Salt-induced soil degradation is a serious threat to global agriculture which is responsible
for diminished productivity of agro-ecosystems. Irrigation with poor quality water and …

Soil degradation and salinization are two of the utmost threat affecting agricultural areas,
derived from the increasing use of low quality water and inappropriate cultural practices. The …

Salt stress has been increasingly constraining crop productivity in arid lands of the world
and there is some evidence that a combination of straw layer burial and plastic film mulching …

The soil of the former lake Texcoco is an 'extreme'alkaline saline soil with pH> 10 and
electrolytic conductivity (EC)> 150 dS m− 1. These conditions have created a unique …

Organic matter dynamics and nutrient availability in saline alkaline soil of the former lake
Texcoco will determine the success of a planned reforestation program. Uniformly labelled …

The soil of the former lake Texcoco is an extreme environment localized in the valley of
Mexico City, Mexico. It is highly saline and alkaline, where Na+, Cl−, HCO 3− and CO 3 2 …

Flooding an extreme alkaline-saline soil decreased alkalinity and salinity, which will change
the bacterial populations. Bacterial 16S rDNA libraries were generated of three soils with …

The Lake of Texcoco is a closed basin with soils that confer salinity, conductivity, and
alkalinity to it. It has undergone a reduction in size, incorporation of wastewater, and short …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as phenanthrene, anthracene and Benzo [a]
pyrene (BaP) are toxic for the environment. Removing these components from soil is difficult …

Soil of the former lake Texcoco is alkaline saline with pH often> 10 and electrolytic
