Use of Low Altitude Aviris Data for Identifying Salt Affected Soil Surfaces in Western Fresno County, California
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is a report on a limited evaluation of the low altitude Airborne Visible and Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) data, for identifying soil salinity and organic matter concentrations in soils using specific spectral bands cited in the literature. This study is part of a larger investigation for using AVIRIS as the image data layer in developing terrain models to simulate the content and spatial extent of surface soil organic and inorganic carbon.

Methylene Blue Is Effective to Reverse Refractory Hemodynamic Instability due to Dimethoate Poisoning
Background:Organophosphates are commercially available agrochemicals for pest control, but may be abused for deliberate self-poisoning. We report a case of suicidal ingestion of dimethoate, a moderately toxic organophosphate insecticide, which can cause refractory hemodynamic instability, and the successful use of methylene blue (MB) for counteracting this complication. Case Presentation: An u...
متن کاملتغییر شاخصهای کیفیت خاک در اثر احیای زمینهای شور دشت ابرکوه در ایران مرکزی
The salt–affected lands in arid regions of central Iran are characterized by low rainfall, low fertility, high evaporation and salinity. The cultivation of salt–affected lands may have a major influence on soil quality. The aim of this study was to determine the response of soil quality indicators to reclamation and cultivation of salt–affected lands occurring in Abarkooh plain, central Iran. S...

Low soil fertility and high weed infestation are the main culprits for the declining maize production inWestern Kenya. Technology packages to address these constraints exist, but their effectiveness is likely to be influenced by variability in soil types and farm management practices in the region. Trials were conducted during the 2008/2009 cropping seasons to investigate the nutrient use e...
متن کاملThe Effect of reclamation of salt affected lands to Cropland on soil quality indicators
In this study the effects of land use change from salt affected land to cropland on soil quality indicators were studied in Chahafzal region, Yazd province, central Iran. Composite soil samples from 0-30 and 30-60 cm depths of saline and cultivated land were taken. Soil particle size distribution, calcium carbonate, Available water capacity (AWC), Electrical conductivity (ECe), Soil reaction (p...
