Forests are an important economic source for human and have key role in nutrient cycle, hydrology and ecosystem performance, any interference in this vital ecosystem causes to damage to forests. Mechanical logging and road construction in forest areas have led to much soil compaction. Soil physical and chemical properties were studied in parts of road and non-road in the Darabkola forest of Ira...

in order to prevent contamination of heavy metals accumlation in soil, plant, and ground water, several methods of prevention are studied, and tested worldwide. one of the method which has not been studied and applied in iran is stabilization of heavy metals in soil by using clay minerals. clay minerals due to hydration properties can adsorb organic and inorganic substances. two clay minerals w...

the control of biological, hydrological and geochemical cycles of soil is the key part of the earth system. the objective of this research was to evaluate changes in soil chemical properties due to deforestation occurred in the gazafolya village, merek watershed, kermanshah province, iran. toward this attempt, 35 soil samples were collected from top soil layer using auger in early june, 2013. s...

In order to evaluate the influence of ionic liquid 1butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl) on the soil micro-ecological system, the toxicity of [Bmim]Cl to soil microorganisms and its impact on soil physico-chemical properties were investigated. Three soil samples, which were taken from the rape land, nursery land and the broad bean land respectively, were used for this study. The toxici...

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...
