faunal survey soil testing‚ air quality measurements and slope measurements. * Vegetation Survey- a survey was done of the vegetation at the site. Quadrats were tossed randomly within the site area. The vegetation within each quadrat was counted individually and recorded on our Vegetation Data Sheets. * Soil Testing- within each quadrat we dug up small quantities of the soil using small shovels. We then used our hands to examine the texture of the soil. Then a description of the soil content was

Quadrilateral just means "four sides" (quad means four‚ lateral means side). Any four-sided shape is a Quadrilateral. But the sides have to be straight‚ and it has to be2-dimensional. A quadrilateral is defined as any two-dimensional‚ four-sided shape that has four vertices with interior angles that equal 360 degrees. There are several quadrilateral variations that include parallelograms‚ rectangles‚ rhombuses‚ squares‚ trapezoids‚ and kites. Quadrilaterals * Parallelogram – A parallelogram

grown under full sunlight for photosynthesis. * Soil type: Cassava can be grown on most soils; however the best soils are sandy clay loams that are well drained without a fluctuating water table. Proper soil management practices‚ adequate soil drainage and limestone applications at 2-4 t/ha incorporated into the soil 3 to 4 months before planting are necessary for the successful cultivation of cassava in the following "sugarcane" soils: Washington Series‚ Waterloo Series‚ Couva Series‚ Freeport

to the soil helps produce healthier‚ more abundant crops; such a substance is called fertilizer. The researchers decided to make an organic fertilizer. Organic fertilizers are made up of organic materials such as leaves decay‚ they produce an excellent fertilizer. Fertilizers are also often by-products of some manufacturing process. Some organic fertilizers are waste products of living organisms. They also supply food for beneficial bacteria in the soil and improve the condition of the soil. They

Moringa in your diet‚ you can grow your own multivitamin! The Moringa tree grows to about 10 tall‚ with drooping branches. It thrives in subtropical and tropical climates‚ giving fruit and flowers continually. However Moringa grows best in dry‚ sandy soil. This makes it an ideal tree to grow in semi-desert conditions‚ as it provides both food and shade. Cultivation of Moringa - Easy Instructions 1. Find a sunny place. 2. Make square holes in the ground 30 to 60 cm deep 3. Fill the hole with loose

great year. Mr. Fritz turned off the lights and pulled up a presentation to introduce what Ecology Club did and the subjects would be learning. He told us the club would be going into depth on the elements that make up our Arizona ecosystem‚ such as‚ soils‚ aquatics‚ forestry‚ and wildlife‚ and an annual topic; this year it would be Sustainable Agriculture. Towards the end of the year we would break into teams of five and compete against various schools in Arizona. Each student would be specializing

Human Activities and the Loss of Natural Resources Natural resources including soil‚ water‚ forest‚ mineral and biodiversity have been repeatedly destroyed around the world by humans. “Since 1970‚ over 600‚000 square kilometers (232‚000 square miles) of Amazon rainforest have been destroyed” (Butler‚ 2011). The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) estimated that “soil erosion carries away a volume of soil equivalent to one metre deep over 200‚000 hectares every year in the Philippines.” In

(LAI) Leaf area of five randomly selected plants‚ was measured with the help of leaf area meter (Model LI-3100‚ USA) at 20‚ 40 and 60 DAS by destructive sampling from all leaves of the five sample plants (Sticker et al.‚ 1961). Plants were cut at the soil surface‚ leaves were separated from the plants‚ covered with blotting paper to keep the leaf intact and retain its original shape and were brought to the laboratory. Leaf area was measured immediately after bringing them in the laboratory. Leaf area
