Abstract

Acid dry land can become a centre for soybean production through improved cultivation techniques and the use of improved varieties that are acid-tolerant. In connection with this problem, research has been carried out to evaluate the effect of the application of organic fertilizers, inorganic fertilizers, and biological fertilizers on soybean productivity in acid soils. The experiment was conducted in a screen house at Iletri, Malang, East Java, using acid dry soil from Banten, West Java. The soybean seed used in this research was Wilis variety. The evaluated treatments were a combination of types and quantities of nutrient-rich organic fertilizer with acid formula (Santap-M), NPKS Phonska inorganic fertilizer, and biological fertilizer (Iletrisoy Rhizobium and Pseudomonas sp P-solubilizing bacteria, both were Iletri collections). The results showed that the addition of organic and inorganic NPKS fertilizers on acid soils could increase soybean productivity and the population of P-solubilizing bacteria Pseudomonas sp. The recommended alternative technology component for improving soybean productivity and Banten acid soil is a combination of 1500 kg Santap-M nutrient-rich organic fertilizer + 150 kg Phonska/ha. The results of this study add to the positive list that use of organic fertilizers and inorganic fertilizers NPKS is an alternative option that needs to be considered for sustainable soybean cultivation in acid dry land.

Abstract

The study aimed to evaluate the effect of area exclosure established in a degraded area with moisture harvesting structures (EX-SWC) relative to the adjacent exclosure area without moisture harvesting structures (EX) in restoring the woody plants. Vegetation data from a total of 30 plots that has an area of 20 m x 20 m, in the EX-SWC and the adjacent EX area were collected, independently. The density of trees and seedlings, diversity, vegetation structure and Importance Value Index (IVI) were analysed. Pearson’s correlation was also used for the data analysis. The Shannon diversity index was 1.6 and 1.57 in the EX-SWC and EX area, respectively. The relative density of trees (578 stems/ha) and seedlings (1530 stems/ha) in the EX-SWC area were relatively higher than the relative density of trees (466 stems/ha) and seedlings (1202 stems/ha) in the adjacent EX area. There was no significant relationship between the number of moisture harvesting structures established in each plot and the relative density of seedlings per plot (p <0.05, R2=0.18). The relative density of seedlings at the lower height classes (1 – 60 cm) in the EX-SWC area was relatively higher than the adjacent EX area. The IVI result for most of the recorded species in the EX-SWC area was also relatively higher than in the EX area. The overall results showed that the implemented moisture harvesting structures facilitated the regeneration of woody plants in the degraded area. Therefore, we recommend implementing soil and water conservation structures in degraded area restoration projects to facilitate the regeneration of woody plants.

Abstract

 Topsoil in post-mined land generally has a low fertility level. Its availability is not always in sufficient quantities to meet minimal needs for mine reclamation, so substitute materials and ameliorants are needed to increase its quantity and quality. Fine coal and fly ash-bottom ash (FABA) are wastes expected to reduce the demand for topsoil and, at the same time, may improve topsoil quality. This study aimed to examine the application of fine coal as a topsoil substitution and its effect on changes in the chemical properties of topsoil and the growth of jabonv (Anthocephalus chinensis). The study was conducted in a greenhouse with a completely randomized design model with two factors. The first factor was fine coal with four levels of 0, 10, 20, and 50% from the topsoil (w/w), and the second factor was FABA with three levels of 0, 500, 1000 g/15 kg of growing media. The jabon plant was grown for 24 weeks. The results showed that up to 50% fine coal could be used as a topsoil substitution. The interaction of fine coal and FABA increase pH, organic C, total N, cation exchange capacity, available P, base saturation, exchangeable cations, and micronutrients, and reduce the amount of exchangeable Al in the soil. FABA with a dose of 1000 g/15 kg of growing media and 50% fine coal was the best treatment to increase the growth of the jabon plant.

