Abstract We investigated the individual and synergistic impact of gypsum, elemental sulfur, vermicompost, biochar, microbial inoculation on soil health improvement in degrading calcareous saline-sodic soils. developed Linear nonlinear quantification frameworks to assess efficacy remedial practices. The combined inoculated chemical organic treatments; gypsum + vermicompost sulfur with 134% (0.29...

Salt-affected soils contain high levels of soluble salts (saline soil) and exchangeable sodium (alkali soil). Globally, about 932 million ha (Mha), including 831 Mha agricultural land, is salt-affected. Salinity sodicity adversely affect soil microbial diversity enzymatic activities, thereby carbon nitrogen dynamics greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from soils. In this review article, we synthesiz...

Sodic soil is one of the most common problems of limiting agricultural production that related on irrigation. Saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of hydrodynamic characteristics in evaluating transmission flow through underground levels. To investigate the role of increment of exchangeable sodium in hydraulic conductivity changes (as characterized by the mobility of water in soil) an experi...

to find the nutritional condition of plants as related to the tatus of soil nutrients, also for an evaluation of soil solution toxicity and nutrition of plants in salt affected soils, it is preferred to study the activity of these elements rather than their concentrations. to calculate the ionic strength of a solution the concentrations of all cations and anions are needed which is very time co...

Triassic eclogite and blueschist facies rocks occur as a thrust sheet, 25-km long and over 2-km thick, in an Eocene fold-andthrust belt in northwest Turkey along the İzmir–Ankara suture. The thrust sheet consists mainly of metabasites with minor marble, phyllite and metachert, and rare lenses of serpentinite. The common blueschist facies mineral assemblage in the metabasites is sodic amphibole ...

PURPOSE To investigate clinical and histologically the bone repair in treated animals with calcitonin and sodic diclofenac. METHODS Ninety-six femoral defects were created in forty-eight animals distributed in four groups (n=24): either left untreated, treated with the sodic diclofenac or calcitonin or both. Follow-up was 7, 14 and 21 days. Histological sections stained by haematoxylin-eosin ...

Reclamation of sodic soils has traditionally been undertaken using calculation of gypsum or Ca requirement assuming 100% exchange efficiency and neglect of the contribution of calcium carbonate in the profile. The UNSATCHEM model is reviewed and then evaluated for its ability to predict field reclamation of a sodic saline soil. The 40-ha field site was initially at an electrical conductivity (E...
