LAND-USE SYSTEMS AFFECT THE VARIABILITY OF PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES OF AMAZONIAN FERRALSOL
Resumo
Studies evaluating soil quality in land-use systems often consider the changes on the levels of soil attributes and overlook eventual alterations in the variability itself. Neglecting heteroscedasticity may lead to mistaken conclusions when different areas are compared by parametric methods. In this study, we aimed to compare the variability of soil physical attributes between land-use systems, through statistical tests with different levels of robustness. The study was carried out at the Campus Ariquemes of the Federal Institute of Rondônia (9°57'11.72"S, 62°56'54.55"W), in an Haplic Ferralsol under three land-use systems, namely: native forest, agroforestry (T. grandifolium and H. brasiliensis), and cultivated pasture. In each system, we collected 35 soil samples distributed in 2500 m2 at depths: (I) 0.0-0.05 m, (II) 0.05-0.1 m, and (III) 0.1-0.2 m. The variances of clay content, bulk density and total porosity in the samples were compared, between the three systems, within each soil layer, by Bartlett's test, Levenne's test and Snedecor's F test (P