Abstract

La présente étude a été menée dans le but de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension de l'adaptation des psammo-halophytes à leurs environnements hostiles à travers la détermination de leur statut mycorhizien. Il s'agissait de l'évaluation du statut mycorhizien de Plantago coronopus L. en relation avec les paramètres édaphiques de sa rhizosphère dans une dune du littoral oranais. Des échantillons de sol rhizosphérique et de racines ont été prélevés sur trois sites situés sur les dunes de Bomo-plage, à l'ouest d'Oran. Les paramètres de colonisation mycorhizienne de la plante et les paramètres physico-chimiques du substrat ont été déterminés. Les résultats ont montré que le substrat avait une texture sablo-limoneuse, il était légèrement salin, très pauvre en eau et en nutriments, avec une forte charge de calcaire total et une faible teneur en carbone organique et en azote total. Les racines ont été colonisées par des champignons de type mycorhizes arbusculaires avec une fréquence moyenne élevée (61,34%). Les résultats de l'analyse en composantes principales ont révélé que les paramètres mycorhiziens étaient positivement corrélés avec la salinité du sol, le carbone organique et la matière organique, l'azote total et le limon. Cependant, la corrélation entre les paramètres mycorhiziens et le pH,

Abstract

The vegetative coverage throughout the world is rapidly changing, which also directly affects the land degradation. Therefore, this study was intended to investigate the vegetation vulnerability analysis triggered by land use/land cover (LULC) dynamics as an indicator of land degradation conditions using Remote Sensing and GIS in Guna-tana watershed. Trend studies and cross-sectional research design was employed, which produces data from the population at a particular point in time and to examine patterns of change with a mixed research approach to examine the degree of influence to measure the sensitivity analysis. A multi-criteria decision evaluation was used to create a vegetation vulnerability map for the research area. The vulnerability model was run using four sets of parameters: closeness to the road, slope, settlement closeness, and land use planning. Landsat imageries of 1995 and 2020 was used to conduct a comparative study of land use pattern. The study area has experienced a sequence of land degradation from 1995 to 2020, according to the results of multitemporal data. Agricultural and built-up lands have increased throughout this time, while forest and shrub land has decreased. The vegetation vulnerability of the area also shows that 19.23% extreme vulnerable and 67.03% very strongly vulnerable which is more than 80% of the area is highly vulnerable to vegetation. Vegetation suitability and land management evaluation is critical for determining the risk of land deterioration, that shows the adverse effects on ecological elements due to a decrease in metabolic capacity and patch disintegration processes.

Abstract

A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a green device that utilizes chemical energy in organic materials to generate electricity. The low-cost electrode used in this study was made from agricultural waste, coconut shells. The electrochemical properties were improved by combining oxidizing agents and microwave heating processes. The modified coconut shell electrode outperformed virgin biochar by 30.89-fold (230.13±10.11 m2/g). The maximum open-circuit voltage, current density, and power density are respectively 995.00±5.00 mV, 841.67±14.43 mA/m2, and 283.42±9.67 mW/m2. This study demonstrated that modified coconut shell biochar could be used as a low-cost alternative electrode for electricity generation.

Abstract

Changes in natural land use for monoculture cropping systems may affect the soil properties over a certain period of time. In an attempt to evaluate soil chemical properties in the cassava cropping system, the research was conducted in Pati Regency, Central Java. Four land use systems were compared, i.e. monoculture cassava (cultivated for 5, 10, and 15 years) and agroforestry systems in two different slopes (i.e., 8-15% and 16-40%), with four replications. Soil samples from each location were taken at a depth of 0-20 and 21-40 cm for soil chemical analysis (pH, cation exchange capacity, organic C, total N, available P, exchangeable K, Ca, and Mg). Soils in agroforestry systems had higher pH, CEC, the content of organic C, total N, exchangeable K, Ca and Mg than in cassava cropping systems, especially on the slope of 8-15%. The soil under 15 years cassava and on the slope of 16-40% had the most degraded soil chemical properties, as reflected by the lowest content of organic C, total N, exchangeable K, and slightly lower CEC and the content of exchangeable Ca and Mg. Soil chemical properties on the slopes of 8-15% were significantly better than on the slopes of 16-40%, especially in CEC and the content of organic C, total N, exchangeable K and Mg. However, there was an unclear pattern of the available P content, which was possibly due to the application of P fertilizer in cassava cropping systems.

