Abstract:
Waterlogged land characterized by low productivity impact the productivity of the adjacent land and increase soil erosion. Gangzhongwa, one type of waterlogged lands, is widely distributed in Jiusan cultivated lands in Heilongjiang province China. Observation of soil profiles and measurements of soil physical properties were carried to investigate the factors related to the waterlogged land formation. The results showed Gangzhongwa waterlogged land is formed due to three reasons: firstly, the water table of groundwater is shallow and the soil profile texture varies regularly from clay loam layer, and sandy loam layer to aquitard layer; secondly soil infiltration is significantly correlated with sand content and gravel content; and thirdly the subsurface runoff makes the soil profile saturated where the surface clay loam layer is thin but the sandy layer is thick with larger infiltration rates. This study presents some theoretical insights for the Gangzhongwa waterlogged land conservation plan.

Abstract. To examine the chemical composition and ethanol production of feedstocks grown on marginal lands, prairie cordgrass and switchgrass from waterlogged land, saline land, and saline water irrigated land were evaluated. Samples were pretreated using 1% w w-1 dilute acid at 160°C for 10 min, and simultaneous saccharification and cofermentation was conducted using industrial engineered . Samples grown on land irrigated with saline water had 2.8-fold higher total ash content compared to the other types of land, resulting in lower carbohydrate concentrations. Yeast fermented glucose and xylose simultaneously; almost all of the sugars were consumed, indicating that salts present in biomass ash did not inhibit yeast performance. Ethanol production from the waterlogged and saline lands was 2,500 to 4,700 L ha-1, which is comparable to that of samples grown on other agricultural lands. Prairie cordgrass and switchgrass grown on marginal lands could be potential feedstocks for cellulosic biofuel.

Abstract:
Seedlings of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, E. comitae-vallis, E. kondininensis, E. lesouefii, E. platycorys, E. spathulata and Casuarina obesa were grown in a glasshouse under non-saline drained, saline drained, non-saline waterlogged, and saline waterlogged conditions for 3 months. Measurements were taken of seedling height, seedling survival and the concentration of Na, K, Ca, Mg and Cl in plant tissues. Production of specialised roots containing aerenchyma in E. camaldulensis and C. obesa enabled these species to tolerate non-saline waterlogged conditions. Saline, but freely drained conditions reduced seedling growth for all species but only E. kondininensis recorded seedling deaths. C. obesa was the species most tolerant of saline waterlogged conditions with no seedling deaths and a lower reduction in growth compared to the Eucalyptus species. Exclusion of Na and Cl, together with the production of specialised roots by C. obesa are suggested as the probable factors relating to the high seedling tolerance in saline waterlogging. The species with highest tolerance to non-saline waterlogging were more tolerant of saline waterlogged conditions. The importance of this result for evaluating trees to be used in the rehabilitation of secondary salinised land in Australia is discussed.

Abstract:
Investigating the nutrient composition in soil textural constituent as influenced by land use is a necessity towards a good soil conservative and management measure. In view of this, a laboratory experiment was conducted; soil samples were collected from different locations within and outside the Federal University of Technology, Akure and analyzed for basic chemical elements. The soil sampling was based on land use and six different soil samples were collected at a depth of 0-15cm. These samples included bare soil (BS), waterlogged soil (WS), maize cultivated soil (MS), cassava cultivated soil (CS), cassava-maize intercrop (CM), and mixed cropping of cassava, maize and cowpea (MC). The waterlogged soil was cultivated to rice while the bare soil was not cultivated. The soil samples were air-dried and crushed after which fractionation was carried out using a three-layer sieve to separate the soil particles into different size of 2mm to 0.5mm (Sand), 0.5mm-0.05mm (Silt) and

Abstract:
The soil organic carbon (SOC) pool in farmland is changing rapidly due to human activities, thereby greatly affecting the regional and global environment, as well as influencing soil fertility and crop yields. The present study investigated the effects of underground coal mining on the regional SOC pool in farmland in the Jiuli Mining Area of Xuzhou City in China as a typical coal mining region based on field sampling, chemical analysis, model construction, and spatial analysis using the software of ArcGIS. The results showed that in the mining subsidence area, spatial variations in the SOC content and soil bulk density were mainly caused by structural factors (mining subsidence, subsidence waterlogging, and other structural factors due to coal mining) at a regional scale. SOC storage in farmland soil decreased sharply in non-waterlogged subsidence farmland and seasonally waterlogged subsidence farmland in the areas with mining, whereas the SOC storage increased in waterlogged wetland after coal mining. The SOC was reduced by 102,882 tonnes (32.81%) compared with the original SOC stock as a consequence of coal mining, and thus the effect of underground coal mining on the regional SOC pool in farmland was characterized as a carbon loss process. Land-use changes, soil degradation and erosion contributed almost equally to the carbon loss process in the study area. The results of this study may facilitate evaluations of low-carbon land reclamation and ecological compensation in mining areas.

