Variations In Stomatal Traits Of 14 Bornean Tree Species Growing On Soils With Different Moisture Contents In Lambir Hills National Park, Whitney Logan Cannon
Variations In Stomatal Traits Of 14 Bornean Tree Species Growing On Soils With Different Moisture Contents In Lambir Hills National Park, Whitney Logan Cannon
Department of Environmental Studies: Undergraduate Student Theses
The goal of this study was to look at variations in stomatal traits of tree species on soils with different moisture contents and fertility at Lambir Hills National Park. Stomates are important structures on the surface of leaves that mediate conduction of moisture and gassesin and out of the leaf. If stomatalt raits are important for regulation, then there should be variation in stomatal traits in regards to their soil specialization.

The Effect Of Different Land Uses On Soil Microbial Biomass Carbon And Nitrogen In Bartın Province, Ömer Kara, İlyas Bolat
The Effect Of Different Land Uses On Soil Microbial Biomass Carbon And Nitrogen In Bartın Province, Ömer Kara, İlyas Bolat
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
The microbial biomass of soil is being increasingly recognized as a sensitive indicator of soil quality. Its knowledge is fundamental for sustainable environmental management. This study aimed to determine the impact of different land uses (forest, pasture, and agricultural lands) on soil microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen using the chloroform fumigation extraction (CFE) method. This study also aimed to determine interrelationships between microbial biomass C (C_{mic}) and N (N_{mic}) and the physico-chemical characteristics of the soil. For this purpose, a total of 45 soil samples were taken from 3 different land uses located in the Ağdacı Village in Bartın. Additional …
Determination Of The Effects Of Hazelnut Husk And Tea Waste Treatments On Urease Enzyme Activity And Its Kinetics In Soil, Ridvan Kizilkaya, İmanverdi̇ Ekberli̇
Determination Of The Effects Of Hazelnut Husk And Tea Waste Treatments On Urease Enzyme Activity And Its Kinetics In Soil, Ridvan Kizilkaya, İmanverdi̇ Ekberli̇
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
In this research, the effects of 5% treatment of hazelnut husk (HH) and tea production waste (TEW) to clay loam soil on urease enzyme activity and its kinetics were determined in a 30-day soil incubation experiment. For this purpose, kinetic parameters (V_{max}, K_m, and V_{max}/K_m,) were calculated by determining urease activity in organic wastes treated soils in different substrate concentrations (0%, 1%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, and 12%), incubation periods (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 h), and incubation temperatures (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 °C) at the end of the 30 days of the …
