The adsorption study was conducted on three Japanese soils with different soil properties to characterize the adsorption pattern of Arsenic (As). Double tube method was used to find out the effect of soil moisture levels on As adsorption. For this study, besides double tube method, conventional batch method also was used. The As adsorption showed two phase kinetics. An initial and rapid adsorpt...

Unexploded ordnance (UXO) is a source of concern at several U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) sites. Localization of munitions and fate and transport of the explosive compounds from these munitions are a major issue of concern. A set of laboratory experiments were conducted in specially designed flux chambers to measure the evaporative flux of three explosive compounds (2,4-dinitrotoluene, 2,6-d...

Dust is a common atmospheric phenomenon in Iran especially in central arid regions.  This severely affects environment as well as resident’s health. Among the results of this phenomenon are Respiratory diseases, bash radiation, accelerated soil erosion, Desertification and degradation of ecosystems. Some dusts are originated from local desert conditions but adjacency to neighboring countries de...

abstract irrigation planning and management requires continious monitoring and measurements of soil moisture content. application of gypsum blockes (gb) are common in soil moisture measurements. gb readings are subjected to its geometry and soil solution concentration. this study was carried on 90 gb in research greenhouse of faculty agricultural, ferdowsi university of mashhad. at the begining...

ABSTRACT- To evaluate effects of different soil moisture conditions namely, phosphorus (P) and zinc (Zn) application, on extractable Zn and Fe, two experiments were conducted in laboratory conditions based on a completely randomized design with a factorial arrangement of treatments with two replications. The first experiment was performed with the following factors; incubation time at four leve...
