Aim of study (acc. to author)

To study the effects of magnetic field on aggregate stability of the soil in Isparta- Kuleönü, Turkey.

Background/further details

The research area was intersected by the energy transmission line of 154 kV (50 Hz), on a clay loam soil. Soil samples were taken from 0-15 cm layers at gradually increased distances in relation to transmission line.
