some soil physical and chemical characteristics were analyzed in order to reveal the relationship between forest soils and regeneration patches. gorazbon district of kheyrud was selected as a case study for the research area. all regeneration patches were recorded using gps device. to assess the spatial structure and to quantify the metrics of regeneration patches, analyzing of landscape metric...

Objective: Returning crop residue to the soil exerts favorable effects on physical and chemical properties of soil. In fact, the plant residues can affect soil conditions such as pH and important role in soil fertility and cycling of elements in the soil may have. In addition to the role of the organic matter from decomposition of crop residue in increasing the concentration of micronutrients i...

residue management has a direct impact on soil physical and chemical characteristics which in turn have identical effects on sustainability of crop production in agroecosystems. the effects of wheat residual management practices (burning, plowing under and removal) on soil physical and chemical characteristics were investigated in this research. treatments were compared in a complete block desi...

Rangelands are very diverse, and they spread from low vegetation desert areas to those with more rainfall and more cover In saline and desert areas, there are many restrictions on vegetation establishment, hence the use of amendments. The study area is located south of Nazarabad city in Alborz province, Iran. In this study, different amendments, such as mineral biochar, arbuscular mycorrhiza fu...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various chemical disinfectants in decontamination of gutta-percha (GP) cones contaminated with Bacillus subtilis spores. Sodium hypochlorite solution (4%), glutaraldehyde solution (2%), povidone-iodine solution (5%), and savlon solutions were compared for effectiveness in sterilizing gutta-percha cones contaminated with Bacillus sub...

This study evaluates the spatial heterogeneity of the soil chemical properties of surface soils across a 1 ha old-growth subtropical karst forest in southwest China.
