Bulk density (BD) reflects the soil?s ability to function for structural support, water and solute movement, and soil aeration and also allows concentration data of elements to be presented on a mass and/or volume basis. It is used to express soil physical, chemical and biological measurements on a volumetric basis for assessment of soil ecosystem services and thus comparisons between management systems.
