Tree Species Traits Influence Soil Physical, Chemical, and Biological Properties in High Elevation Forests
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that plants often have species-specific effects on soil properties. In high elevation forests in the Southern Rocky Mountains, North America, areas that are dominated by a single tree species are often adjacent to areas dominated by another tree species. Here, we assessed soil properties beneath adjacent stands of trembling aspen, lodgepole pine, and Engel...
متن کاملEffect of different poultry wastes on physical, chemical and biological properties of soil
The effect of poultry waste application on physicochemical and biological properties of sandy clay loam soil was investigated on a 7m X 7m plot of land. Plot was divided into four portions and 7.5kg each of broiler, cockerel and layers waste was applied to plot A, B, and C in slurry form while plot D was used as control(no application) for eight weeks with two weeks interval. After the fourth a...

This study was conducted to evaluate the impact of municipal waste compost and manure on soil chemical and physical properties quality and crop production in Sari city (north of Iran). In this study, the effect of compost and manure (cow and sheep) on the quality of soil organic material with experimental measurements was investigated. An experiment was conducted in a completely randomized desi...
متن کاملInfluence of Physical, Chemical, and Biological Mine Soil Properties on White Oak Seedling Growth
Landowners in the Appalachian region are becoming increasingly interested in restoring the native hardwood forest on mined land after reclamation. Trees are usually planted in topsoil substitutes consisting of blasted rock strata from the geologic profile. Reforestation attempts using native hardwoods have often been unsuccessful due to the highly variable nature of the physical, chemical, and ...
متن کاملAssessment of Effect of Road or Road Construction on Soil Physical and Chemical Properties in Northern Forests of Iran
Forests are an important economic source for human and have key role in nutrient cycle, hydrology and ecosystem performance, any interference in this vital ecosystem causes to damage to forests. Mechanical logging and road construction in forest areas have led to much soil compaction. Soil physical and chemical properties were studied in parts of road and non-road in the Darabkola forest of Ira...
