ItemSome factors affecting the availability of nutrients to plants( 1980)This thesis describes work done between 1954 and 1979 as an officer of CSIRO - initially at Armidale, New South Wales, then for one year on a CSIRO Studentship at Rothamsted Experimental Station, United Kingdom, and finally in Perth, Western Australia. Included in the thesis are papers which arose from these for a masters degree and from a Ph.D. These are identified and are included in a background section because they indicate some of the influences that gave rise to subsequent work. They are not submitted as evidence for a D.Agr. Sc. degree. The thesis begins with a section in which the general trends of the work are outlined. This is followed by a list of publications. In order to summarise the work, the papers have been allocated into ten groups. The groups then follow. A table of contents precedes each group. For those papers for which I was the single author, I was solely responsible for planning the research and writing the paper. Where joint authorship is involved, the rule I have followed is that the senior author had major responsibility for the work and for the paper. This statement is amplified with respect to some of the individual papers in the summary section. All the papers have been published or have been accepted for publication.
