Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSoil Degradation Risk Prediction Integrating RUSLE with Geo-information Techniques, the Case of Northern Shaanxi Province in ChinaMushtak T. Jabbar, Xiaoling ChenThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with RS, GIS and GPS techniques to quantify soil erosion risk and the northern part of Shaanxi province in China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. The rating values served as inputs into a modified Revised … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Ethanol and Methyl Groups on the Degradation of Xylenes in SoilIrajá Nascimento, Ricardo Baldasso, Kira ManfrediniThe main objective of the present study was to assess the influence of ethanol on the evaporation profile of xylenes (ortho + meta and para isomers) in active (with microorganisms) and inert (without microorganisms) soils. The vapors from four sealed flasks containing inert soil + neat xylenes, active soil + neat xylenes, inert soil + xylenes + ethanol and active … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 25 Jul 2015 · 6,622 accessesView PDFCite

The aim of the work was to identify areas with signs of disturbance and to analyse the factors determining degradation processes. It was established … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2026 · 848 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDynamics of Mobile Phosphorus and Potassium in the Soils of Agricultural Lands of Kostanay RegionAlmabek Nugmanov, Aliya Yskak, Tatiana Paramonova et al.Soil phosphorus deficiency is a growing constraint on crop productivity in the agricultural lands of the Kostanay Region, Republic of Kazakhstan, yet systematic data on the spatial dynamics of mobile phosphorus and potassium across soil types remain limited. This study assessed the availability of mobile forms of phosphorus and potassium, alongside key physicochemical properties, including soil pH and cation exchange … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of Agritechnologies on the Biomass and Nutritional Parameters of Crops: A Study of Corn, Soybean, and Pea in Southeast KazakhstanGulvira Yessenbayeva, Aruzhan Ilyas, Serik Kenenbayev et al.The study investigates the impact of various agritechnologies on the biomass and nutritional parameters of corn, soybean, and winter pea cultivated in Southeast Kazakhstan. This research is particularly relevant given the significant challenges facing agriculture in Kazakhstan, including soil degradation, reduced arable land, and the need for sustainable farming practices. Organic and traditional farming methods were evaluated for their effectiveness … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLand Degradation and Preventive Measures From the Perspective of the StakeholdersMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Nik Muhamad Majid, J. ShamshuddinLand degradation at the catchment scale in Iran is widespread, usually assumed to be accelerated by the activities of local inhabitants. Social issues such as low income, poverty and low level of welfare and education contribute to land degradation. A study was conducted to identify the causes of land degradation in Merek catchment, Iran and to propose appropriate measures to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 8,367 accessesView PDFCite
