One of the ordinary methods to protect, rehabilitate, and enhance an ecosystemfunction in arid and semi-arid areas of the world is sand dune stabilization using biologicalpractices. Plantation of species on the soil plays a great role in sustainable management ofthe ecosystem. This research studies the effects of cultivation of Haloxylon ammodendronand Atriplex canescens on physical-chemical ch...

With the focus on new available hyperspectral imaging sensors sensitive within the thermal infrared (TIR) wavelength region, this study is testing the ability of the TIR in deriving soil erosion relevant parameters (e.g. texture, organic carbon content) from soil spectral measurements with the respect to commonly used VNIR-SWIR spectrometers. Therefore a study site was chosen located within an ...

Soil erosion is one of the major environmental problems in terms soil degradation Shirvan plain Republic Azerbaijan. leads to significant on- and off-site impacts such as decrease productive capacity land sedimentation. The key aspects influencing quantity mainly rely on vegetation cover, topography, type, climate. This research studies quantification under different levels data availability pl...

Substantial runoff is a feature of the Ethiopian Nile River Basin because its soils are erodible and poorly organized, resulting in high soil loss sedimentation rates. The rate erosion basin was reported to be quite variable, which could owing methodology utilized data quality used. By reviewing recent studies, this review primarily aimed give information on range Recent studies at small waters...

Soil Erosion is the detachment, transportation and deposition of soil sediment from one place to another. This has led loss lives infrastructure in many parts Nigeria. properties play a role it vulnerability extent erosion. study aims evaluate selected physical as they interact cause erosion area. The was conducted 2012 gully site relation its potential erodibility channel. done by collection v...

Due to extensive advertising of black salve's effectiveness in "curing" skin cancers and healing other skin conditions, many patients are turning to self-treating with black salve. Although black salve has not been proven to have anticancer properties, application of black salve has been shown to cause damage to healthy tissue and the need for further treatment. We describe a 35-year-old woman ...

Medial tibial plateaux excised during 46 unicompartmental arthroplasties for osteoarthritis were collected and photographed. The anterior cruciate ligament was intact in all joints. In every case the cartilage and bone erosion was centred anteriorly on the plateau and the posterior cartilage was intact. The site of the lesion and the intact state of the cruciate ligaments taken together explain...

Identifying optimal sites on raster maps is a complex problem when the sites are larger than the cell size. Optimal sites involves a tradeoff between the intrinsic characteristics of individual cells and the spatial configuration of the cells. Although there are a number of techniques to solve the site allocation problem, those solutions do not consider spatial interactions between the cells fo...
