water is a unique natural resource among all sources available on earth. it plays an important role in economic development and the general well-being of the country. this study aimed at using the application of water quality index in evaluating the ground water quality innorth-east area of jaipur in pre and post monsoon for public usage. total eleven physico–chemical characteristics; total dis...

This work aimed to evaluate the physiological behavior and growth of jurema-preta seedlings under salinity conditions. The experiment was conducted at Forestry Nursery Academic Unit Engineering/UFCG, with plants kept in 'Leonard' pots. treatments were distributed a completely randomized design, five levels electrical conductivity (EC) nutrient solution (0.5; 2.0; 3.5; 5.0 6.5 dS m-1) four repet...

The anionic conductance across toad (Bufo viridis) skin was studied using the voltage-clamp technique following long-term (more than 10 days) acclimation to NaCl and KCl solutions. The non-specific baseline conductance was approximately 0.6 mS cm(-)(2) and was similar in skins from all acclimation conditions. The voltage-activated Cl(-) conductance (G(Cl)) was maximal in skins from distilled-wa...

The deviation of specific electrical conductance (EC) from conservative mixing behavior is well-established in the scientific literature. This principle based on observation that, as salt concentration a water sample increases, mobility individual ions decreases, and thus their ability to conduct electricity decreases. Despite this fact, some commonly used models for salinity transport San Fran...

The most common method for in situ assessment of soil salinity, namely the electrical conductivity (EC) of the soil solution (ECw), is to measure the apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) and volumetric water content (θ) of the soil and apply measured or predicted ECa(ECw, θ) calibration curves. The water content and electrical conductivity of a soil solution are indeed the major factors affec...
