Soil or atmosphere contribution to metal transfer and accumu- lation in crops depends on the type of metals and crop species and it is still strongly controversial ( Bi et al., 2009

LAND-USE CHANGE EFFECTS ON SOIL ORGANIC CARBON, TOTAL SOIL NITROGEN, AND SOIL EROSION IN A TEMPERATE FOREST AND

Impacts of land use and plant characteristics on dried soil layers in different climatic regions on the Loess Plateau of China. Effects of deep soil desiccation on

This project examines the driving forces behind the land-use change and evaluates the effects of land-use transition on soil organic carbon density and

Soil Carbon sequestration impacts on global climate change and food security.. Management and land use change effects on soil carbon in northern 1

The results showed that organic matter content, hydraulic conductivity, field capacity moisture content, mean weight diameter, and geo- metric mean diameter of the soil aggregates

The impact of different land use types on soil quality was evaluated by analysing 6 different soil properties: bulk density, organic matter, water content,

I hypothesized that (1) Corg concentrations, soil moisture as well as soil pH, soil C : N ratios, and P fractions control Pmic concentrations in soil with plant diversity

Surface soil samples were collected from four adjacent agricultural land use types (namely; Grass fallow, Tree fallow, Homestead and Continuous field cropping) within each of

H01. There is no significant difference between the level of job satisfaction among college teachers in relation to their personal variables. There is no significant

In order to verify that soil quality really acted as a land use change in the study area int he period 1981- 1990, land use transformations that do not depend on soil properties

Soil samples were collected from salt-affected soils (Solonetz) under different land uses, namely arable (SnA) and pasture (SnP), to investigate the effects of land use on

Figure 2: Relationships between the soil litter (SL) content and soil carbohydrate (SC) content, (a) rhamnose (■), (b) ribose (▲), (c) fucose ( ♦ ) in 7 major forest types

Rampant land use activities have led to land degradation and soil erosion, resulting in implications on water quality and sedimentation of the river networks1. This affects

integration of information on soil, land use/ land cover, ground water potential and slope, the following action plan have been formulated in development of land, soil

The water quality file (WQI) in the examination region is computed to decide the appropriateness of groundwater for drinking reason. Diverse appraisals of water quality

The purpose of this research was to discover the soil quality index of peat land based on peat land use in secondary forest, shrubland, corn field and oil palm
