accurate knowledge of spatial distribution of soil physical and chemical properties is needed for suitable management and proper use of rangelands in masileh plain, qom, iran. in present study, for the spatial modeling of chemical and physical parameters such as sodium (na), calcium (ca), soluble potassium (k), magnesium (mg), electrical conductivity (ec), saturation percentage (sp%), silt, cla...

The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the use Ultra-fine Drift Sand from Yangtze River (China) in place natural sand production foamed concrete. experimental design included factors with varying levels: proportion at four levels (0 percent, 30%, 60%, and 100%). substituted mass material. Each factor's effect on compressive strength, density (dry saturated), air voids, water absorption ...

A survey of potential vector sand flies was conducted in the neighboring suburban communities of Vake and Mtatsminda districts in an active focus of visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) in Tbilisi, Georgia. Using light and sticky-paper traps, 1,266 male and 1,179 female sand flies were collected during 2006-2008. Five Phlebotomus species of three subgenera were collected: Phlebotomus balcanicus Theodor ...

Hydrocarbon gases were collected from well cuttings and core at the MtElbert-01 gas hydrate stratigraphic test well, drilled within the Milne Point field on the Alaska North Slope. Regionally, the Eileen gas hydrate deposits overlie the more deeply buried Prudhoe Bay, Milne Point, and Kuparuk River oil fields and are restricted to the up-dip portion of a series of nearshore deltaic sandstone re...

Coastal shorelines are a key interface between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems vital for human livelihood. As result, have experienced substantial modifications worldwide. Shoreline “hardening” – the construction of armor including seawalls, bulkheads, or rip-rap is common modification that has negative ecological effects. Currently, restoration involving removal replacement with “living” be...

Different strategies of the application of nutrients are required to overcome the adverse effects of mustard (Brassica juncea L.) in response to NaCl stress. The objective of the present study was to determine if different added levels of nitrogen (N) in growth medium could alleviate the adverse effects of salt stress on photosynthetic capacity and accumulation of osmoprotectants and nutrients....
