in order to assess the adaptation of elaeagnus angustifolia l. and fraxinus rotundifolia mill afforestation around tabriz international airport, the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of trees were measured in 96 experimental circular plots with a size of 300 m2. to study the edaphic effects of these species, nine samples were randomly collected from 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm depth of soil...

We investigated two approaches for large-scale analysis and prediction of the spatial distribution of soil properties in an agricultural landscape in the Canadian prairies. The first approach was based on the implementation of nine types of digital terrain models (DTMs) and regression analysis of soil and topographic data. The second approach used a concept of accumulation, transit, and dissipa...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of reforestation on physical and chemical soil properties particularly soil carbon storage in the berenjastanak forest. forestations were including acer velotinum boiss., fraxinus excelsior l., populus nigra l. and pinus brutia ten. a witness forest with mixed species was selected as region potential. four soil profiles were drilled in each fo...

The present study examines the effects of historic climate variability on cold-season processes, including soil temperature, frost depth, and the number of frost days and freeze–thaw cycles. Considering the importance of spatial and temporal variability in cold-season processes, the study was conducted in the midwestern United States using both observations and model simulations. Model simulati...

The regulatory functions of soil are getting attention among the scientists and Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) is an important indicator of soil health. The impact of differential use of land on SOC and other edaphic properties were analysed in three important Land use land cover (LULC) system of Tripura, northeast India. Soil cores were divided into four depth profiles (0 10, 10 30, 30 50 and 50 10...

Spartina alterniflora is an invasive C4 perennial grass, native to North America, and has spread rapidly along the east coast of China since its introduction in 1979. Since its intentional introduction to the Jiuduansha Island in the Yangtze River estuary, Spartina alterniflora community has become one of the dominant vegetation types. We investigated the soil carbon in the Spartina alterniflor...

Using four groups of survey data of soil moisture of winter wheat from returning green stage to harvest stage in Daxing region, the variation laws of soil moisture exponential depletion relations in 0-60cm depths during different growth stage are analyzed ,and based on soil moisture exponential depletion relations the forecast model of soil moisture depletion is built. The results indicate that...

The afforestation of abandoned farmland significantly influences soil organic carbon (OC). However, the dynamics between OC inputs after afforestation and the original OC are not well understood. To learn more about soil OC dynamics after afforestation of farmland, we measured the soil OC content in paired forest and farmland plots in Shaanxi Province, China. The forest plots had been establish...

The depth of sampling is an important factor for evaluating soil stability. The objective of this study was to test soil aggregate particle-size fractions and soil organic carbon (SOC) in water-stable aggregate by vegetation restoration through 0–60 cm soil profile. We collected soil samples in 30 years old Robinia psendoacacia (Rr); Platycladus orientalis (Po); Pinus tabulaeformis (Pt); abando...

This is a preliminary study of the depth distribution of (137)Cs radionuclides in cultivated anthrosol soil of a 15-year old peach tree plantation at the experimental field "Radmilovac" near Belgrade. Before planting, the soil was ploughed at the depth of 1 m. The soil had not been annually ploughed, irrigated and treated with mineral fertilizers for three years before sampling. Activity concen...
