Abstract:
An understanding of the enrichment mechanisms of cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) in the process of rock weathering and soil formation is essential to develop agriculture according to local conditions. However, the enrichments of soil Cd and As under natural background conditions in karst areas are still uncertain. The enrichment factor, geo-accumulation index, redundancy analysis, and other methods were used to analyze the enrichment degree and the influencing factors of Cd and As on 5 rock–soil profiles and 15 topsoil samples, which were collected from a karst forest area in Libo County, Guizho

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Soil is a highly heterogeneous matrix, which can contain thousands of different bacterial species per gram. Only a small component of this diversity (maybe <1%) is commonly captured using standard isolation techniques, although indications are that a larger proportion of the soil community is in fact culturable. Better isolation techniques yielding greater bacterial diversity would be of benefit for understanding the metabolic activity and capability of many soil microorganisms. We studied the response of soil bacterial communities to carbon source enrichment in small matrices by m

The aim of this work is to research the relationship of soil carbonate enrichment with the spectral characteristics of the surface obtained from the data of the “Resurs-P” ultra-high resolution satel

It is important to control Cadmium (Cd) content in rice and ensure the grain security. The transfer characteristics of Cd in paddy soil-rice system between different soil types (red soil and purple soil) under field condition were researched to provide a theoretical basis for Cd environmental management in paddy. In this study, many rice plant samples and corresponding paddy soil samples were collected from fields around the industrial and mining area in central Hunan province in 2011 and 2012. The Cd concentration of samples was analyzed, and the degree of Cd contamination was evaluated. More

 An attempt was made to investigate the concentrations of Cu, Fe and Zn in agricultural soils around the Meftah cement plant, Algeria. Forty soil samples were collected at two soil depths, 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm. The soil samples were digested with the EPA method and the concentrations of heavy metals were determined by atomic absorption spectrometry. The concentrations ranged from 7.22 to 55.75 mg kg-1 for Cu, 16160.8 to 19742.2 mg kg-1for Fe and 44.46 to 200.26 mg kg-1for Zn.

ABSTRACT The response of bacteria in bulk soil and earthworm casts to carbon enrichment was studied by an RNA stable-isotope probing/terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism strategy with 13C-labeled glucose and acetate. Both the soil microsite status and the carbon enrichment selected rapidly for different active bacterial communities, which resulted in different degradation kinetics. Our study clearly illustrates the biases that are generated by adding C substrates to detect metabolically active bacteria in soil.

Soil salinization is the major problem affecting the productivity of irrigated lands. In Uzbekistan, irrigated area amounts to 4.5 million hectares or about 10% of Uzbekistan’s total area and almost 46.6% of these lands are affected by increasing salinity. The main reason for these conditions of irrigated land is the effect caused by natural factors (primary salinity) - inefficient natural drainage, saline groundwater, high evapotranspiration rates, and high capillary capacity of the soil. Moreover, human-induced processes (so-called “secondary salinity”), which lead to the enrichment of miner

Lead (plumbum, Pb) is a toxic element of the first hazard class. Global soil pollution with Pb leads to severe consequences for the environment and human health. Mobile Pb forms represent a special environmental danger. To immobilize Pb in soils, various materials (meliorants) are used which can convert it into some form poorly soluble in water and weak acids. The search for safe natural materials for the rehabilitation of contaminated soils is of great practical importance. Glauconite-containing phosphorite tailings (PT) are promising reclamation materials. The main component of PT, glauconit
