Abstract:
An airborne multispectral video system was used to collect soil spectral data over a four-square mile region in northeastern Arizona. Six multispectral video images were digitized. Using the red and blue bands of each image, an unsupervised classification was performed. Each was referenced to a digitized U.S. Soil Conservation Service map resulting in classification precisions ranging from 0-92.4 percent. Ground radiometric measurements were made to ascertain spectral separability of the soil samples. Soil color was determined to try to relate Munsell value to classification precision. Misclas

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been used for decades as flame retardants in polymeric materials. Products containing lower brominated congeners have been banned because of concerns about their toxicity to neurological, reproductive and endocrinal systems. Restrictions on the use of the deca-BDE mixture, which contains 97% of the fully brominated congener BDE-209, have been initially delayed. Nowadays the addition of BDE-209 to the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants is under evaluation. BDE-209 fate in soil, as for other hydrophobic organic compounds, is strongly

Abstract:
The effect of six cropping systems on soil carbon, aggregation and microbial community was examined after three growing seasons. The six cropping systems involved corn, sorghum, soybean, red clover, timothy and bare fallow, and differed in terms of tillage practice, type of crop (perennial versus annual) and type, amount and quality of carbon inputs to soil. Soil structure under sorghum and timothy differed from that of bare soil. Soil total carbon content exceeded that of fallow only under the two perennial cropping syste

Abstract:
Improved soil water conservation has become an important subject in semi-arid areas due to low and erratic rainfall which is often combined with higher temperatures to provide unsuitable conditions for successful crop productivity. Dryland agriculture remains vulnerable to yield losses in these areas. This calls for implementation of conservation agricultural practices that would improve dryland maize productivity. An on-station field trial was started in 2007 at Zeekoegat experimental farm (24 kilometers north of Pretoria), to establish the effect of different conservation agriculture practic

Soil compaction has been described as the most serious environmental problem caused by conventional agriculture, as it results in several stresses which may interact simultaneously, including increased soil strength, decreased aeration and reduced hydraulic conductivity. Root system architecture (RSA) is the arrangement of roots within the soil matrix and is important because the specific deployment of roots within the soil can determine soil exploration and resource uptake. As roots deliver water and nutrients to growing plants, whilst also providing anchorage, their importance cannot be over

This irrigation system uses a selective polymer membrane that allows water to cross by the process of pervaporation, which releases water into the soil in vapour phase. The polymer membrane is formed into a tube, buried in the soil and filled with saline water. The selectivity of the membrane retains salt within the tube whilst water is released, so the system treats the water and distributes it for irrigation simultaneously.

The soil sampling system using the PLC makes the automatic possible. The purpose of setting the diminish vibration mechanism is to reduce the vibration on the NIR system to ensure the accuracy

碩士<br>崑山科技大學<br>環境工程研究所<br>95<br>With the rapid industrial development recently and large amounts of usage in organic chemicals, the great nature balance has been badly damaged. This situation also causes extremely huge menace and damage to mankind. Furthermore, soil pollution cannot be found easily and it also results in higher difficulty for remediation. Many researches have testified that soils polluted with hydrophobic organic compound (HOCs) can be effectively remedied for soil by using surfactants to increase the solubilization of HOC. For soil remediation, it has proven to be an effecti

碩士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>營建工程技術學系<br>86<br>Since soil has unlimited-extension character. The analysis of dynamic soil-structure interaction becomes very complicated if the finite element method is used for simulation of the soil. To simplify the analytical model, the beam elements are utilized to simulate the soil. As the soil modal is subjected to the earthquakes, the shear modului and damping ratio of soil layers will vary with strain and time. The characteristics of these properties are investigated and applied to the beam elements for simulation of the soil. Site data are then used to pr

Abstract:
Global climate change in either the form of global warming or global cooling is occurring relatively rapidly today. Studies have shown that increased levels of greenhouse gases, especially atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO₂) are the dominate component contributing to the change. A reduction in CO₂ may be influenced by making larger efforts to sequester carbon in soil and therefore to not only keep soil organic carbon (SOC) levels steady but by possibly increasing them through human assistance. Soil sequestration of carbon has been estimated to have one of the largest potentials to sequester ca
