This research combined data from soil, terrain and meteorological surveys, with quantitative data from soil and water field studies to determine the leaching processes of nitrogen and phosphorus contaminants from field vegetation into the Dagu River. Using the Gray correlation analysis method, precipitation and irrigation were established as the major driving force behind leaching losses from c...

groundwater contamination by nitrate is a globally growing problem due to the population growth and increase of demand for food supplies.increasing nitrate concentrations in soil solution and leaching into the ground water table cause water pollution and disturbs the ecological balance. in addition to natural nitrogen cycle, nitrate can be entered to soil and water from the human waste, urban a...

introduction soil salinity is a major limiting factor in agricultural development within iran. nitrogen is the most important nutrient that its uptake is limited over other elements under saline conditions due to decrease in the permeability of plant roots, soil microbial activity and mineralization of organic compounds and nitrate uptake by high concentrations of chloride anions in the root zo...

The soil column samples were collected for indoor simulated freeze-thaw experiments to monitor the hydrothermal dynamics and measure basic physicochemical properties research effects of on process peat bog its relationship with properties. results indicate that in initial phase freezing-thawing, water content decreases temperature changes, respectively. Unfrozen stable freezing period sharply. ...

using caustic alkaline solution (Stevenson, 1994). Some studies have suggested that HS have only an apparent Plants have evolved with roots in close contact with the solid phase high molecular size, which can be reversibly disrupted of the soil. Therefore, root exudates may be a better medium for by treating humic solutions with low concentrations of extracting low molecular size (LMS) organic ...

One of the beneficial roles of riparian buffers is the capacity to attenuate groundwater nitrate before it can discharge to streams. Denitrification is one of the most important processes that permanently removes nitrate from groundwater; it requires anoxic conditions, a carbon source, and a suitable residence time as the reaction is microbially mediated. As denitrification rates are highly dep...

in this research, synthesis and characterization of silver/alumina composite powders was investigated. this kind of metal/ceramic composite powders is used for fabrication of cutting tools inserts. the role of silver is toughening the final product. the powders were synthesized via co-precipitation method. the composition of the synthesized powders was ag/80% wt 〖al〗_2 o_3. silver nitrate, alum...

The Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM, V 3.25) was used to simulate the effect of swine manure applications on nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) concentrations in subsurface drain water from continuous corn for Iowa soils. Measured values of subsurface drain flow, NO3-N concentrations in drainage water, and residual NO3-N in the soil profile from three chisel plow plots were available for the growing...
