Tree species composition was important for carbon storage within the same climate range. To quantify the dynamics of ecosystem carbon allocation as affected by different tree species, we measured the above- and below-ground biomass accumulation in 22 years, as well as the tissue carbon concentrations of trees in Cunninghamia lanceolata plantation and Michelia macclurei plantation. Results indic...

study of soil and plant relationships is nessesery for ecological- based and appropriate management. the objective of this study is to determine the influence of edaphic properties on haloxylon persicum growth and also, indentifing growth limiting soil properties for saxaul. the study was performed through the stratified random sampling and 3 sites were selected as follow: planted strong saxaul...

today, environmental crisis and loss of natural resources are the principle causes of the creation of environmental management systems. the optimal management of natural resources requires the assessment and classification of ecological and environmental potentials. using this method, the abilities and restrictions of resources can be recognized, and their future trends can be predicted. nebka ...

soil is known as a suitable reservoir for carbon sequestration. the objective of this study was to investigate the capability of haloxylon on sequestration of carbon in sand dunes of yahya abad, sabzevar, in northeastern iran. eighty soil samples were taken from two depths of 0-5 and 5-10 cm under and between haloxylon trees. eight soil profiles under and between haloxylon trees were described ...

Haloxylon ammodendron (C.A.Mey) Bunge is one of the important species arid desert vegetation in China, and it also an ideal material for studying plant stress resistance, which plays extremely role protecting ecosystems preventing land desertification. However, there are relatively few studies on regeneration fusiform, genetic transformation system has not been successfully reported, restricts ...

Archaeologists working on plantation sites have typically ignored the role that violence played in the lives of enslaved African-Americans. By drawing together examples from archaeological publications in which violence has been mentioned, the commentary illustrates not only both the types and scale of violence endured by African-Americans, but also how archaeologists have effectively sanitized...

Increasing urbanisation and industrialisation have led to a dramatic reduction in forest area, and now only culturally protected remnants of natural forests and some new plantations remain in most areas of the north of Iran. To investigate the status of the chemical and physical characteristics of soil under these remnant forests and assess the possible impacts of reforestation on soil properti...
