Erodibility status of soils under different land uses in Longleng district soils of Nagaland

Physicochemical Characteristics and Nutrient Status of Hilly Soils of Dimapur district of Nagaland

In the present investigation, physicochemical properties, lime requirement, fertility status and DTPA extractable Zn of soils of Dimapur district of Nagaland were studied. The soils of study area were strong to moderate acidic in reaction with pH ranged from 4.12 to 5.30 and were normal in total soluble salts. The CEC of the soils was quite low, varied from 10.4 to 14.0 cmol (P) kg . The averag...

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...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Urban Soils of Different Land Uses in Miami, Florida

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous organic pollutants in urban environments and are considered as the priority pollutants by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. The objective of this study was to determine the depth-wise distribution (0–15, 15–30, and 30–45 cm) of 16 PAHs compounds in four urban soils of different land uses (residential, public parks, public buildings,...

Relation between swelling and erodibility of cohesive soils

Topsoil characteristics of three contrasting New Zealand soils under four long-term land uses

Marton (Argillic Perched-gley Pallic, Typic Endoaqualf), Ohakune (Typic Orthic Allophanic, Typic Hapludand), and Westmere (Mottled Mafic Melanic, Mollic Hapludalf) soils with differing structural vulnerability were compared at matched sites under different land uses. Topsoil samples (0-10 cm) from indigenous forest (>50 yr), permanent pasture (>50 yr), pine plantation (>20 yr), or arable croppi...
