Effect Of Calcium Carbonate, Ph, Mud And Organic Carbon On Soil Phosphate Sedimentation For Some Farms In Wadi Hadramout, Abdul Aziz Salem Dayan

Hadhramout University Journal of Natural & Applied Sciences

This study was conducted to determine the effect of calcium carbonate, pH, the amount of clay on phosphate adsorption, and the effect of early fertilization of phosphatic fertilizer on the amount of fertilizer. Three samples of surface soil (0-30 cm) were obtained from Al-Mashhad (Cotton) and (Sweiri) farms, Hadramout governorate, which differ in their content for: Total calcium carbonate ratio. The amount of clay in its mechanical analysis. Organic carbon.pH (pH).The samples were incubated at room temperature (24-28° C) and at varying concentrations of Monocalsumphosphate. The correlation coefficient was used to find the statistical relationship between the adsorption and release …

Spatial And Temporal Variations In The Air-Sea Carbon Dioxide Fluxes Of Florida Bay, Christopher Michael Dufore

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The flux of CO2 between the ocean and the atmosphere is an important measure in determining local, global, and regional, as well as short term and long term carbon budgets. In this study, air-sea CO2 fluxes measured using a floating chamber were used to examine the spatial and temporal variability of CO2 fluxes in Florida Bay. Measurements of dissolved inorganic carbon and total alkalinity obtained concurrently with chamber measurements of CO2 flux allowed calculation of ΔpCO2 from flux measurements obtained at zero wind velocity. Floating chamber measurements of ΔpCO2 were subsequently coupled with wind speed data to provide a simple …

Calcium Carbonate Dissolution And Precipitation In Water: Factors Affecting The Carbonate Saturometer Method, Lyle M. Dabb

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The carbonate saturometer method developed by Weyl (1961) was studied in respect to the effect of several variables on the solubility of carbonates. The solubility of three solid carbonate materials was measured in four different salt solutions, at four ionic strengths, and at two different temperatures. The solids studied included: calcite, dolomite, and a calcareous soil.

It was found that the three solid carbonate materials varied in solubility from a low in the soil carbonates to a high in dolomite.

Increasing the ionic strength of the solution increased the solubility of most of the solid carbonate materials.

By decreasing the …

Magnesium Ion Inhibition Of Calcium Carbonate Precipitation And Its Relation To Water Quality, John J. Hassett

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The effect of Mg⁺⁺ ion on the solubility of calcium carbonate was determined using P. K. Weyls "carbonate saturometer."

The amount of calcium carbonate precipitated or dissolved was measured for five series of waters when equilibrated with solid carbonate.

It was found that the effect of Mg⁺⁺ ion on solubility depend upon the nature of the solid phase: surface area, coprecipitated Mg⁺⁺, minerology, etc.

Pure low area calcite showed an increase in solubility which could be explained by ion-pair formation, while its other carbonates departed from this behavior.
