Detection of the effects of management and physical factors on forest soil carbon stock variability in semiarid conditions using parametric and nonparametric methods
soil organic carbon CART modelling, neural networks
2015/11/26
Forest soils in western parts of Iran are being degraded by inappropriate management. The soil organic carbon (SOC) stock was dominantly affected by this type of degradation. On the other hand, SOC is...
Combined use of SAR and optical data for environmental assessments around refugee camps in semiarid landscapes
SAR refugee camps landscape capacity
2015/5/7
Over 15 million people were officially considered as refugees in the year 2012 and another 28 million as internally displaced people (IDPs). Natural disasters, climatic and environmental changes, vi...
Variation in nitrogen economy of two Stipa species in the semiarid region of northern China
Habitat preference Mean residence time Nitrogen-use efficiency Nitrogen productivity Plant strategies
2015/2/5
How effectively plants utilize nitrogen (N), the most limiting nutrient in natural ecosystems, will largely determine the success of plants in intra- and inter-specific competition. Theory suggests th...
Grassland fire effect on soil organic carbon reservoirs in a semiarid environment
effect on soil organic carbon emiarid environment
2015/1/5
The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of an experimental fire used for grassland management
on soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks. The study was carried
out on Hyparrhenia hirta (L....

Cropping frequency and N fertilizer effects on soil water distribution from spring to fall in the semiarid Canadian prairies
Fallow Frequency Water Use Plant Biomass Spring Wheat Soil Water
2013/3/4
In the semiarid Canadian prairies, water is the most limiting and nitrogen (N) the second most limiting factor influencing spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. The efficiency of water-and n...

2013/3/6
This study states the potential trace elements (TE’s) content of red soils located at the centre region of Spain, characterized by low rainfall and slight acidity over prolonged weathering periods. Fo...
Physico-chemical characteristics and clay mineralogy composition of selected soils in arid and semiarid regions of Iran
Physico-chemical characteristics clay mineralogy composition Iran
2011/11/10
Knowledge of soil types and their properties is highly important in determining constraints and potential as well as better utilization of soils. Clay minerals are important fractions of the soil soli...
Effect of Cultivation on Some Soil Attributes of a Long-term Pastoral Land in the Semiarid Tropics of Sudan
Management degradation grazing and soil properties
2010/11/15
Cultivation may have various effects on soil properties and could therefore be a useful guide
of soil quality indices. This study was conducted to determine the effects of more than 20 years cultivat...
