Renamed[edit]

I renamed from "bulk mass density" to its normal name "bulk density"; just take a peek at what links here, so far mostly just linking that phrase from articles in which it already existed, and not removing "mass" from even a single one of them because there weren't any.

I believe it is bad style for the opening bolded title to have a link in it, but I'm not sure where the link to density should be. 160.94.27.141 14:06, 9 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

External link to forum[edit]

External links to a forum are preferably avoided according to WP:EL, so I removed it from the article, but might still be interesting for editors of this article: http://www.bulk-online.com/Forum/showthread.php?threadid=6440 --Berland (talk) 09:20, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

changed back to oven dry soil[edit]

I undid Nov 4, 2010 changes by 138.253.233.125 that deleted "oven dry" and added "mass of water" to the bulk density equation. Everywhere I've seen bulk density calculated, dry soil is used. Included the Book "Nature and properties of Soil" that is referenced in this page. Carlton58 (talk) 19:09, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
