The Occurrence of more than 400 landslides in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province shows a special sensitivity against erosion in this terrain. To investgate the role of the soil physical, chemical and mineral properties on the occurrence of the landslides in Afsar-Abad, Do ab Samsami in the west of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, were drilled six boreholes in sliding boundary and safe restrictio...

This study was conducted to compare the impact of various organic amendments with different C/N ratios and chemical compositions on biological and chemical degradation of Atrazine in sterile and non-sterile soils. The experiment was carried out in a factorial arrangement (2×6×2) including two soil types (sterile and non sterile soils), six types of organic amendments (vermicompost, cow manure, ...

fluorescence chemical sensors for the highly sensitive and selective determination of pb2+ , hg2+, co2+ and fe3+ ions in aqueous solutions are described. the ion sensing system was prepared by incorporating lipophilic ligand (l) as a neutral ion-selective fluoroionophore in the plasticized pvc membrane containing sodium tetraphenylborate or potasium tetrakis (p-chlorophenyl) borate as a liphoph...

The importance of decreasing the cost of soil structures due to the budget constraints makes engineers avoid handling large volumes of soil, thus making maximum use of local materials. Soil performance change in order to improve engineering applications of soil is called soil stabilization. Soil stabilization methods can be mechanical, electrical, thermal, chemical, etc. Gypsiferous soil includ...

Biological indicators are considered soil quality elements, due to their dependence on soil organisms. In order to investigate The effect of compost and vermicompost enriched by chemical fertilizers and manure on soil organic carbon, microbial respiration, and enzymes activity in basil plant's rhizosphere, a field experiment was conducted as a split-plot design with randomized complete blocks a...
