Editorial: Water repellence of soils: new insights and emerging research needs (2007)
Doerr, S.H., Ritsema, C.J., Dekker, L.W., Scott, D.F., Carter, D.
An increasing awareness of the occurrence and implications of soil water repellence has caused a surge in research activity addressing this phenomenon in recent years. This has involved not only the...
Doerr, S.H., Shakesby, R.A., Dekker, L.W., Ritsema, C.J.
Knowledge of soil water repellency distribution, of factors affecting its occurrence and of its hydrological effects stems primarily from regions with a distinct dry season, whereas comparatively...
Doerr, S. H, Shakesby, R. A, Blake, W. H, Chafer, C. J, Humphreys, G. S, Wallbrink, P. J
Fire-induced or enhanced soil water repellency is often viewed as a key cause of the substantial increases in runoff and erosion following severe wildfires. In this study, the effects of different...
Blake, W. H, Wallbrink, P. J, Doerr, S. H, Shakesby, R. A, Humphreys, G. S
Intense rainfall following wildfire can cause substantial soil and sediment redistribution. With concern for the increasing magnitude and frequency of wildfire events, research needs to focus on...
Shakesby, R. A, Blake, W. H, Doerr, S. H, Humphreys, G. S, Wallbrink, P. J, Chafer, C. J
This book reviews the major achievements that have been made in soil erosion and sediment redistribution research and management. It presents work from key players in river basin soil erosion and...

This book reviews the major achievements recently made in soil erosion and sediment redistribution research and management and identifies future requirements.
Effects of clay amendment on adsorption and desorption of copper in water repellent soils (2005)
Xiong, X., Stagnitti, F., Allinson, G., Turoczy, N., Li, P., LeBlanc, M., ...
Copper is an important micronutrient and trace amounts are essential for crop growth. However, high concentrations of copper will produce toxic effects. Australia is increasingly developing...
Extraction of compounds associated with water repellency in sandy soils of different origin (2005)
Doerr, S.H., Llewellyn, C.T., Douglas, P., Morley, C.P., Mainwaring, K.A., Haskins, C., ...
After an initial evaluation of several solvents, the efficiency of Soxhlet extractions with isopropanol/ammonia (s.g. 0.88) (70 : 30 v : v; 24 h) in extracting compounds associated with water...

Water repellency of soils; the influence of ambient relative humidity (2002)
Doerr, S.H., Dekker, L.W., Ritsema, C.J., Shakesby, R.A., Bryant, R.
Adverse effects of soil water repellency (hydrophobicity) are of concern during or following rainfall or irrigation, and are often preceded by conditions of high atmospheric relative humidity (RH)....
Water repellency and critical soil water content in a dune sand (2001)
Dekker, L.W., Doerr, S.H., Oostindie, K., Ziogas, A.K., Ritsema, C.J.
Assessments of water repellency of soils are commonly made on air-dried or oven-dried samples, without considering the soil water content. The objectives of this study were to examine the spatial and...
