This study was conducted to evaluate the impact of municipal waste compost and manure on soil chemical and physical properties quality and crop production in Sari city (north of Iran). In this study, the effect of compost and manure (cow and sheep) on the quality of soil organic material with experimental measurements was investigated. An experiment was conducted in a completely randomized desi...

1. introduction dust storm is a natural phenomenon that occurs frequently in the arid and semi-arid regions all over the world (alijani, 1997). dust can affect soil fertility, forests, rivers, lakes, and marine ecosystems around the world (mctainsh et al., 2007). therefore, soil erosion can lead to the loss of the minerals and organic matter of topsoil. some elements of dust have also an indire...

abstract- the information on the spatial properties of soil is vital to improve soil management and to increase the crop productivity. geostatistical analysis technique is one of the most important methods for determining the spatial properties of soil. the aim of this study was to investigate spatial variability of soil chemical and physical attributes for field management in eastern shiraz, i...

soil texture is an important soil physical property that governs most physical, chemical, biological, and hydrological processes in soils. detailed information on soil texture variability is crucial for proper crop and land management and environmental studies. therefore, at present research, 103 soil profiles were dogged and then sampled in order to prepare digital map of soil texture in bijar...

small precipitation with temporal and spatial variation of rainfall is the main responsible factors on flood occurrence in arid and semi arid regions. floods in their regions usually contain high concentration of sediments which when they are deposited on the surface of lands, they change the properties of soils of the area. in this research, the effect of floodwater spreading on physic-chemica...