Abstract:
The agricultural landscape of the Czech Republic is facing climate change, and drought is among the most severe stress factors. Thousands of small ponds and naturally wet areas have been drained and transformed into agricultural parcels. Their restoration could increase the landscape's resilience to climate change. Therefore, we describe the possibility of using hyperspectral aerial surveying for the identification of waterlogged areas in the agricultural landscape based on the example of one of the warmest and driest regions of the Czech Republic—the South Moravian region, an area where water retention in the landscape is highly relevant. Within our study, a total of 33 spectral indices related to the waterlogging of soil selected from previous studies were evaluated. The maximum entropy model (MAXENT) was used in the analysis of these indices. The analysis, which was carried out in several locations during different periods of the year (spring and autumn), shows the varying applicability of individual groups of indices. Regardless of the season, chlorophyll-based indices (MCARI—31.8, CARI—26.3, TCARI2—24.3 average percentage contribution) made the most significant contribution to the creation of probability maps of the occurrence of waterlogged areas. However, more accurate results could be achieved in the spring period by using the NVI index (40.5 average percentage contribution). The results show that remote sensing could be used for the identification of waterlogged sites, especially for initial identification, which should then be confirmed by field survey. Furthermore, the research points out the role of the LAI and chlorophyll content. According to the NVI, low LAI contributes the most to the probability of occurrence in the spring season, while chlorophyll-based indices prove to be the best, contributing high values, which is rather contradictory but could be resolved only by subsequent field research.

Known as "Simsar" in Nepal, wetlands are those areas which lie between the land and deepwater and remian waterlogged or submerged under water, seasonally or throughout the year. Generally the land is so muddy that one cannot easily walk over it, and water is so deep that one can neither swim nor get drowned. River floodplains, shallow margins of lakes and reservoirs, shallow and seasonal ponds, islands in rivers, deepwater paddy fields, and sea-coasts are typical examples of wetlands.Keywords: Lowland wetland, Nepaldoi: 10.3126/on.v6i1.1657Our Nature (2008)6:67-77

Abstract:
Afforestation of agricultural lands may be in many cases a positive step. Especially, it is a beneficial with waterlogged soils, stony soils or for soils which are for any other reason less fertile and unsuitable for farming. Even too in the agricultural landscape, afforestation can be very important by the breaking of large farm blocks by windbreakers and bio-corridors. The value, quality and fertility of soil can be assessed in different ways. The aim of this study is to determine the criteria for the identification of agricultural land suitable for afforestation. This evaluation process is based on Evaluated Soil Ecological Units (BPEJ) that are publicly available and already processed for all agricultural land. The results are represented by complete list of Evaluated Soil Ecological Units that are suitable for afforestation with stating the reason why they were chosen.

Abstract:
Puccinellia (puccinellia ciliata) and tall wheatgrass (Thinopyrum ponticum) often show ecological zonation in saline landscapes, with puccinellia occurring in less elevated more saline/waterlogged locations, and tall wheatgrass occurring in more elevated less saline/waterlogged locations. The aims of this study were to: (a) characterize the observed ecological zonation at a field site, (b) quantify the effects of variables likely to explain growth differences of the two plants in glasshouse experiments, and (c) identify and compare anatomical and physiological mechanisms that explain these zonation patterns. At an experiment in the field near Kojonup (0522824E, 6244579N), puccinellia was found to colonise the lower more severely salinised and waterlogged zones of the landscape, with tall wheatgrass occupying the higher less affected zones. These differences in zonation were clearly associated with variance in soil salinity and water-table depth. Glasshouse experiments in soil revealed that low pH values, low calcium concentrations and variation in salinity alone did not explain the ecological zonation observed in the field. However, there was a substantial difference in the responses of the two plant species to waterlogging in combination with salinity. Puccinellia grew better under saline waterlogged conditions than tall wheatgrass, which was associated with better regulation of Na+ and K+ under saline/waterlogged conditions than in tall wheatgrass. Under non-saline conditions, waterlogging (hypoxia) decreased shoot weights in puccinellia by 15% and in tall wheatgrass by 20%. Similar growth results were obtained in nutrient solution culture, where waterlogging was simulated by lowering the oxygen in solutions through bubbling with N2 gas. Under saline hypoxic conditions, puccinellia, compared to tall wheatgrass, showed increased growth and maintenance of selectivity of K+ over Na+ across adventitious roots. Solution experiments revealed adaptive traits responsible for conveying better growth and ion maintenance present in puccinellia, but not tall wheatgrass, such as inducement of a barrier to radial oxygen loss in the basal regions of adventitious roots (not previously reported in the literature for puccinellia), formation of root aerenchyma and packing of cortical cells and suberin deposition in hypodermal and endodermal root cell layers. These results should assist in targeting pasture species, and predicting their growth response, in saline and waterlogged landscapes. Further work on examining the genetic material of puccinellia is warranted in order to identify genes that could be transferred into crop plants to convey salt and waterlogging tolerance.

