In arid and semiarid areas, the effects of afforestation on soil organic carbon (SOC) have received considerable attention. In these areas, in fact, soil inorganic carbon (SIC), rather than SOC, is the dominant form of carbon, with a reservoir approximately 2-10 times larger than that of SOC. A subtle fluctuation of SIC pool can strongly alter the regional carbon budget. However, few studies ha...

Basin territorial structures are defined as unified natural and anthropogenic systems, since the movement of matter, energy information occurs naturally from divide to valley line river within them. Considering global issues soil degradation in watersheds depletion water resources, some regional experience design implementation protection cultivated lands part concept basin nature management pr...

The re-establishment of autochthonous shrub species is an essential strategy for recovering degraded soils under semiarid Mediterranean conditions. A field assay was carried out to determine the combined effects of the inoculation with native rhizobacteria (Bacillus megaterium, Enterobacter sp, Bacillus thuringiensis and Bacillus sp) and the addition of composted sugar beet (SB) residue on phys...

Timber harvesting guidelines formulated for north Queensland rainforests allowed economically viable harvests with minimal ecological impact. Harvesting procedures sought to minimize soil erosion, silting and turbidity in steams, destruction of trees in the residual stand, and disruption of natural habitats and processes. Forest officers selected the trees to be harvested, indicated the directi...
