<p> During the spring and summer months of 1967, measurements of the temperature and moisture regimes under a control, and lamp black, white talc, and straw mulch surface treatments, on a fine sandy loam, and a sandy clay loam, were undertaken. The sites were the McMaster University campus, and the Arboretum of the Royal Botanical Gardens in Hamilton, Ontario.</p> <p> A description of the experimental procedures is presented in Chapter II. Chapter III discusses the regimes of soil temperature and moisture - content; and also the effects of clear and cloudy skies, and rain on soil temperatures.</p> / Thesis / Master of Arts (MA)
