background and purpose: in the process of rapid urbanization and industrialization in developing countries, environmental pollution is a major concern. one of the fastest growing problems of environmental pollution is an excessive intake of lead in urban soils. lead concentrations in urban soil may result from human activities such as vehicle emissions and industrial activities. this study aime...

Soil organic matter (SOM) is an important soil property for agricultural production. Rising grain demand has increased the intensity of cultivated land development in Sanjiang Plain China, and there a strong SOM monitoring this region. Therefore, Baoqing County Plain, production area, was considered study area. In study, we proposed framework high-accuracy retrieval by coupling multi-temporal r...

this study aims to assess the effect of grazing intensity on vegetation structure, soil nutrient concentrations and soil physical properties. the study was carried out in steppe rangelands of saveh, markazi province, iran. four sites with four grazing intensities including very high, high, moderate and non-grazed with the same ecological conditions were selected. to study various vegetation and...

This study evaluated the spatial and temporal distribution and density of the bivalve Donax striatus, at beaches close to the Apodi/Mossoró River estuary, through, six semiannual sampling campaigns were performed between April/2009 and October/2011. The sampled area was delimited by 20 transects that were laid perpendicular to the beach line and extended over 300 m in the intertidal zone. Seven...

the geometric mean particle diameter (dg) and lime are two of the most important properties from the viewpoint of soil management. nowadays remote sensing technology which has emerged walking with science development throughout the world, has made soil study faster, more facile and more cost-efficient. an investigation of soil dg and lime was performed in pol-e-dokhtar area by use of four sets ...