Abstract:
The East Barmoya and adjoining catchments in coastal central Queensland are suffering classic symptoms of dryland salinity, brought on by clearing of dry-rainforests in their upper catchments. The problem became manifest in the 1920-30s, expanded rapidly in the 1950s and has intermittently increased until the present, lagging some 20 to 30 years behind the period of large scale clearing in the catchment. Plant succession onto the new saline environment is considered, and a production system involving marine couch (Sporobolus virginicus) and swamp-oak (Casuarina glauca) is advocated. The role of soil mounding and mulching for the establishment of Casuarina glauca onto waterlogged, salinized land (water-table within 1 m of soil surface, surface soil EC1:5 0.0-0.1 m c. 10 dS.m -1) in Central Queensland was investigated in a factorial experiment involving two levels of soil mounding (0.05 and 0.15 m) and four mulch conditions (no mulch, hay, black and white plastic). Mounding was of little effect on plant survival, growth, soil pH or conductivity, however mulching greatly influenced these parameters, with the exception of soil pH. Plastic mulch is recommended over hay mulch. Installation of the plastic mulch was mechanized, involving cultivation of the soil to mix surface salts, mounding of soil into an M cross-section to harvest rain water to the seedling, and use of a commercial mulchlayer for plastic film installation. An established individual swamp-oak was found to use 8-11 L.d-1 of groundwater. Using a steady state model for the water-table depression due to water extraction from a well and assuming that the tree used only groundwater, the depression was calculated to be c. 1 m (steady state) for the low hydraulic conductivity soils (clays) that typify dryland salinity discharge sites. During a forty day period, the tree caused a water-table depression of 10 cm, relative to a reference point 10 m from the tree. Further, a diurnal oscillation of 1 cm occurred in the water-table under the tree. With water use by the single tree considered to be sufficient to cause localized inhibition of the unsaturated flow of groundwater to the soil surface, an estimation was made of the density of trees required to lower the water-table beyond the capillary fringe and thereby reverse the salinization process.

Abstract:
Peatlands are fascinating wetland ecosystems. They provide a habitat for a wide range of highly adapted plant and animal species. In addition to the floristic and ornithological richness, peatlands have been recognized for many other values. For instance, drained peatland soils often have good agricultural properties, and peat has been and still is in some places extensively used as fuel. In coastal wetlands peat has even been used for salt extraction. Furthermore, peat is an interesting material for science, as it contains information on the palaeoecological environment, climate change, carbon history, and archaeology. In north-western Europe, peatlands were once quite extensive, covering tens of thousands of square kilometres. However, most of them have been strongly exploited by humans during past centuries. Many peatlands have been cultivated for agriculture and forestry, or have been exploited by commercial or domestic peat extraction for fuel. As a result, only a very small part of north-western Europe’s peatlands remains today in a more or less natural state. This chapter focuses on the peat deposits and peatlands in north-western Europe that have formed since the Late Glacial (c.13 ka BP). First, the most common concepts in peatland terminology are explained, and the distribution of peatlands is described. Next, processes of peat formation and the relationship between peatforming processes and climate, hydrology, vegetation, and other factors are discussed. In the following section, frequently used classification methods are presented. A historical overview of the cultivation and exploitation of peatlands is given and the present land use and characteristics of peatland soils are discussed. The following section deals with methods of conservation and rehabilitation of the remaining mires. The importance of peatlands as palaeoecological archives is examplified. Finally, the role of peatlands as a source and/or sink of CO2 and the relations with climate change are briefly explained. Peat is the unconsolidated material that predominantly consists of slightly decomposed or undecomposed organic material in which the original cellular and tissue structures can often be identified. Peat forms in lakes and mires under waterlogged, anaerobic conditions.

Abstract:
Soil waterlogging due to excess moisture resulting in hypoxic soil conditions can have detrimental effect on development of many dryland plants growing in locations with temporary water logged soils. Oxygen stress in hypoxic soils can lead to decrease root water uptake and transpiration compared to well aerated soil conditions. In turn reduction of transpiration have a positive effect on soil water budget facilitating the preservation of waterlogged state of the soil. We investigate this phenomenon in a greenhouse pot experiment using sweet corn Zea mays var. saccharate as a model species. After establishment seedlings were subject to a differentiated watering regime ranging for now watering to heavy overwatering resulting in soil waterlogging and flooding. It was observed that the elongation rate of maize seedlings decreased once soil was waterlogged. However soon after soil flooding the elongation reassumed coinciding with appearance of new adventitious roots taping the water layer above flooded soils surface. It is concluded the ability of root system adaptation to change in soil water regime determines the plant species success in sites with periodically waterlogged soils. The feedback between soil aeration status and water uptake can result in swinging between waterlogged and desiccated soil conditions, providing competitive advantages to different sets of species during dry-land and wet-land phases.
