plant life and food production for human closely depend on fertile and healthy soil. knowledge about qualitative properties of soil and its potential production can contribute us in the plantation, fertilization, utilization and land management. in addition, rangelands cover a very large portion of the earth's surface and play an important role in food security and other ecosystem services. the...

Drought is a natural disaster. Because a significant impact on the agricultural and economy sector, it affects the lives of local residents. With Using of the remote sensing, drought can be studied through its effects on plants and agriculture resulting in more accurate and effective results found for modeling drought. In this study, the efficiency of agricultural drought indicators for estimat...

clinical and laboratory findings of 24 patients with kala-azar are presented here from our survey. kala-azar is such more prevalent than the number of diagnosed cases might suggest and most of them die because of the lack of medical care available locally. malnutrition, poor hygiene and lack of education are important factors in the high mortality rate from this infection.

Abstract This essay aims to investigate the function of urban space in Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye through approach proposed by cultural geographers, such as Edward Soja, David Harvey, and Don Mitchell, who link with questions justice/injustice. At same time, considers some valuable insights Black Geographies scholars like George Lipsitz, argues that an analysis relations between power place...

Identification of refugia is an increasingly important adaptation strategy in conservation planning under rapid anthropogenic climate change. Granite outcrops (GOs) provide extraordinary diversity, including a wide range of taxa, vegetation types and habitats in the Southwest Australian Floristic Region (SWAFR). However, poor characterization of GOs limits the capacity of conservation planning ...

To enhance the vegetation signal in remotely sensed data and provide an approximate measure of live green vegetation, a number of spectral vegetation indices have been developed to estimate biophysical parameters of vegetation. The sensitivity of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to the soil background and atmospheric effects has generated an increasing interest in the developme...

Google Earth provides a freely available, global mosaic of high-resolution imagery from different sensors that has become popular in environmental and ecological studies. However, such imagery lacks the near-infrared band often used in studying vegetation, thus its potential for estimating vegetation properties remains unclear. In this study, we assess the potential of Google Earth imagery to d...
