Summary: Monitoring temporal changes (changes over time) and spatial changes (changes from one location to another) in golf course soils can provide powerful information for golf course superintendents that can:
- Prevent the accumulation of detrimental factors (such as soil salts)
- Prevent deficits of essentail nutrients
- Identify soil moisture and/or irrigation distribution problems
- Pinpoint locations of stressed turf
- Allow site-specific diagnosis and alteration of management practices before turf damage results
