to study the effects of scale and tillage management on variability of soil properties in adjacent lands of different tillage type, soil sampling was performed linearly along contour line from the middle position of slope with 5 m intervals. in overall, 45 soil samples were collected from a field with conventional up-down tillage and 40 samples from an adjacent filed with contour tillage. soil ...

in this study, the ability of generalized additive model (gam) for mapping potential distribution of ferula ovina boiss, and the description of species response curves to environmental variables were examined in fereidonshar region with area of 1000 square kilometers located in west of isfahan province. the presence and absence data of the species were collected from 278 sites (including 138 pr...

In order to evaluate the dynamics of carbon storage during forest succession and explore the significance of water relations and soil stability in forest environments, a study was conducted in 2011. This study investigated the dynamics of soil organic carbon (SOC) fractions and its protection through aggregation along the successional forests. An experiment in South China examined pine forest (...

Monthly visits to 2 field sites in southern Mississippi were made to determine the influence of monitor examination on feeding site affinity by southeastern native subterranean termites (Reticulitermes spp.). Wooden board monitors were examined once every 30, 60, or 90 days. Presence of live termites and damage to the boards (both binary parameters) were collected for each plot examined over a ...

the present study aimed at estimating the amount of carbon storage and its relationship with other physical and chemical soil properties in four land-use systems including intact, protected, exploited and garden-uses areas in the northern zagros region in west azarbaijan province, iran. thirty sample plots were identified and within each plot, soil samples were taken in each land use and each s...
