Title in Portuguese
Similaridades entre solos coesos e hardsetting: caracterização do comportamento físico.
Keywords in Portuguese
física do solo
gênese do solo
morfologia do solo
resistência dos solos
tipologia do solo
Abstract in Portuguese
Horizontes coesos de solos da região nordeste do Brasil, faixa de domínio dos Tabuleiros Costeiros, são uma séria limitação para a produtividade das culturas devido ao incremento acentuado da resistência do solo à penetração, sob condições de secamento do solo. Solos similares foram reconhecidos na Austrália e identificados como hardsetting. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi demonstrar que o caráter coeso de um Latossolo Amarelo localizado na Bahia é equivalente ao atributo hardsetting utilizado na descrição do solos australianos. A tese foi dividida em três capítulos. O primeiro capítulo apresenta uma revisão de literatura sobre os conceitos que norteiam os designativos coeso e hardsetting. O segundo capítulo descreve uma pesquisa de campo que demonstra que solos com caráter coeso e hardsetting apresentam o mesmo comportamento, no que diz respeito às feições morfológicas e resistência à penetração. O terceiro capítulo apresenta um estudo de laboratório que demonstrou, por meio da análise de parâmetros físicos e micromorfológicos, que o adensamento natural das partículas foi o principal fator que contribuiu com a ocorrência do caráter coeso do solo.

soil resistance to penetration
Abstract in English
"Cohesive" soil horizons from the northeastern region of Brazil, domain of Low Coastal Tablelands, represents a serious limitation for crop production due to the huge increase in soil resistance to penetration as the soil dries. Similar soils have been reported in Australia and identified as hardsetting. The objective of this research was to demonstrate that a Yellow Cohesive Latosol located in Bahia is equivalent to the hardsetting attribute used in the description of Australian soils. The thesis was divide in three chapters. The first chapter presents a literature review on the "cohesive" and hardsetting concepts. The second chapter describes a field research showing that a "cohesive" and a hardsetting soil have the same behavior regarding their morphological features and resistance to penetration. The third chapter presents a laboratory study where is demonstrated that the natural densification of soil particles has a major contribution on the "cohesive" behavior.
