| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a study conducted to "evaluate the soil chemical properties such as CEC [cation exchange capacity], mineralizable N [nitrogen], and pH as affected by treatments during the grow-in period and age of the putting green." Describes the materials and methods used in the experiment, explaining that "the 7-day short-term anaerobic incubation method was used to measure mineralizable N." |

| USGA Summary Points: | Generally, soil pH increases and soil CEC and mineralizable N decreases from the top to the bottom of the soil profile across years and treatments. The soil CEC and pH dynamics in different years after the establishment of putting greens are correlated to accumulation of organic matter. No significant difference was observed on mineralizable N among different putting green ages due probably to the balance of N immobilization and mineralization. Mineralizable N as an indicator of labile organic matter will be discussed later. Establishment treatments (accelerated and control) had little effect on CEC, pH, and mineralizable N. Significant age effect of putting greens was observed for lignin and cellulose content in the top layer. Lignin and cellulose increased in the upper rootzone as the age of putting greens increase. |
