ABSTRACT Soil compaction poses a significant threat to soil quality and sustainability, necessitating advanced assessment methods. We hypothesized that incorporating x‐ray computed tomography (XCT)‐derived pore characteristics with hydraulic properties would significantly enhance the development of a soil quality index (SQI) under soil compaction ...

A comparative study of higher plant diversity and communities on opencast sites of varying age and adjacent undisturbed areas [PDF]
A survey of three habitat types (woodland, hedgerow and pasture) on opencast sites of varying age and adjacent undisturbed sites N,W. of Durham was undertaken. Time since disturbance seems to be the primary influence on the development of organic content

Strategy of Russian Coal Mining Enterprises’ Excavator Park Technical State Correction
Coal extraction in Russian Federation increases by 3…4 %. This tendency will remain in the nearest 10…15 years. Opencast mining makes (70…72)% from the total extraction in the country. Though analysis shows that investments in coal mining within the last

Revegetating the subsoil layer of abandoned gold mined sites with the perennial legumes Leucaena Leucocephala, Pueraria phaseoloides and Gliricidia sepium without any soil amendments increases the content of soil organic carbon and important macro‐nutrients, which are crucial for restoring soil health and productivity. These improvements in soil health

Problems of definitive slopes mining at Doly Nástup Tušimice [PDF]
The instability of slopes influents mining business in many aspects at opencast mining. The temporary decrease of intended mined volumes due to landslips is common and sometimes there is necessary to change origin-mining plans.