Abstract

In the Philippines, legacy mines and active mine wastes pose potential threats since these may contain elevated concentrations of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and high natural radioactivity. In this study, legacy mine wastes from the Philippine Iron Mine (PIM), Barlo Mine (BM), and Rapu-Rapu Mine (RRM) and active mine tailing from Padcal Mine (PM) were analyzed to determine the concentrations of fifteen (15) PTEs and the activity concentrations of natural radionuclides. Several quantitative risk indicators and radiological health risk parameters were utilized to determine the potential effects of these mine wastes to the natural environment and to human health. Legacy mine wastes have higher contents of PTEs and are more polluted by PTEs than PM tailing. Both enrichment factor (EF) and geoaccumulation index (Igeo) values suggest that legacy mine wastes are strongly polluted by As, Cd, Cu, and Mo. BM and RM wastes are also polluted by Pb, Sb, and Zn; PIM waste is polluted by Ni and V; and BM waste is polluted by Tl. Padcal mine tailing is only moderately polluted by Cu and Mo. The natural radionuclide activity concentrations of legacy and active mine wastes are below the global background values and the radiological hazard indices are also all lower than their permissible limits, except for 40K, 238U, and absorbed gamma dose rate in PIM due to a geogenic source. Unlike the PTEs, radioactivity in the legacy and active mine wastes are not enhanced by mining activities and is not a significant risk factor to human health.

Abstract

Determining the oil palm dead roots contribution to total (Rt) and heterotrophic (Rh) respiration as a source of greenhouse gas/GHG emission in tropical peatland is urgently required, as well as predicting their magnitude to cope with difficulties of direct in-situ measurement. This study is designed to simulate the CO2 flux emitted from oil palm dead roots/Rdr in tropical peatland as affected by water content/WC and residence time/RT. The dead oil palm roots were cleaned, treated with control/15, 100, 150, 300, and 450%WC, and then incubated for three months. CO2 flux measurement, C, N, and CN ratio determination were conducted every month. This study demonstrated the importance Rdr among other CO2 emission sources, ranging from 0.05-2.3 Mg CO2 ha-1 year-1 with an average of 0.7 Mg CO2 ha-1 year-1. Rdr contribution for literature Rt and Rh were around 0.3 to 1.3 and 0.9 to 3.5%, respectively. As a product of microbial respiration, Rdr was affected by WC and RT, supported by analysis of variance, linear mixed effect model/REML, and multivariate analysis. 100-150%WC resulting in significant and highest Rdr, whereas the increase (300-450%WC) or decrease (15%WC) would generate lower emission. Rdr culminated in the first month after incubation; meanwhile, it declined in the following months. This study also emphasized non-linear relationships between CO2 flux and other root properties, which can be modeled conveniently using non-linear approach, particularly using polynomial and artificial intelligence-based models. The simulation presented in this study served as an initial attempt to separate Rdr from Rh, as well as to predict CO2 flux with reasonable accuracy and interpretable methods.

Abstract

Population growth in urban areas increases rapidly due to improving economic conditions. However, this growth is not always followed by the addition of public facilities such as clean water facilities and sewage water system networks, especially in developing countries. There are still many people who use on-site sanitation systems that will cause groundwater pollution problems. In addition, many people in urban areas still depend on groundwater for drinking water. The quality of groundwater becomes an essential factor for this purpose. One of the common groundwater problems in urban areas is nitrate concentration. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the potential groundwater contamination, the primary source of nitrate contamination in groundwater, and their influencing factor in the study area. The research method used the Cl/NO3 ratio and Cl/Br ratio to determine the source of nitrate in the study area. The groundwater contamination potential was evaluated based on depth to the groundwater table, sorption capacity above the groundwater table, permeability, groundwater table gradient, and horizontal distance from the contaminant source. In addition, the total of family members, age of the settlement, the distance of the well from the septic tank, and groundwater table depth were correlated with nitrate concentration. The results showed that nitrate levels in the research area generally exceed the maximum drinking water limit by WHO, with the maximum concentration reaching 167 mg/L. The high concentration of nitrate in the groundwater is due to contamination. According to the diagrams of nitrate versus chloride and the Cl/Br ratio analysis, the primary source of groundwater nitrate contamination is a septic tank. The higher family member and age of the settlement have a positive correlation with increasing nitrate concentration. Besides, distance from the septic tank and depth of the groundwater table is negatively correlated with nitrate concentration.
