Abstract. In this paper, we present and analyze a novel global database of soil infiltration measurements, the Soil Water Infiltration Global (SWIG) database. total, 5023 curves were collected across all continents in SWIG These data either provided quality checked by scientists who performed experiments or they digitized from published articles. Data 54 different countries included with major contributions Iran, China, USA. addition to its extensive geographical coverage, cover research...
The removal of sodium salts from saline soils by salt tolerant crops, as alternative for costly chemical amendments, has emerged an efficient low cost technology. Lysimeter experiments were carried out on a highly sodic soil (ECe = 65.3 dS m(-1), ESP 27.4, CEC 47.9 cmole+ kg(-1), and pH 7.7) irrigated with canal water (EC 2.2 dSm(-1), SAR 4.8) to investigate reclamation efficiency under four different treatments: control (no crop no gypsum application) (C), application equivalent 100%...
Biochar has been explored as a sorbent for contaminants, soil amendment and climate change mitigation tool through carbon sequestration. Through the optimization of pyrolysis process, biochar can be designed with qualities to suit intended uses. samples were prepared from four particle sizes (100–2000 µm) three different feedstocks (oak acorn shells, jift deseeded carob pods) at temperatures (300–600 °C). The effect these combinations on properties produced was studied. yield decreased...
Abstract Biochar is increasingly recognized for its ability to enhance hydro-physical properties of soil, offering promising solutions improving soil structure, water retention, and overall agricultural productivity. In this study, sandy loam was amended at different rates (0, 15, 30, 60 t ha −1 ) biochar produced from olive pomace (Jift) pyrolysis temperatures (300, 400, 500, 600 °C), incubated 60, 90 days. The biochar-amended soils were collected analysis after each incubation period...
Exploring the genetic diversity among plant accessions is important for conserving and managing resources. In current study, a collection of forty-six tomato from Jordan were evaluated based on their performance morpho-physiological, in addition to molecularly characterizing detect diversity. Tomato seedlings exposed drought stress with 70% field capacity 40% under conditions Jordan. Drought had significantly negatively influenced dry root weight, fresh growth rate, shoot rate. Moreover,...
Tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicon L.) are one of the main daily consumed vegetables in human diet. Tomato has been classified as moderately sensitive to salinity at most stages plant development, including seed germination, seedling (vegetative), and reproduction phases. In this study, we evaluated performance response 39 tomato landraces from Jordan under salt stress conditions. Furthermore, were also genetically characterized using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The studied...
Six biochars derived from olive mill solid waste were prepared by varying the temperature and treatment with FeCl3. The adsorption capacity of biochar increased pyrolysis was in order pre-treated>post-treated>untreated. Langmuir isotherm pseudo-second-order kinetic models best fit experimental results. 550°C pre-treated had highest aqueous solutions (103.9 73.9 mg.g−1 at pH = 2 5, respectively). Chemisorption dominating mechanism. using wastewater 51.3 mg.g−1. This work demonstrates that can...
