Interaction of spatial variability characterized by soil electrical conductivity and plant water status related to generative growth of fruit trees
… wurde eine Korrelation zwischen Ertrag und ECatopsoil von r = 0.52 ermittelt. Durch die Anwendung der Hot-spot Analyse konnten Extremwerte in den räumlichen Daten ermittelt werden. Diese Extrema dienten zur Einteilung der Zonen in cold-spot, random und hot-spot. Die random Zone weist die höchsten …

Spatial Variability of Saline and Sodic Soils in the Black Glaciated Region of the Northern Great Plains, USA
<p>Recent (1990-2014) increases in salt affected soils in the Northern Great Plains states of South Dakota (SD) and North Dakota (ND), MLRA 55B and 55C, have prompted more intensive research on groundwater derived saline and sodic soil characteristics in semi-humid and humid climates. Past research …

Forest fires and their effect on chemical and physical properties of soils in North-eastern-Libya. Assessment of the changes in soil chemical and physical properties of soils in North-eastern-Libya.
… fires are likely to adversely affect the soil properties as well as vegetation composition, and possibly lead to soil erosion and desertification. One of the most fire affected forest regions in the world is the Mediterranean. Libya, in the Mediterranean region, has soils that are …

Ground penetrating radar characterization of geologic structure beneath the Aberjona wetland
… "ground truth" data about the stratigraphy, soil chemistry, and composition of the first seven meters of peat, sand and silt they are time-consuming and labor intensive. The advantage of GPR is its ability to extend point-source ground truth information into two and three dimensions. This …

Soil microbial response to land management practices and wildfire in Appalachian ecosystems
… is critically controlled by the activity of soil microbial communities. Understanding how soil microbial communities change as a result of different land management practices or natural disturbances can provide insight into the effects of these perturbations on ecosystem health, such as water …

The effect of biochar on immobilization and phytoavailability of chromium, nickel and lead in soils amended with slag
… use of SPS as liming material on agricultural soils seems viable despite the detrimental effects due to heavy metals contained in SPS. The presence of heavy metals [chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni) and lead (Pb)] in higher concentrations in potential agricultural soils has negative effects to fauna …

Comparison of soil properties and Kentucky bluegrass shoots mineral composition prior to and after 10-11 years irrigation with recycled water
… of this research were to: 1) assess changes in soil chemical properties after 5 and 11 years of recycled water irrigation, 2) determine if there is any heavy metal accumulation in soil after 11 years of recycled water irrigation, 3) evaluate Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) (KBG) turf …

Effects of land-use practice on wetland soil hydrology, salinity, and biogeochemistry in the prairie pothole region
… SRW has higher potentials to sequester soil organic carbon (SOC) and can further impact greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and extracellular enzyme activities (EEAs). In a field experiment, the effects of SRW were evaluated by measuring the depth to GWT; groundwater and soil electrical …

Study of different soil management techniques to improve the cultivation of the vine and encourage its sustainability
… in vineyards, evaluating their impact on soil, vine development, and the quality of grapes and wine, with the goal of promoting more sustainable viticultural practices without compromising the quality of the final product. This study is based on a four-year agronomic trial in which three …

The effect of spent mushroom compost on soil conditions and plant growth
… have been reported that evaluate SMC as a soil amendment in New Zealand, and work in other countries has been of limited scope. Therefore the objectives of this study were to: evaluate the effect of SMC on soil chemical and physical properties, and on the yield of three vegetable species; …

Biomass Crops in Marginal Lands.
… lignocellulosic biomass crops grown on soil affected by salinity, which is considered a biophysical constraint leading to cultivation of bioenergy crops on marginal lands. The present experiment focused on lignocellulosic crops that grow naturally in the Mediterranean environment (Arundo …
