the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tillage methods to obtain suitable seedbed for monogerm seed. therefore, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replicatians was conducted at darab station of fars province. the main plot was seedbed prepration at two levels including fall and spring season. subplot included 1) moldboard plow a...

Sediment Bypass Tunnels (SBTs) are deviant channels that convey the current containing sediments from the upstream of the reservoir to the downstream of the dam. In this research, by applying submerged plates on the entrance of a 90-degree diversion channel for sediment transport, the effect of hydraulic parameters of flow and changes in the angle of plates on sediment transport and deviated fl...

in order to assess the adaptation of elaeagnus angustifolia l. and fraxinus rotundifolia mill afforestation around tabriz international airport, the qualitative and quantitative characteristics of trees were measured in 96 experimental circular plots with a size of 300 m2. to study the edaphic effects of these species, nine samples were randomly collected from 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm depth of soil...

in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

The effect of a surface open to air on the ensiling process was investigated in 15 × 60 cm PVC silos in four trials, three with alfalfa (30, 41, and 49% dry matter, DM) and one with whole-plant corn (35% DM). Silos were sampled 1, 2, 5, 7, 14, and 28 d post-filling at 5, 20, 35, and 50 cm from the open surface. At 5 cm, little fermentation occurred as oxygen contents were at 10% or higher, and ...

Estimation of carbon contents and stocks are important for carbon sequestration, greenhouse gas emissions and national carbon balance inventories. For Denmark, we modeled the vertical distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) and bulk density, and mapped its spatial distribution at five standard soil depth intervals (0-5, 5-15, 15-30, 30-60 and 60-100 cm) using 18 environmental variables as pre...

introduction in dry areas, water is the limiting factor in improving agricultural production. saving the annual precipitation in the soil is very effective in dryland farming. the amount of rainfall that infiltrates the soil depends on the amount of soil permeability and runoff. the surface remains will be able to better permeable prevent runoff and raindrops and reduce erosion. in addition, ev...

Nano-porous silicon were simply prepared from p-type single crystalline silicon wafer by electrochemical etching technique via exerting constant current density in two different HF-Ethanol and HF-Ethanol-H2O solutions. The mesoporous silicon layers were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results demonstrate that the width of nano-p...
