A laboratory study was conducted to determine the influence of redox potential and soil pH
on the distribution of Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu in Mhoon silty clay loam soil (Typic Fluvaquents) and …

<p>This paper presents a critical review on nitrogen (N) transformations functioning in flooded
soils and sediments, and their role in N loss from the system. Nitrogen transformations …

Conclusion Incubation experiments of untreated domestic waste showed that the isomeric
composition of LABs changes systematically due tomicrobial degradation. An I/E-degradation …
