Abstract:
Increasing public interest and more anti-pollution legislation sharpen the need to avoid pollution. Soil, water and air are at risk.Apart from plant nutrient considerations, secondary effects of water-logging and oxygen depletion of the soil can occur. Slurry tankers can cause damage to the field surface by rutting. Some tankers exert pressures of 70 psi on the soil and then are often used on wet soils. Such malpractices create extra costs to rectify extra problems created.

Abstract:
Soil maps are being applied in modelling of environmental risk at a regional scale. Analysis of soil maps shows that there can be considerable uncertainty in map unit composition with consequent spatial variability in soil properties within map units. Uncertainty of map unit composition arises from a number of factors including map labels that do not reflect the mix of soil types present and imprecise location of map unit boundaries. Usually little, if any, information is supplied as to the extent and magnitude of these uncertainties. In this paper we develop datasets to quantify soil property

Abstract:
Diagnostic horizons, properties and materials are commonly applied building units of national and international soil classification systems. The presence, depth or absence of diagnostic information supports the process of objective soil classification, such as the World Reference Base (WRB). While the diagnostic units and associated descriptive qualifiers convey information that reflect pedogenesis, they also indicate important, and often complex properties that are related to soil fertility and other soil functions. The spatial extent or the continuum of diagnostic information is often differ

Three soil units were selected coupled with field reconnaissance survey. Soil pedons were characterized at Kiziwa (KZW-P1), Mkambarani (MKA-P1) and Fulwe (FUL-P1). Pedons were observed to be formed from in-situ weathering of granitic rocks under ustic moisture and iso-hyperthermic temperature regimes. Thirteen soil samples were described and analyzed for physica-chemical and mineralogical properties. KZW-P1 and FUL-P1 had red dark brown sandy clay and gravely clay

Additionally, soil samples were collected from genetic strata and soil profile pits were dug in each of these geologic units. Following stand

In the next step this map was converted into the SOTER system, which links the soil cover to the geomorphology. The modification of the original SOTER procedure consisted in the abandoning of the consequent hierarchy geomorphology – lithology – soil associations. O

Abstract:
Soil information is the basis for the site-specific management of soils. The study aimed to digitize soil information and classify it into soil mapping units (SMUs) using geostatistics. The study area was grouped into 12 SMUs, or management zones. The pH of the soils ranged from 7.3 in SMU2 to 8.6 in SMU5. Most SMUs exhibited low total nitrogen (TN) that could be attributed to very low soil organic carbon (SOC) in the soils. Available phosphorus (AvP) was very low in all the mapping units. The exchangeable K varied between 0.12 cmol(+) kg−1 (SMU7) and 0.95 cmol(+) kg−1 (SMU10). SMU12 was ident

Relationships between soil properties, soybean yields, and erosion classes were not observed until the soils became severely eroded.

The cathodic protection system for 16 ea. tanks project is successfully commissioned in early 2024. In this paper we will discuss the systematic commissioning process and result

Abstract:
Abstract This paper describes the company’s "best practice" for buried pipeline integrity management. All pipelines are however unique in terms of operational and environmental characteristics and the appropriate level of surveillance may vary from one pipeline system to another. Generally, the cathodic protection systems are based on automatically controlled rectifier systems with a wide range of current drainage and a comprehensive monitoring of potentials and current. The use of online monitoring of selected test posts and all rectifier units are considered essential for remote areas and in

Abstract In 2003, a major integrated oil &amp; gas company initiated a study to define the cost of corrosion throughout the core operations with the objective of focusing plant, engineering, and research investment in corrosion control to the areas that had the largest economic impact on corporate performance. This paper reviews available literature on cost of corrosion, reports the methodology adopted for the study, and highlights the most important problems discovered in gas sweetening and fractionation plants. For gas sweetening plants, it was found that 25% of the maintenance budget was co

Abstract:
Abstract With the rapid construction of high voltage alternating current (AC) transmission lines, AC interference problem is becoming a new threat to the pipeline safety, especially for pipelines coated with high quality coating, such as 3PE+. Solid State DC Decoupler and Zinc ribbon groundbed AC mitigation system is the most commonly used mitigation method. But the locations of the mitigation system and the size of the zinc ribbon grounding system still remains a problem for most engineers. In this paper, numerical modeling software is used to fit the real field AC interference data to verify

Abstract:
The objective of this collaborative research project was to determine the factors that may cause enhanced pesticide transport under effluent irrigation. For s-triazines, the potential for enhanced transport through association with effluent dissolved organic matter (OM) was shown to be small in batch and column studies and in numerical simulations. High alkalinity and pH of treated effluents increased soil-solution pH for selected soil-effluent combinations, promoting the dissolution of soil OM and mobilizing otherwise OM-retained pesticides. Evapotranspiration in column studies resulted in in

Abstract:
Rationale. Earth scent is the odour emitted from soils. This scent, primarily comprising the alcohols geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB), has not been fully characterised, but offers high potential for use as an environmental interrogation tool. Methodology. We utilised our field- based, solid-phase microextraction fibre method to test the hypothesis that soil activity and soil property variation can be detected in situ by comparing biogenic volatile emissions. Results. We eliminated sources of error utilising field-based sampling with these fibres, concluding that room temperature storage f

Abstract:
The mangrove forest ecosystem is a critical coastal resource in South Florida’s Biscayne National Park (BISC); Salt River Bay National Historical Site and Ecological Preserve (SARI) in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands; and the Virgin Islands National Park (VIIS) in St John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Mangrove wetlands provide flood control, storm protection, shore stabilization, water filtration (capturing soil runoff), carbon sequestration, and habitat for fish and wildlife communities. The economic value of the services derived from mangroves has been estimated as high as $200,000–$900,000 ha-1 (Uni

Relevant geospatial data layers are required for developing next generation ecological response models for specific reaches of 5 rivers in Central Texas: Colorado, Concho, San Saba, Llano, and Pedernales Rivers. Therefore, a collaborative effort between Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Texas State University, and Texas A&amp;M University was undertaken to acquire and curate a collection of biological and physical datasets to be utilized as inputs for next generation ecological response models at various spatial scales (watershed, river buffer, and point).

Abstract:
The overall goal of this project was to elucidate the role of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil retention, bioavailability and plant uptake of silver and cerium oxide NPs. The environmental risks of manufactured nanoparticles (NPs) are attracting increasing attention from both industrial and scientific communities. These NPs have shown to be taken-up, translocated and bio- accumulated in plant edible parts. However, very little is known about the behavior of NPs in soil-plant system as affected by dissolved organic matter (DOM). Thus DOM effect on NPs behavior is critical to assessing the

This study was conducted to inventory, classify, and map soils and vegetation within the ecosystems of Katmai National Park and Preserve (KATM) using an ecological land survey (ELS) approach. The ecosystem classes identified in the ELS effort were mapped across the park, using an archive of Geo-graphic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) datasets pertaining to land cover, topography, surficial geology, and glacial history. The description and mapping of the landform-vegetation-soil relationships identified in the ELS work provides tools to support the design and implementation of
