Characterization of salt-affected soils of Faizabad district

Characterization of Salt - Affected Soils Using Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Data – a Case Study of Mathura District, Uttar Pradesh, India

Soil salinity / alkalinity development is one of the major land degradation problem affecting sustainable agricultural productivity in irrigated areas of arid and semi arid regions of the world. The characterization and mapping of salt affected soils is difficult as the salt concentration may vary substantially over short distances. Various broadband multi-spectral satellite data and spectral i...

Effectiveness of spectral data reduction in detection of salt-affected soils in a small study area

     Data reduction is used to aggregate or amalgamate the large data sets into smaller and manageable information pieces in order to fast and accurate classification of different attributes. However, excessive spatial or spectral data reduction may result in losing or masking important radiometric information. Therefore, we conducted this research to evaluate the effectiveness of the different...

Management of Salt-affected Soils for Sugarcane Production

To evaluate the effect of gypsum and manure on the yield and quality of sugarcane and properties of sodic soils, an experiment was conducted on farmer’s field at Dosehra area, District Charsadda during Kharif 2004. Ten treatments comprised of control (T1), gypsum @ 25 % of the soil requirement (T2), gypsum @ 50 % (T3), gypsum @ 75 % (T4), gypsum @ 100 % (T5), farm yard manure (FYM) @ 20 tons ha...

Assessment and Characterization of Microbial Communities in Salt Affected Soils on Galveston Island

morphology, geochemistry, mineralogy, and micromorphology of soils of hormozgan province in relation to parent materials

ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...
