Drought monitoring characteristics are important for better understanding of the drought phases in mitigation planning. Various satellite-based drought indices and systems have been developed and applied at both the regional and global scales. Recently the remotely sensed agricultural stress index system (ASIS) based on imagery from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR-NOAA) and Meteorological Operational Satellite (METOP) by the Global Information and Early Warning System (GIEWS) of FAO developed. It shows considerable potential for drought monitoring at the global scale. Vegetation Health Index (VHI), start and end of the crop season (SOS-EOS) are the main inputs of ASI S. While the GIEWS models use the METOP-AVHRR images (1984 at present), in this study, an attempt has been made to retrieve key ASI inputs from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) to evaluate the ability of the MODIS ASIS for characterizing agricultural drought severity and explore the impacts of drought on crop production during growing season. Comparing national and sub-national wheat and barley yields with the ASIS drought maps, demonstrated that the proposed approach could identify major historical droughts over the observed period (2002-2015) in Iran. We detected that the extreme severe drought occurred during the year 2007-2008 crop season, affecting approximately 64% of crop land.","PeriodicalId":11118,"journal":{"name":"Desert","volume":"26 1","pages":"29-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43286922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study was to investigate the contamination of soil and wheat plants with Ni, Cd, and Pb in the alluvial plain of Tigris River in southern Baghdad. A total of hundred surface soil samples (0-30 cm) and aerial parts of the wheat plant were taken in an area of ~100 km2 at an interval distance of 1000 meters. Heavy metals in air-dried soil samples and plant were extracted by the aqua regia solution and wet digestion method, respectively. The mean concentration of Cd in soil and wheat plant was 0.4 and 1.1 mg kg-1, respectively. The amount of plant-Cd was higher than the allowable standards of FAO and WHO. Mean Pb concentration in the soil of the study area was 14.5 mg kg-1. The concentration of Pb in the plant was less than the detection limit of the device. The mean concentration of Ni in the soil and plant was 214 and 17 mg kg-1, respectively, which was more than the allowable standards of FAO and WHO. The source of Ni is fine sediments transferred from eroded ultramafic rocks in the upper part of the river. A positive correlation between Pb and Cd in the soil indicates a similar origin. They were added to the soil by agricultural activities and vehicles. The results showed that the studied soils are at the beginning of the contamination with Cd and Pb, which needs to be considered to prevent more contamination.","PeriodicalId":11118,"journal":{"name":"Desert","volume":"26 1","pages":"127-138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41469379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emission of dust in a scattered and especially heterogeneous manner has made it difficult to determine the exact effect, so modeling is one of the best possible ways to quantify dust emission. Moreover, to deal with this phenomenon, it is necessary to identify the main and influential factors and, by combining these factors, we can predict dust storms using models. The purpose of this study is to model the distribution and emission of dust in two stormy days on the 26th and 27th of January 2017 in the arid and the hyper-arid region of Mahshahr. For this purpose, coding of each meteorological parameter (section 2.2), dust input concentration parameters, and in MATLAB R2014 software have been made. Also, dust input concentration maps were prepared for the two stormy days in the study area in ARCGIS 9.3 software. Finally, the results were evaluated with WRF model outputs. The efficiency of the developed model was also evaluated based on the hourly data of the dust input concentration for two stormy days in the study area. The evaluation of the model shows the ability of this model to modeling the dust distribution in the study area with high intensity of dust emitted and high accuracy. The R correlation index for the period under study was 0.84, which indicates the high accuracy of the model.","PeriodicalId":11118,"journal":{"name":"Desert","volume":"26 1","pages":"115-125"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48407313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mycorrhizal fungi application is one of the ways to reduce the undesirable effect of salt stress on plants. An experiment was conducted in 2017 to assess the effect of salt stress on Nitraria schuberi, as a native Iranian plant in arid regions, inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi. Seedlings of this plant were treated under three different levels of NaCl in three stages. The stages including low salt concentrations (0, 20, 60, and 100 mM NaCl), medium salt concentrations (0, 40, 120, and 200 mM NaCl) and high salt concentrations (0, 80, 240, and 400 mM NaCl). Mycorrhizal treatment including two levels: non-inoculated (control) and mycorrhizal inoculated. Experimental designs were factorials (4×2 treatments) based on the completely randomized design with four replications. In this study, the content of chlorophyll, carotenoid, sugar, proline and Na, Mg, K, Fe and Ca were measured. The results indicated that with increasing salinity levels from the first (low) to third (high) stage, chlorophyll content was decreased while carotenoid, proline, and sugar were increased. The application of NaCl salinity led to a reduction in Fe and enhancement in Na. In the mycorrhizal plants, sugar content decreased but magnesium, calcium and potassium levels increased. Based on these findings it seems that Nitraria schuberi is a salt tolerant plant and mycorrhizal fungi can mitigate salinity stress in this plant. Therefore this plant could be applied in the urban landscape of arid and semi-arid regions.","PeriodicalId":11118,"journal":{"name":"Desert","volume":"26 1","pages":"16-27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48897231","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Seeds of commercial cultivar and native species of Festuca arundinacea were sown in a sandy loam texture soil and four mulch treatments including vermicompost, leaf compost, cow manure and sand as control, were applied to cover the seeds. The result showed that the native species had greener color and narrower leaves compared to the commercial cultivar but its other NTEP (National Turfgrass Evaluation Program) traits including density, uniformity, establishment, softness of grass surface, quality after clipping, and total quality was lower than that in the commercial cultivar. Using vermicompost as the planting mulch (top dressing or cover mulch at the time of planting of the turfgrass) significantly improved all of the traits in the native species. Vermicompost increased the percentage of grass coverage, clipping dry weight, and the plant height and decreased the leaf width of plants and number and percentage of weeds.

Based on standard methods, morphological, physico-chemical and mineralogical properties of these soils were determined. Soils with higher gypsum content had lighter color, lighter texture, lower values of organic carbon and cation exchange capacity and higher values of electrical conductivity. These parameters were reversely changed with decreasing gypsum content of soils.

The origin of illite, chlorite and kaolinite were related to the inheritance from parent material. Smectite group of clay minerals has been resulted from three origins of inheritance from parent material, transformation of illite and palygorskite and neoformation, but the transformation and neoformation are the main pathways for its formation. Palygorskite has pedogenic origin and has been formed via neoformation. The comparison of clay mineralogy of soils with different gypsum values revealed the presence of higher smectites in soils with higher gypsum.
