The role of complex life cycles in patterns of estuarine habitat use can be evaluated by studying stage-specific changes in abundances between principal habitats. Here, we evaluated how two primary habitats, tidal freshwater (salinity !3) and brackish water (salinity 3e15), structured juvenile white perch (Morone americana) abundance for eight sub-estuaries of the Chesapeake Bay. In addition, a...

Dryland salinity is a major land management issue globally, and results in the abandonment of farmland. Revegetation with halophytic shrub species such as Atriplex nummularia for carbon mitigation may be a viable option but to generate carbon credits ongoing monitoring and verification is required. This study investigated the utility of high-resolution airborne images (Digital Multi Spectral Im...

In order to investigate the effect of seed inoculation with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobactria (PGPR) on germination and some biochemical and physiological indices of Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) under salinity stress, an experiment was conducted. Experimental factors were included in seed priming in five levels (seed inoculation with three strains of Pf2, Pf25 and CHA0 of Pseudomonas fluorescen...

Salicornia is a valuable halophyte annual plant in the most species. This salinity tolerance plant that grows in salt water marshes are found all over the world. Since salinity is a major stress factor, Salicornia is a priceless edible vegetable, considered to be a favourable resource for cultivation in arid and semiarid coastal zones. However, the important thing is ...

The creation of salt-tolerant wheat genotypes can provide a basis for sustainable production in areas that are particularly sensitive to the impacts climate change on soil salinity. This study aimed select could serve as genetic resource breeding salinity tolerance. A two-year experiment was established with 27 genotypes, grown stress and non-stress conditions. Agronomic parameters (plant heigh...
