The quality appraisal for salty ground water was also conducted prior to its use for irrigation. Such studies are useful for planning reclamation and management of salt-affected soils and poor quality ground water. Strongly sodic soils were easily identified based on the white to yellowish white tones, high spectral and low NDVI values. Waterlogged areas (surface ponding) were detected based on higher absorption in infrared range. Sodic soils with poor quality ground water showed higher reflectance from dry salts during June and freshly precipitated moist salts in March and October. Sodic soils irrigated with normal ground water showed higher cropping density and higher NDVI values. Moderately and slightly sodic soils showed mixed spectral signatures for salt crusts, moderate cropping density and surface wetness. Soil profile studies indicated higher moisture content at sub-surface depths. The presence of iron and manganese mottles indicated the incidences of water stagnation. Soils with high pHs, ESP, and SAR values and showing the dominance of carbonate and bicarbonates of sodium in the saturation extract indicated sodic nature. Significant presence of CaCO3 concretions at 1 m depth, low organic carbon contents, clay illuviation at sub-surface depth are typical features in sodic soil profiles. Water samples with high pH and SAR values and at places high RSC (Residual Sodium Carbonate) content indicated their sodic nature. Gypsum application is recommended for the reclamation of sodic soils and sodic water.","PeriodicalId":42883,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Geoscience","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23312041.2016.1213689","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60091718","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}

Mineral weathering is one possible way. Silicate weathering, for example, causes net carbon sequestration and carbonate weathering occurs relatively rapidly. In this study, dolomite and K-feldspar were added to soil to investigate if these minerals can increase carbon sequestration and also improve the available potassium content. The carbon content of amaranth, the organic and inorganic carbon content of the soil, two kinds of enzymes (polyphenol oxidase and urease), and the available potassium content were all tested. The experimental results show that the minerals accelerate the fixation of organic and inorganic carbon in the soil and also promote amaranth growth. Moreover, the available potassium content was increased when K-feldspar was added. Taken together, adding moderate amounts of carbonate and silicate minerals into the soil is found to be an attemptable way of accelerating CO2 fixation and improving the potassium content of soil.","PeriodicalId":42883,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Geoscience","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23312041.2016.1205324","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60091707","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}

Soil depths (0–20, 20–60, 60–80, and 80–150 cm), redness ratio (RR), and redness factor (RF) were considered. Significant association was observed between K-levels (high, medium, and low) in topsoil and its color hue, and the highest cumulative frequency of 2.5YR in high and medium levels was characterizing the hill slope position (summit and upper slope). Deep horizon, foot slope, and yellowish color (7.5YR and 10YR) were more relevant to low K-level. Significant linear regressions of soil content of K were observed according to both redness indices indifferently to the topographic positions and soil depths in some extend. Of these finding in the line of folk knowledge, RR and RF are recommended for in situ measurement of soil K, and 2.5YR as color hue may be use as indicator of K-enriched soil at hill slope position.","PeriodicalId":42883,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Geoscience","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23312041.2016.1199523","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60091666","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 present work necessarily deals with the formulation of a comprehensive empirical liquefaction model (ELM) using this methodology. The absolute form of the ELM is dimensionally homogeneous and yields a correlation between proposed “liquefaction potential term” and “normalized standard penetration blow count corrected for fines content, .” The developed ELM demonstrates unbiased performance when verified over a wide range of significant parameters. One of the prominent features of the present ELM is accurate prediction of possibility of liquefaction. The proposed ELM has proven to work well on varied data-sets of more than 1000 case records within the given range of model parameters. Moreover, the dynamic response-based ELM proves its ability when compared with other liquefaction evaluation procedures. Thus, a generalized and optimistic ELM simulating realistic field conditions is formulated. It is anticipated that for accurate prediction of liquefaction occurrence, it would be more appropriate to employ the proposed ELM which will minimize the enormous losses caused due to liquefaction.","PeriodicalId":42883,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Geoscience","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23312041.2016.1190264","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60091658","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}

To understand the sedimentation process of the lake, bottom sediments from the bottom-surface of the lake core samples from the top 1.25 m of the bottom layer were collected. These samples were mechanically analysed in the laboratory. The analysis of statistical parameters of the sediment samples has generally classified the lake into two depositional environments that reflect the sedimentation process; (1) the riverine environment that exist at the entrance of the lake between El-Daka and CC stations, (2) the lacustrine environment that extend along the rest of the lake to the High Aswan Dam. Along the riverine environment, the river processes were the prevailing, which being reflected on the bottom sediments that are nearly free from clay and composed mainly of sand (>87%) mixed with small ratios of silt (<10%). Further downstream to the end of the lake the lacustrine environment is dominating with slow deposition from quite water with bottom sediments free of sand and the bottom sediments composed mainly of clay (>57%). X-ray analysis indicated that montmorillonite, kaolinite and illite are the dominant clay minerals.

Comparisons were made at individual and plot levels using original spectra, and individual and group level using simulated spectra. The near-infrared region showed consistent significant differences between A. laricinus and adjacent land cover types at the individual level analysis. In particular, Landsat- and SPOT 5-simulated spectra showed significant differences in only the NIR band. The findings suggest the potential of upscaling field-based data into airborne or spaceborne remote sensing techniques with more emphasis on the NIR band. However, more studies need to be undertaken that will make up for the shortcomings encountered in this study. In this regard, improvements can be made using large number of samples, stratifying target plants according to phenologies, and taking spectral measurements at ideal times as much as possible. Furthermore, laboratory measurements would help in drawing up conclusive statements on the discriminability of the species.","PeriodicalId":42883,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Geoscience","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/23312041.2016.1154650","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60091624","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}
