This webpage explains what tunnel erosion is, how it is caused and how it can be prevented or controlled by mechanical, chemical and vegetative measures. It includes links to guidelines and a technical manual about managing dispersive soils. While it is written for Tasmanian soils, the information would be relevant for any regions with dispersive subsoils.#
This is a carefully curated database of important soil resources. The data base is not exhaustive but rather a library of the resources we believe are the most useful for the audience. Each resource has been added after careful consideration against our selection criteria, including but not limited to its scientific validity, accessibility, and readability. The library generally does not include most academic research papers but may include some open-source papers written in accessible English.

SSA reminds users that these resources are a guide only. Our understanding of soil science is improving continuously so it is important to check the suitability of the information for your purpose with an appropriately qualified professional such as a Registered Soil Professional or a Certified Professional Soil ScientistÂ
