Salinization of soil is primarily caused by capillary rise from saline shallow groundwater orapplication of saline irrigation water. In this investigation, the transient state analytical modelwas modified to predict water uptake from saline shallow groundwater, actual cropevapotranspiration, soil water content, dry matter, seed yield and soil salinity under differentsaline groundwater depths, i...

BACKGROUND Management regimes for vegetation restoration of degraded grasslands can significantly affect the process of ecological succession. However, few studies have focused on variation in the soil seed bank during vegetation restoration under different management regimes, especially in saline-alkaline grassland habitats. Our aim was to provide insights into the ecological effects of grassl...

Abstract Soil, is a reclamable and sustainable source. it is the basis of survival and it’s implication, should be performed on the basis of productivity identification according to scientific and technical rules, we can protect this valuable source, and increase it’s productivity and usage. Nowdays, saline soils cover nearly 14.6% of the country area. Study areas (Kashan’ playa) have saline ...

Land salinization is threatened with secondary salinization recently because of unreasonable exploitation of natural resources and global change. However, previous assessments cannot obtain comprehensive and spatial explicit statistics and impede to develop ecologically sound policies for government. This study tries to confront these difficulties and identify key anthropogenic determinants, th...
