Effect of the Use Treated Wastewater on Microbial Contamination of Soils of Urban Landscapes
Background & objective: Microbial contamination is one of the main concerns about the use of treated wastewater in irrigation. Therefore, the present study conducted to investigate the effect of treated wastewater on microbial contamination of urban landscape soils in Zahedan. Material & methods: In this study, a 1600 m2 plot of palm trees in Zahedan were irrigated with treated wastewater and o...
متن کاملLong-Term Effects of Irrigation with Waste Water on Soil AM Fungi Diversity and Microbial Activities: The Implications for Agro-Ecosystem Resilience
The effects of irrigation with treated urban wastewater (WW) on the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) diversity and soil microbial activities were assayed on a long-term basis in a semiarid orange-tree orchard. After 43 years, the soil irrigated with fresh water (FW) had higher AMF diversity than soils irrigated with WW. Microbial activities were significantly higher in the soils irrigated wit...
متن کاملSolute transport as affected by surface land characteristics in gravely calcareous arid soils
Gravely calcareous soils cover approximately most of arid lands (in percent); however, the solute transport behavior in these soils remains a current issue. This research aimed at estimating and correlating the solute transport parameters in gravely calcareous soils as being affected by different land uses through the knowledge of the soil morphological, physical, and chemical properties. Four ...
متن کاملGeochemical Analysis of Soil Physicochemical Properties and Heavy Metals Content in the Long- term Wastewater-irrigated Soils
Exploring the homogenous regions for site specific management is important, especially in the areas under different anthropogenic activities. This was investigated using multi-way analysis including Factor Analysis, Hierarchical Clustering Analysis and k means in the areas under long-term wastewater irrigation over a period of more than 40 years, in Shahre Rey, south of Tehran. By using Factor ...
متن کاملConservation Tillage Systems for Corn Production on a Loessial Silt Loam and Alluvial Clay in Louisiana
Corn acreage has increased in recent years in Louisiana. Much of this is on mixed to heavy Mississippi River alluvial soils and to a lesser extent on loessial silt loams of the Macon Ridge. Each of these soil groups are unique in their phys ical and chemical characteristics and different management strategies may be required to produce optimal yield. Research has indicated that corn performs b...
