Download or read book Saline and Sodic Soils written by E. Bresler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In keeping with the spirit of an Advanced Series in the Agricultural Sciences, we have attempted to address herein most of the current research areas being used to characterize, describe and manage salt-affected soils. Because of a certain amount of personal bias inherent in our individual viewpoints and backgrounds, some areas have been accorded more emphasis than others. It has been our goal, however, to provide either detail about, or at least a recent reference to, each major area of current soil salinity research. This information, coupled with what we hope to be a rather logical progression from descriptive material on equilibrium or near-equilibrium soil chemistry, through transport processes, to eventual management practices including some elementary economic decisions, should enable the reader to bridge the gap from introductory soil chemistry or soil physics texts to the basic literature of this area. The text will be perceived by the astute reader as somewhat uneven in its treatment of respective sections. We feel that this is to a certain extent appropriate, for it thus portrays the unevenness of progress to date in the corresponding areas of research. The management of saline and sodic soils remains largely an empirical semi-science or even art, whereas transport phenomena are normally dealt with in a much more theoretical (and also a much more highly mathematical) vein. Equilibrium soil chemistry has historically occupied an intermediate position with respect to its mix of empiricism and theoretical rigor.

Download or read book Climate, Environment and Disaster in Developing Countries written by Narayan Chandra Jana and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is currently experiencing changes in climate and environment that often lead to natural disasters. Nearly three million people worldwide may have been killed in the past 20 years by natural disasters. In total, 90% of the natural disasters and 95% of all disaster-related deaths occur in the developing countries. Recently such problems have accelerated due to LULC change, biodiversity degradation, increased tourism, urbanization and climate change. This book, consisting of 27 chapters, explores the topics of climate, environment and natural disasters in developing countries. It is essential to discuss these diverse issues in the field of geography as it encompasses interdisciplinary topics. The range of issues on national, regional and local dimensions is not only confined to geography but also concerned to other disciplines as well. Therefore, this book is a valuable source for scientists and researchers in allied fields such as climatology, disaster management, environmental science, hydrology, agriculture, and land use studies, among other areas. Furthermore, this book can be of immense help to the planners and decision-makers engaged in dealing with the problems of climate, environmental change and natural disasters in developing countries.

Download or read book Abiotic Stress Adaptation and Tolerance Mechanisms in Crop Plants written by Jiban Shrestha and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-06-27 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural communities are being affected by climate change. Droughts, heat waves, cold snaps, and flooding are all regarded as severe threats to crop production as they hinder plant growth and development, resulting in yield losses. Plants respond to stress through a complex process that includes changes in physiological and biochemical processes, gene expression, and alterations in the amounts of metabolites and proteins at different developmental stages. This special issue will focus on recent advances in the use of various traditional and modern biotechnological strategies to understand stress adaptation and tolerance mechanisms including (but not limited to) genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics, miRNA, genome editing, transgenic plants, exogenous application of plant growth regulators, and so on. Abiotic stress is a key constraint to agricultural production around the world. Water deficit, excess precipitation, high and low temperature, and salinity are the most prevalent abiotic stresses. Compaction, mineral availability, and pH-related stressors are among the others. This Research Topic aims to highlight the most recent breakthroughs in plant responses to abiotic stresses and adaptation/tolerance strategies. This special issue provides the advanced toolkit and technologies that are used to investigate and understand plant responses to abiotic stress. The purpose of this special issue is to give a platform for scientists and academics from across the world to promote, share, and discuss new concerns and advancements in the field of abiotic stress in plants. Current updates and recent developments in the physiological, molecular, and genetic perspectives on combined and sequential stress responses and tolerance in field crops are expected in articles. Original research and review articles dealing with abiotic stress are welcomed. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to: • Physiological, biochemical and molecular responses of plants under abiotic stress. • Systems biology approaches to study abiotic stress in crop plants. • Phenotyping for abiotic stress tolerance in crops. • Physiological and molecular characterization of crop tolerance to abiotic stresses. • Molecular breeding for developing and improving abiotic stress resilience in crops. • Microbial mitigation of abiotic stress responses in crops • Omics technologies for abiotic stress tolerance in plants. • Performance of novel GMO crops under abiotic stress conditions. • CRISPR-Cas Genome editing tools for the Improvement of abiotic stress tolerance in plants. • Crop production in abiotic stress conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human-induced salinisation is a major threat to the world's land and water resources. Inadequate development of irrigation projects, inefficient irrigation, lack of proper drainage, and environmental mismanagement such as the clearing of native vegetation, are responsible for the loss of millions of hectares of agricultural and grazing land, as well as the misuse of scarce water resources. The first part of this book analyses the problem in the context of the world's population, its climate and its land and water resources. It reviews irrigation methods and crop water requirements, the processes of salinisation, and its management. The second part describes irrigated land, dryland and water-resource salinity problems in 11 countries, which contain approximately 70 per cent of the world's irrigated land. In each case study, background data, environmental conditions and past management practices are given to provide an understanding of why salinity occurs in particular places, and of the management methods employed against it.

This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Green Revolution bypassed the state in its first wave in the 1960s and 1970s. Subsequently, during a short interval in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the agricultural growth rate reached almost 3 percent per year, one of the highest in the country, though over a smaller base. Even this modest growth was short-lived, and stagnation has set in again. This report explores why. Although the overall agricultural scenario of Bihar reflects slow growth and even stagnation, some regions in the state (like the Sone command area in south Bihar) and some crops (like maize) and allied activities (like the dairy and the livestock sector) show reasonable growth and dynamism. This report also explores such nascent sources of growth and discusses policies and investments that will put agriculture in Bihar on the takeoff trajectory.
