A comparative study of ecological and biological parameters soils the Rostov-on-Don Zoo was carried out in 2017-2020. Monitoring sites were studied areas various purpose: aviaries with different animals, recreation area, park area. The control plot a relatively undisturbed section territory zoo. Different revealed heterogeneity conditions soil properties. most significant difference physical pr...

In this research, an ancient Iranian ceramic technology, which was published previously for the first time, has been used to produce various colored ceramic glazes.  The color of such ancient glazes was always blue and the suitable body for that is unique due to high quartz content. There is no report of other color productions in productive workshop and scientific publications. The basic purp...

a territorial isolation is a danger to the game population, causing deterioration called the inbreeding depression. the typical signs are anomalous body proportions, such as short lower jaw, shortened lifetime, weak physique and lower birth rate. this is caused by low number of game in the community. white colored deer is in the location of the czechrepublicbred in separation since 18th century...

The genotypic variation on physico-chemical characteristics of wild grown plums (Prunus spinosa L.) was investigated. The total phenolic contents were in a range of 117 to 407 mg GAE/100 g FW. The vitamin C was highest in yellow colored fruits (12.10 mg/100 ml). The total soluble solid content varied between 9.40% (yellow colored) and 12.90% (dark purple colored) fruits.  Antioxidant activity o...

Selenium (Se) exhibits a “double-edged” behavior in animal and human nutrition. It is a micronutrient required in low concentrations by animals and humans, but toxic at high concentrations. Selenium deficiency has been associated with cancer and other health problems. Selenium requirements are commonly met through soils and plants such as wheat, rice, vegetables and maize in many countries. Sel...

" Human beings are all interlocked with plants, animals, soils and waters, in one humming community of cooperation and competition: one biota. They are related and bound into a seemless fabric " (Aldo Leopold, 1949).

Concepts and developments for a new field in ecotoxicology, referred to as "landscape ecotoxicology," were proposed in the 1990s; however, to date, few studies have been developed in this emergent field. In fact, there is a strong interest in developing this area, both for renewing the concepts and tools used in ecotoxicology as well as for responding to practical issues, such as risk assessmen...

The adoption of flowable mixtures treated soils is suggested as a sustainable solution for repairing the damage caused by burrowing animals in Po River embankments. Soil from damaged sites proposed to be mixed with lime or cement, other additives, and water order obtain an adequate compromise between viscosity—which crucial flowing mixture into hole site machines—and shrinkage that might occur ...

Desert-like areas located in the eastern portion of state Utah (USA) have geographic features that can resemble surface planet Mars, characterized by red-colored hills, soils and sandstones. We examined bacterial biodiversity soil samples from several sites Colorado Plateau Desert using pyrosequencing PCR amplified 16S rRNA genes total extracted DNA. The sample cover Great Basin, Goblin Valley ...
