Municipal biosolids and agricultural limestone were incorporated into the surface of alluvial highly acidic, metal-contaminated mine tailings in Leadville, CO, in 1998. Amended sites were seeded and a plant cover was subsequently established. A range of chemical and biological parameters were measured over time to determine if treatment was sufficient to restore ecosystem function. An uncontami...

Irrigation-induced salinization is an important land degradation process that affects crop yield in the Brazilian semi-arid region, and gypsum has been used as a corrective measure for saline soils. Fluvent soil samples (180) were treated with increasing levels of salinization of NaCl, MgCl2 and CaCl2. The salinity was gauged using electrical conductivity (EC). Gypsum was added to one split of ...

Soil is normally heterogeneous and non-uniform material since it made up of diverse types matter. Understanding soil parameters one the foremost complex assignments in geotechnical design. A few laboratory tests need to carry out for engineering practices. Research facility take too much time achieve are excessive moreover. There's another elective way urge direct from field investigation repor...

This study investigated the amendment of sugarcane bagasse biochar (SCBB) on soil fertility, crop yield, and nutrient loss in two different-textured soils under (Saccharum spp.) production. Eleven megagrams per hectare freshly incorporated increased yield plant cane by 22% light-texture (LS) 12% heavy-textured (HS). Although overall ratoon was lower, treatment produced 20 14% higher yields than...
