the aerated treatment was 67.3 kg ha−1 while the loss for the control plots was 63.0 kg ha−1. Although differences in the NH3 loss between treatments were low, substantial variations were observed between individual trials depending on the prevailing meteorological conditions.To further evaluate the effects of soil aeration, 11 trials were carried out on Nova Scotia dairy farms in 1996 and 1997 to identify yield effects. Manure application rates ranged from to  L ha−1. The average forage yield on aerated treatments was 9.4% below control treatments (i.e., manure without aeration). Of the 11 trials, 9 resulted in significantly (P < 0.05) reduced yield with soil aeration. Key words: Liquid manure, ammonia volatilisation, soil aeration Diunduh 7/2/

The Effect of Aeration on the Growth of Spartina alterniflora Loisel.(pp )   Rick A. Linthurst . A greenhouse experiment was designed to investigate the correlations between waterlogging and aeration, and associated changes in pH, redox potentials and sulfide concentrations, on the growth of Spartina alterniflora Loisel. Elemental concentrations of the aerial and root material were determined and used for correlations with growth response. Redox potentials adjusted to pH 7 (Eh 7) ranged from -184 mv to 5 mv and were highly correlated (r) with aerial and root dry weight biomass (.97 and .97, respectively) and plant height (1.0) The range of soil pH at the conclusion of the study was 6.07 to 6.74 and was negatively correlated with aerial and root dry weight biomass. Sulfide concentrations ranged from 10-2 to 10-7 M and vorrelations with aerial and root dry weights and height were -.85, -.85 and -87, respectively. High negative correlations were found between sodium and sulfur concentrations and S. alterniflora growth. Positive correlations between potassium, phosphorus, manganese, zinc, copper, iron and growth response were also observed. Correlations of elemental concentrations of the plants with redox potentials and/or pH suggest that these two physical variables may be responsible in part for the regulation of S. alterniflora growth in nature by regulating availability of nutritional elements.

The floodplains of major rivers act as natural storage reservoirs, enabling excess water to spread out over a wide area, which reduces its depth and speed. Wetlands close to the headwaters of streams and rivers can slow down rainwater runoff and spring snowmelt so that it doesn’t run straight off the land into water courses.

PENTINGNYA WETLANDS Kualiats Air – Water movement VERY slow – Sediments settle – Nutrients utilized by plant life – Effective pollution filter (agricultural and urban) Groundwater recharge Shoreline protection Wetland systems are directly linked to groundwater and a crucial regulator of both the quantity and quality of water found below the ground. Wetland systems that are made of permeable sediments like limestone or occur in areas with highly variable and fluctuating water tables especially have a role in groundwater replenishment or water recharge. Sediments that are porous allow water to filter down through the soil and overlying rock into aquifers which are the source of 95% of the world’s drinking water. Wetlands can also act as recharge areas when the surrounding water table is low and as a discharge zone when it is too high. Karst (cave) systems are a unique example of this system and are a connection of underground rivers influenced by rain and other forms of precipitation. These wetland systems are capable of regulating changes in the water table on upwards of 130 meters (426.5 feet). Diunduh 15/2/2012

Bulk density increases, macropores decrease, infiltration decreases, aeration decreases. Compaction is most a problem when soils are wet. A similar problem is caused by shearing forces or puddling of soil surfaces. Pemadatan tanah adalah proses naiknya kerapatan tanah dengan memperkecil jarak antar partikel sehingga terjadi reduksi volume udara : tidak terjadi perubahan volume air yang cukup berarti pada tanah tersebut. Tingkat pemadatan diukur dari berat volume kering yang dipadatkan. Bila air ditambahkan pada suatu tanah yang sedang dipadatkan, air tersebut akan berfungsi sebagai unsur pembasah atau pelumas pada partikel – partikel tanah. Karena adanya air, partikel – partikel tersebut akan lebih mudah bergerak dan bergeseran satu sama lain dan membentuk kedudukan yang lebih rapat/padat.
