摘要：

A field trial was conducted to examine the effect of initial soil water content and vegetative cover on soil disturbance caused by tracked military vehicles. Disturbance was measured as depth of rut produced. Soil disturbance increased as the number of passes and turns increased, but especially after turning manoeuvres. Greater disturbance occurred on reduced vegetation plots and with increasing initial soil water content. Simple regression analysis was undertaken to determine which factor had the greatest influence on disturbance.
