an important part of carbon cycling is carried out in the soil making land use changes, including changes in forestlands, affect soc storage and consequently co2 flux into the atmosphere.the aims followed in this investigation were to study the impacts of conversion of deciduous forests to coniferous ones and deforested land to rangelands, on some of the soil physicochemical properties, organic...

the long term effects of sewage water irrigation on soil properties and heavy metal concentrations at rohtak city, haryana (india) was investigated. at each location, soil samples were collected from the upper layer (0-10cm) for determination of various physico-chemical parameters. heavy metals (pb, cu, mn, zn, cd, ni, and fe) were also determined. the chemical analysis of sewage effluent showe...

the effect of tillage (conventional and zero tillage), crop establishment (raised-bed and flat-bed), and weed management practices (herbicide alone and integrated approach) was studied on productivity, profitability, nutrient uptake and physico-chemical properties of soil in soybean–wheat cropping system, at new delhi during 2010–2012. sixteen treatment combinations consisting of four tillage a...

analyses and thermal infrared channels 4 and 5 noaa- avhrr images. this research was carried out in lut desert located in center of sub-tropical divergence dominant in' iranian plateau. the physical and thermal properties of the various desert surfaces have been determined using correlation relationships between the desert variables including: dark sand, normal sand, marl, saline soil, soil dep...

With the rise of sustainable development, rehabilitation of brownfield sites located in urban areas has become a major concern. Management of contaminated soils in relation with environmental and sanitary risk concerns is therefore a strong aim needing the development of both useful tools for risk assessment and sustainable remediation techniques. For soils polluted by metals and metalloids (MT...

Sugars and other sweeteners are often the main components of a confection. Besides making them sweet, they also provide bulk to the candy. However, the physico-chemical properties of the sweeteners do more than just provide bulk. The physical characteristics of a candy, which include consistency, chewy or stretchy characteristics, melt-in-the-mouth behavior, flavor release, and many other prope...
