Acid sulfate soil technical manual

The following two Technical Manuals provided a basis and framework: Dear SE, Moore NG, Dobos SK, Watling KM, and Ahern CR () Soil Management Guidelines: In Queensland Acid Sulfate Soil Technical Manual: (version ) Department of Natural Resources and Mines, Indooroopilly, Queensland, Australia. Available from: QASSIT. The Tasmanian Acid Sulfate Soil Management Guidelines are a principal output of the TASSI project and draw heavily from and build upon the Queensland Acid Sulfate Soil Technical Manual, Soil Management Guidelines and the Guidelines for Sampling and Analysis of Lowland Acid Sulfate Soils (ASS) in Queensland. Soils are considered potential acid sulfate soils if the sulfide material is waterlogged mineral, organic, or mixed soil material with a pH of or higher and, if incubated as a 1-cm thick layer under moist, aerobic conditions (field capacity) at room temperature, shows a drop in pH of or more units to a pH value of or less within 16 weeks or longer, if the pH is still dropping after 16 weeks, until the pH reaches a .

The formation of acid sulfate soils (ASS) materials occurs under waterlogged conditions in the presence of no or minimal oxygen. Under these anaerobic conditions, sulfate-reducing bacteria in the soil materials convert dissolved sulfate present in the pore water into Reduced Inorganic Sulfur (RIS). The Acid Sulfate Soils Manual (ASS Manual) forms part of an ‘all of government’ approach to the management of acid sulfate soils in New South Wales. The ASS Manual has been published by: Acid Sulfate Soils Management Advisory Committee.
