Labile fractions of soil organic matter (SOM) respond rapidly to land management practices and can be used as a sensitive indicator of changes in SOM. However, there is little information about the effect of agroforestry practices on labile SOM fractions in semiarid regions of China. In order to test the effects of land use change from monocropping to agroforestry systems on labile SOM fraction...

In many rivers of the Amazon, mainly along Amazon River, phenomenon "fallen land" occurs at time rivers' ebb, causing erosion river banks, resulting in major social and economic problems. The influence saturation/percolation soil layers on shear resistance affected massifs is unknown. Thus, main objective characterization geotechnical modelling these slopes to determine strength massifs. For th...

MUNISHI, P. K. T., SHEAR, T. H., WENTWORTH, T. & TEMU, R. A. P. C. 2007. Compositional gradients of plant communities in submontane rainforests of eastern Tanzania. This study classified plant communities and examined the environmental correlates of community compositions in two submontane rainforests on the ranges of Eastern Arc Mountains, Tanzania. Using agglomerative cluster analysis, indica...

Different types of soil respond variably to biochar amendment. Soil structure and fertility are properties which strongly affect the impacts on microbial activity. A pot experiment with lettuce was conducted verify whether amendment is more beneficial in sandy than clay soil. The nutrient content (carbon nitrogen), biomass carbon, respiration, metabolic quotient, plant yield were determined. tr...

abstract time domain reflectometry (tdr) is a widely used method for measuring the dielectric constant (ka) and bulk electrical conductivity (σa) in soils. the tdr-measured σa and ka can be used to calculate the soil solution electrical conductivity, (σp). a theoretical model describing a linear relationship between bulk electrical conductivity, σa, and dielectric constant, ka, in moist soil wa...

sodic soil is one of the most common problems of limiting agricultural production that related on irrigation. saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of hydrodynamic characteristics in evaluating transmission flow through underground levels. to investigate the role of increment of exchangeable sodium in hydraulic conductivity changes (as characterized by the mobility of water in soil) an experi...

Abstract The Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN), historically known as ‘Rohingya’ who fled the 2017 ethnic atrocities and genocide in Northern Rakhine State of Myanmar, took shelter Cox’s Bazar District Bangladesh. camp network, Kutupalong Rohingya Camp (KRC), is situated tectonically active tertiary hilly terrain. KRC has been experiencing hydrometeorological hazards, where landslides...
