Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Response to the Application of Amendments in a Contaminated Soil with Trace ElementsA. Branzini, M. S. Zubillaga, M. M. ZubillagaProblem Statement: The anthropogenic activities can cause adverse effects in soils, increasing in some situations trace elements contents, impacting negatively both the microbial biomass and activity. Among the practices used for the recovery of soil quality we can find the application of organic amendments or the product of their composting. These can adsorb trace elements decreasing their availability and increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,177 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Mixing on the Biological Degradation of Toluene under Aerobic ConditionsAbdel E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, K. MartinellThe effectiveness of in-vessel bioremediation in reducing the concentration of toluene in contaminated soil under continuous and intermittent mixing conditions using invessel composting system. The results showed that there was a startup period (60 h) during which the average temperature rose from 21 to 32 and 40°C (and then remained constant) for the bioreactors with continuous and intermittent mixing, respectively. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,497 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling Winter Hardiness Formation in Winter Wheat PlantsDaria Blyshchyk, Anatoliy Polevoy, Pavel FeoktistovA dynamic model, which describes the growth processes, plant development and the passing of the two phases of the autumn hardening under the influence of agrometeorological conditions in autumn, was developed. The model illustrates effects of intensity of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), sunlight levels, air temperature and soil moisture on the increment of reserves of photosynthesis products and soluble carbohydrates … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 7,207 accessesView PDF Cite
