Abstract/Contents:"Goals: Determine if a simple, inexpensive and quantitative procedure can be used to give a reliable estimate of sand shape without having to examine individual grains. Determine the effect of sand shape on the physical properties of rootzone sands and whether particle size distributions of USGA rootzone sands should be modified to account for differences in sand shape."
