Land salinization is widespread in countries of the arid zone, including Aral Sea basin, where 4 million hectares irrigated land are salt-affected, causing high economic losses. Current saline soil reclamation practices include leaching and deep drainage to remove excess water outside zone. Growing pressure on limited resources makes this practice ineffective. An alternative biological methods ...

In experiments carried out in greenhouses, some authors have shown that ammonium sulphate induces greater soil acidity and salinity than other sources of N. Moreover, nitrif ication inhibitors (NI) tend to cause ammonium to accumulate in soil by retarding its oxidation to nitrate. This accumulated ammonium would also have an effect on soil salinity. Consequently, the aim of this paper was to ev...

water and soil pollution by human pathogenic bacteria draw attention of many researchers. duration of bacterial survival for reach to the soil and water resources is very important. current study focused on the effects of caco3 and caso4 compounds on escherichia coli survival. using caco3, caso4 compounds and fine sand particles (

evaporation from the soil surface has an important role in the water balance model in nature, so that the major part of rain fall and irrigation water in arid and semi-arid regions is lost via evaporation from the soil surface. in such areas, there are some regions with high water table and because of evaporation from the soil surface, salts accumulation also occur in the soil surface. so evapo...

As the climate changes, the effects of agriculture on the environment may change. In the future, an increasing frequency of climate extremes, such as droughts, heat waves, and excess moisture, is expected. Past research on the interaction between environment and resources has focused on climate change effects on various sectors, including agricultural production (especially crop production), bu...

due to limitation of available water and soil resources in iran, the challenge of optimizing the utilization of these resources has become more significant. one of the solutions to the economic, planning and optimization of water use and achieve the optimum level of water use is associated with improved farming activities and this is the most important agricultural research needs. the study of ...
