Abstract:

The role of earthworms in improving soil fertility and structure is widely recognised. As a result earthworms (often single species populations) have been deliberately introduced into pasture and arable land by man in attempts to improve plant production and into degraded land in order to bring about soil amelioration. The potentioal of earthworms employed in land restoration programmes may be enhanced by inoculating sites with a combination of species from different ecological groupings which have different roles in soil processes. In order to acheive the type of success envisaged by such pro

Abstract:

Seven billion people are urinating every day, excreting 28 million tonnes of nitrogen (N) a year (Vinneräs, 2002). This mass of N excreted is equal to 26% of the annual global N fertilizer demand, a value of $21.3 trillion USD (based on $350 USD per metric tonne of urea) (Alibaba, 2012, FAO, 2011). The use of human excreta as N fertilizer would allow the recovery of nutrients, resulting in savings for farmers, and counter the threat to people's health by reducing contact with untreated human waste. This practice, termed ecological sanitation (EcoSan), has a long history of application in tradi

Abstract:

Estimates of soil hydraulic parameters are essential for predicting and describing water movement in unsaturated soils. Inverse approaches to estimating soil hydraulic parameters have gained great favor. However, limited effort has been placed on obtaining estimates using observed experimental data. Moreover, little has been advanced in applying these approaches to larger scale, multidimensional systems. In this research, several transient laboratory experiments were conducted using both repacked and intact soil cores, and larger scale 1 and 3-dimensional repacked soil columns. Measurements of

Chapter 1 of this study explores research that has shown that the use of technology in the classroom can be beneficial to student learning. Additionally, a need for Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) instruction in university level core environmental science classrooms has been demonstrated. This study includes an investigation of the potential benefits of using a combination of pedagogies: web-based teaching tools and ESA instruction in a laboratory classroom. The research design included two class formats, one that employed web-based tools (PowerPoint and video) and ESA instruction, and one

Abstract:

Agricultural system models integrate many different processes that cannot all be measured in field experiments and help quantify soil water dynamics, crop evapotranspiration, and crop growth with high temporal resolution. Understanding soil water dynamics and crop evapotranspiration is essential to improve agricultural management of field crops. For example, the interaction between nitrogen application rate and water dynamics is not sufficiently understood. In most cases, model simulations deviate from field measurements, especially when model input parameters are indirectly and unspecifically

Abstract:

To combat the rapid degradation of the Louisiana coast, the Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority has planned strategic land building initiatives throughout the Louisiana Gulf coast, including beach nourishment and marsh creation projects. It is commonly agreed that the state lacks sufficient renewable sediment resources to maintain the planned CPRA land building program. However, Louisiana, the state that commonly ranks last in state recycling percentage, recycles an estimated 0.6% of the waste glass consumed in the state. Glass is predominantly silica sand.

Full text

Abstract:

Spatial-temporal distribution of soil moisture in the vadose zone is an important aspect of the hydrological cycle that plays a fundamental role in water resources management, including modeling of water flow and mass transport. The vadose zone is a critical transfer and storage compartment, which controls the partitioning of energy and mass linked to surface runoff, evapotranspiration and infiltration. This dissertation focuses on integrating hydraulic characterization methods with remote sensing technologies to estimate the soil moisture distribution by modeling the spatial coverage of soil

Thesis (Ph.D. (Agriculture)) -- University of Limpopo, 2018<br>Surface coal mining requires good and sound rehabilitation practices to re-establish productive land capability and land use after mine-closure. The vast majority of Mpumalanga’s coal deposits are located below high quality and productive arable land. Impacts on soil and land, associated with surface coal mining can reduce the possibility to re-establish the pre-mining land capability and productive potential.

Abstract:

Scarcity of water for irrigation is a serious hindrance for small-scale farmers in sub-Saharan Africa. The use of good quality water for irrigation has resulted in increasing pressure on such water which has prompted sourcing of wastewater as an alternative. One possibility, being investigated by eThekwini Water and Sanitation (Durban, South Africa), is to install anaerobic baffled reactors within local communities to treat wastewater to allow its use for agriculture. The success of wastewater irrigation depends on the ability of the soil to assimilate the water, nutrients and any other contam
