Abstract:
SUMMARYThe grass Leptocloa fusca is very useful on salt-affected soils as it can tolerate extremely saline and alkaline conditions, Since its growth is not affected by gypsum application, planting with Leptochloa is a good biological method for the reclamation of alkaline soils. It is also well adapted to the waterlogging encountered on saline and alkaline soils, and improves the soil's physical, chemical and biological properties so that within two or three years many commercial and forage crops can be grown. Leptochloa excretes salts through specialized glands and is therefore reasonably pal

Soil organic matter (SOM) models simplify the complex turnover dynamics of organic matter in soils. Stabilization mechanisms are currently thought to play a dominant role in SOM turnover but they are not explicitly accounted for in most SOM models. One study addresses the implementation of an approach to account for the stabilization mechanism of physical protection in the SOC model RothC using 13C abundance measurements in conjunction with soil size fractionation data.

Abstract:
Egypts population was projected to increase from 20 million in the 1960s to 67 million by 2000. With this increase in the population, an increase in food production of 200% to 300% is become necessary to meet food demands. In addition to the increasing demand for food, the population increase will result in increased amounts of human wastes. This will, in tum, need to be disposed of in ways other than the traditional dumping in the nearest stream or the Nile River. It is therefore vitally important to utilize as much as possible of this human waste (biosolids) as an organic fertilizer and soil

Abstract:
Abstract The use of soil corrosion probes to determine actual corrosion rates can assist in determining the effectiveness of cathodic protection (CP) in high resistivity soils. This technique is useful in situations where poor reference cell soil contact in very dry soils results in erroneous CP potential measurements. This paper presents the results of an on-going study evaluating the use of soil corrosion probes as an alternative monitoring tool to determine the effectiveness of CP in the dry desert soils of Saudi Arabia.

Abstract Metallic coupons are generally used close to buried pipes under cathodic protection in order to evaluate potential and current demand at coating defects. The “ON/OFF” measurement technique (at interrupted current), is generally the preferred method. The “OFF” potential is supposed to give a realistic picture of the electrochemical potential of the coupon, excluding the effect of ohmic drops due to soil resistivity.This technique assumes that a metallic coupon is representative of a coating defect. However, considering the inhomogeneity of soils and their possible high resistivity, the

The potential of soils to assimilate CH4 depends on factors such as soil type and moisture regime. This study investigates the ability of clay soil Cambic Calcisol to assimilate CH4.

Integrated agricultural practices contribute to increasing and restoring the fertility of washed lands, reducing water erosion of soils on the slopes. When cultivating eroded soils, it is necessary to introduce organic and mineral fertilizers into the arable layer, enrich it with nutrients and eliminate the acid reaction. To do this, you need to carry out deep plowing up to 30 cm with the simultaneous introduction of organic matter and mineral fertilizers. If the soil is acidic, then liming is necessary. This will help to create a better soil environment and better absorption of fertilizers.

Prolonged application may result in P accumulation up to levelsBeneficial use of reclaimed wastewater (RW) and biosolids (BS) in soils is accompanied by large input of sewage-originated P. Prolonged application may result in P accumulation up to levels that impair plant nutrition, increase P loss, and promote eutrophication in downstream waters. This study aims to shed light on the RW- and BS-P forms in soils and to follow the processes that determine P reactivity, solu

Abstract:
The overall objectives of the project were: (a) To measure and study in situ the effect of irrigation with reclaimed sewage effluents on redox processes and related chemical dynamics in soil profiles of agricultural fields. (b) To study under controlled conditions the kinetics and equilibrium states of selected processes that affect redox conditions in field soils or that are effected by them. Specifically, these include the effects on heavy metals sorption and desorption, and the effect on pesticide degradation. On the basis of the initial results from the field study, increased effort was de
