Abstract Erosion is a natural phenomenon in the form of erosion upper soil surface by movement water, therefore conservation actions are carried out, one which provision organic matter. This research was conducted on Kemang Bogor latosol with slope 7, 9 and 14 percent given material mulch as much 3 tons/ha 6 spread evenly over surface, included mixed into soil. The results showed that applicati...

The Southwestern United States desert serves as the host for several threatened and endangered species, one of which is the desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii). The goal of this study was to develop a fine-scale, remote-sensing-based approach that indicates favorable burrow locations for G. agassizii in the Boulder City (Nevada) Conservation Easement area (35,500 ha). This was done by analyzin...

In this research, turbulent MHD convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties is investigated numerically. The finite volume method is applied to model the fluid flow and natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity. The fluid flow and heat transfer were simulated and compared for two cases constant and variable properties. It is observed that for the case variable pro...

today, determination of the ecological species groups for current and future situation of forest and its relationship with environmental factors is necessary for forest management. for this purpose, 50 plots were established in altitude range of 2091- 2811 meters above sea level and 600 hectare in protected area of western dena. four ecological groups was identified using twinspan analysis that...

In April 1995, the USDA Forest Service conducted a prescribed burn along with a south-facing slope of southern Appalachian watershed, Nantahala National Forest, western NC. Fire had been excluded for over 70 years and the purpose of the burn was to create a mosaic of fire intensities to restore a degraded pine/hardwood community and to stimulate forage production and promote oak regeneration al...
