Evaluation and mapping of soil salienty hazard in ramhormorz area (khozestan)using disjunctive kriging

SOIL SPECTRAL PROPERTIES OF ARID REGION, KASHAN AREA, IRAN

This study determined some spectral characteristics and relationship between Landsat spectral reflectance and soil surface color in the arid region of Iran (Kashan). The study carried out in the kashan area that covers 90000 ha. Consisting of mountain, hills and flood plain. Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM+) data collected on July 2002 were used for this research. The color composite images produ...

A Comparative Study of Interpolation Methods for Mapping Soil Properties

and Salas (1985) compared kriging with several other interpolation techniques, including inverse distance, for The choice of an optimal interpolation technique for estimating annual precipitation distributions and found kriging to soil properties at unsampled locations is an important issue in sitebe superior to inverse distance weighting. Warrick et specific management. The objective of this s...

Tea yield and soil properties as affected by slope position and aspect in Lahijan area, Iran

Soil genesis, physico-chemical properties and tea yield were investigated along different hillslope positions in the major tea cultivation area of Iran, i.e. Lahijan, Gilan Province. Land suitability was also determined for the tea production in this hilly region. Four different slope positions i.e., summit, shoulder, backslope and toeslope were sampled on three slope aspects following the prof...

Mapping spatial variability of soil salinity in a coastal area located in an arid environment using geostatistical and correlation methods based on the satellite data

Saline lakes can increase the soil and water salinity of the coastal areas. The main aim of this study is to distinguish the characteristics of the spectral reflectance of saline soil, analyze the statistical relationship between soil EC and characteristics of the spectral reflectance of saline soil, and to map soil salinity east of the Maharloo Lake. The correlation between field measurements ...
