Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHydrophysical Properties of Soils as Indicators of the Hydrological Role of Rudny Altai ForestsAndrey Kalachev, Tamara Burenina, Stanislav Rogovsky et al.The hydrophysical properties of soils and parent rock are key factors shaping forest hydrological functioning, as they influence multiple runoff components. This study assessed the effects of forest stand composition on soil moisture and water permeability between 2021 and 2023 in the middle mountain-taiga zone of the Rudny Altai, within the Zhuravlikha River basin, a tributary of the Irtysh River. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2026 · 1,322 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEmploying Electromagnetic Induction Technique for the Assessment of Soil CompactionKhalid A. Al-GaadiAn experiment on a sandy soil field was conducted to investigate the potential of determining soil compaction from apparent soil Electrical Conductivity (ECa) measured by Electromagnetic Induction (EMI) technique. A soil conductivity meter (EM38) was used to measure ECa under four soil Moisture Contents (MC) (4.965.336.94 and 8.0%) and a range of Soil Compaction (SC) levels (on the average, from … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 7 Nov 2012 · 8,259 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSeasonal Variation of Soil Resistivity and Soil Temperature in Bayelsa StateJohn Tarilanyo Afa, C. M. AnaeleProblem statement: Due to the climatic variation for the year and it's sever harmattan during the month of December to March with the high keraunic level (80-90) in the areas, it was necessary to know the seasonal variation of soil resistivity. The seasonal variation and the nature of soil have considerable influence on electrical characteristics and therefore affect the earthling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 5 Nov 2010 · 8,730 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCOMPARING GIBBS ENERGY RELATIONSHIPS FOR AMMONIA VOLATILIZATIONS FROM AGRICULTURAL SOILS FOR POTATO PRODUCTIONGuodong Liu, Yuncong Li, Ashok AlvaSoil drought, that can be enhanced by global warming increases ammonia (NH3) volatilization. This laboratory study was conducted with two soils: Krome Gravelly Loam (KGL) from Florida and Warden Silt Loam (WSL) from Washington State and two fertilizers: Ammonium sulfate [(NH4)2SO4] or ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). Two water regimes including 20 and 80% Field Capacity (FC) were used at 20°C which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2014 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSequential Remediation Processes for Effective Removal of Oil from Contaminated SoilsDeepika Dave, Reema Alharathi, Abdel GhalyProblem statement: Over 2.2 billions of oil and oil products were transported every year and often these activities can result in air, water and soil contamination. Expousure to petroleum products can cause health problems to humn and animals and affect marine animals and wildlife habitats. Approach: The objective of this study was to developed a technology for the remediation of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 18 Nov 2011 · 8,185 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSimplified Procedure for Unsaturated Flow ParametersNatthawit Jitrapinate, Vichai Sriboonlue, Kriengsak Srisuk, Dolrerdee HormdeeProblem statement: The unsaturated hydraulic conductivity K(θ) and Soil Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) for saline soil or soil directly contacted with saline water are not permitted using several apparatus to determining. Approach: A simplified method to determine K(θ) and SWCC by using simple apparatus is presented. Using the proposed numerical model with the van Genuchten equations and inverse calculation for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Tillage Methods on Soil Fragmentation in Loamy-Clay SoilsYousef Abbaspour-Gilandeh, Vali Rasooli Sharabiani, Ahmad KhalilianProblem statement: Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in tillage in order to create a favorable soil environment for crop growth. Soil fragmentation is defined as the process of breakdown and crumbling of soil aggregates. Currently, there is no published research data on optimum tillage operations for seedbed preparation in loamy-clay soils of western Caspian Sea region of Iran.
