Title: Dumbarton Oaks Gardens: Cutting Garden
Other title: Dumbarton Oaks Gardens (Washington, D.C.)
Creator: Farrand, Beatrix, 1872-1959
Creator role: Landscape Architect
Date: 1927
Current location: Washington, District of Columbia, United States
Description of work: The Dumbarton Oaks Gardens were designed by the noted landscape gardener Beatrix Farrand, in cooperation with her clients Mr. and Mrs. Robert Woods Bliss, who purchased the property in 1920. The formal gardens occupy 10 acres. The major work was completed between 1921 and 1941, although changes, notably the addition of the Pebble Garden and redesign of the Ellipse, continued to be made by Mrs. Bliss, working with Ruth Havey. Endowments were established expressly for the purpose of maintaining the gardens and for supporting a program of research in landscape architecture.
Description of view: Looking across cutting garden to the garden wall and an enclosure. Gardeners working in the garden.

I don't know what this structure is called. It's like a giant piece of metal shaped into that beautiful work of art.
If there's someone out there who knows what it is called, a Singaporean perhaps, let me know. c",?
Mad props to shop-keepers who clean their windows!

In the background, the São Julião da Barra Fort (second half of the 16th century), seen from the east. It is an imposing structure, somewhat sinister-looking from the outside - especially knowing that it was used for centuries as a political prison. During the Salazar years, as political prisoners were taken elsewhere, the Fort became a VIP Guest house - Eisenhower stayed there in 1951. More recently it served as official residence of the Defence Minister.

Macro soil structure in a soil profile of a representative Inceptisol (borderline Oxisol) from the Cerado physiographic region--a vast tropical savanna ecoregion of Brazil, particularly in the states of Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul, Mato Grosso, Tocantins, Minas Gerais and the Federal District of Brazil.
Soil Structure refers to the arrangement of soil separates into units called soil aggregates. An aggregate possesses solids and pore space. Aggregates are separated by planes of weakness and are dominated by clay particles. Silt and fine sand particles may also be part of an aggregate. The aggregate acts like a larger silt or sand particle depending upon its size.
The arrangement of soil aggregates into different forms gives a soil its structure. The natural processes that aid in forming aggregates are:
1) wetting and drying,
2) freezing and thawing,
3) microbial activity that aids in the decay of organic matter,
4) activity of roots and soil animals, and
5) adsorbed cations.
The wetting/drying and freezing/thawing action as well as root or animal activity push particles back and forth to form aggregates. Decaying plant residues and microbial byproducts coat soil particles and bind particles into aggregates. Adsorbed cations help form aggregates whenever a cation is bonded to two or more particles.
Aggregates are described by their shape, size and stability. Aggregate types are used most frequently when discussing structure
Soil structure has a major influence on water and air movement, biological activity, root growth and seedling emergence. There are several different types of soil structure. It is inherently a dynamic and complex system that is affected by different factors.
Inceptisols are a soil order in USDA soil taxonomy. They form quickly through alteration of parent material. They are more developed than Entisols. They have no accumulation of clays, iron oxide, aluminium oxide or organic matter. They have an ochric or umbric horizon and a cambic subsurface horizon. The central concept of Inceptisols is that of soils that are of cool to very warm, humid and subhumid regions and that have a cambic horizon and an ochric epipedon. The order of Inceptisols includes a wide variety of soils. In some areas Inceptisols are soils with minimal development, while in other areas they are soils with diagnostic horizons that merely fail the criteria of the other soil orders. Inceptisols have many kinds of diagnostic horizons and epipedons.
Oxisols are a soil order in USDA soil taxonomy. Oxisols are weathered soils that are low in fertility. They are most common on the gentle slopes of geologically old surfaces in tropical and subtropical regions. Their profiles are distinctive because of a lack of obvious horizons. Their surface horizons are normally somewhat darker than the subsoil, but the transition of subsoil features is gradual. Some oxisols have been previously classified as laterite soils.
In the Brazil soil classification system, these Latossolos are highly weathered soils composed mostly of clay and weathering resistant sand particles. Clay silicates of low activity (kaolinite clays) or iron and aluminum oxide rich (haematite, goethite, gibbsite) are common. There are little noticeable horizonation differences. These are naturally very infertile soils, but, because of the ideal topography and physical conditions, some are being used for agricultural production. These soils do require fertilizers because of the ease of leaching of nutrients through the highly weathered soils.
