Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanism of Garden Aquatic Plants in the Remediation of Heavy Metal-Contaminated SoilChen Chen, Guangwu LiuHeavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury are resistant to microbial degradation in soil and persist for extended periods. They can bioaccumulate through the food chain, ultimately impacting human health. This study demonstrates that a combined restoration approach involving soil enhancement and garden aquatic plants, specifically through the application of ferrous sulfate, results in increased dry weight and plant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Apr 2026 · 1,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Soil Loss Using GIS and RUSLE Model in Bakiya River Basin (BRB), Central NepalSujan Bista, Naresh Kazi Tamrakar, Kishor Rimal, Arju BhattaraiSoil erosion is the major geological hazard in the fragile landscape of Sub-Himalaya. This study examines the susceptibility of the Bakiya River Basin (BRB) in Central Nepal to soil erosion because of its steep topography, fragile geology, the impact of intense monsoon rainfall, and the lack of a direct monitoring mechanism available for rainfall-runoff. This study examines the spatial variations … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2025 · 3,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffectiveness of the Use of Ash and Slag Fertilizer on Ordinary Chernozem for Linum usitatissimum CropsGulmira Kyzdarbekova, Abilzhan Khussainov, Baurzhan Yessenzholov et al.Degradation, reduction of soil fertility, and accumulation of industrial waste is both global and national environmental problem. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and environmental safety of the use of fertilizers made from ash and slag on ordinary chernozem for common flax (Linum usitatissimum) crops. The laboratory experiments were conducted in the environmental protection laboratory. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 11 May 2023 · 5,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of the Effects of Soil Salinity on the Growth and Development of Maize (Zea Mays L.) by using Sentinel-2 ImageryShakhislam Uzakbaevich Laiskhanov, Zhassulan Maratuly Smanov, Kulyash Duisenbaevna Kaimuldinova et al.Salinization of soil cover and the constant increase in their area have become one of the most pressing problems year after year for irrigated agriculture regions. The degradation processes caused by the salinity of soils negatively affect the growth and development of food crops. Therefore, this study focused on the effects of soil salinity in the midstream of the Syrdarya … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2022 · 6,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing of Soil Compaction and Relations to Soil Fertility on Different Land Used in Bintulu, SarawakAizul Azfar Zulkeefli, Md. Suzauddula, Md. Rezaul Karim et al.Assessing land uses-induced changes in soil properties from natural forests to farmland are indispensable for addressing the complications in terms of agricultural landscape sustainability. A study was conducted in Rehabilitated Forest (RF), Oil Palm (OP), Secondary Forest (SF) and Rubber Plantation (RP) at University Putra Malaysia in order to examine the results of soil densification on soil characteristics and fertility … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2021 · 7,428 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Organic Carbon Stock under Different Age Ranges of Cashew Agroecosystems in the Sudano-Sahelian Zone of CameroonAwé Djongmo Victor, Noiha Noumi Valery, Zapfack LouisThe aim of this study was to quantify the current soil organic carbon stock under different age ranges of cashew agroecosystems in the Sudano-Sahelian zone of Cameroon in the context of greenhouse gas emissions and land degradation. It is so crucial for combating climate change and improving ecological restoration. Random field sampling was carried out on 0-10, 10-20 and 20-30 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2020 · 6,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction and Characterization of Hydrocarbon Degrading Peroxidase from Rhizopus and Saccharomyces SpeciesFerdinand U. Paschaline, Onyeocha O. Ignatius, Ezeji E. Uchechukwu et al.The production, characterization and partial purification of hydrocarbon degrading peroxidase from di-culture of Rhizopus and Saccharomyces species was assessed. The fungi were isolated from hydrocarbon polluted soil and identified using standard microbiological and biochemical techniques. Fermentation was carried out for enzyme production and the extracellular extract was precipitated with 50% ammonium sulphate salts and further purified by gel filtrationusing sephadex … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2019 · 7,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Analysis Using Numerical and Neural Network, Near Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, IndiaVinay Kumar Singh, Tariq Anwar Ansari, Vikram Vishal, T.N. SinghThe major concern in hilly regions is the stability of those slopes, which have been proclaimed due to unplanned excavation and uneven blasting during road widening and development activity. These slopes again become more vulnerable under dynamic loading and/or various types of human involvement, heavy rainfall and seismic activity. Failure of these slopes leads to loss of property and human … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Keratinolytic Activity Succeeds by Keratinophilic Fungi in Jaipur, IndiaVishnu Sharma, Anima Sharma, Ruchi SethEarth has innate background for fungi that cover individual kingdom since evolution. The keratinophilic fungi are allied moulds that produce the keratinase enzyme to degrade the keratinous materials in or on the soil. Keratinous materials are insoluble and resistant to degradation by common proteinase enzymes. It is important to study the microorganism producers of such enzymes for use in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,563 accessesView PDFCite
