Salinity is a threat to the sustainability of many agricultural systems and especially for irrigated areas in arid and semi-arid zones. Besides the possible specific toxicity the main effect of salts is the reduction of soil osmotic potential causing an effect similar to that of water deficit.

Salinity and the reclamation of salinized lands
2021Salinization of land is a form of desertification; salinization of rivers is a global threat to biodiversity and compromises the ecosystem goods and services of rivers, wetlands, and lakes. Salinization is caused by flooding or inundation with saline waters, breaching of dykes, storm surges, tsunamis, or the drying of large inland water bodies ...

Soil salinity significantly limits citrus production in many areas worldwide. Although data on fruit yields in response to salinity are limited, they indicate that grapefruit, lemons, and oranges are among the most sensitive of all agricultural crops.

Salinization and Saline Environments
2003This chapter provides an overview of global salinization phenomena and investigates the different mechanisms and geochemical processes that are associated with salinization. The overview includes salinization of rivers, lakes, and groundwater from different parts of the world.

Salinity Selection for a Low Salinity Water-Low Salinity Surfactant Process
Journal of Dispersion Science and Technology, 2014A laboratory selection of salinity for a low salinity water-low salinity surfactant (LS-LSS) process is presented in this paper with systematical investigation on surfactant phase behavior, interfacial tension (IFT), and dynamic retention in porous media with IOS2024 and isoamyl alcohol (IAA) as surfactant system.

RESPONSES OF SALINE AND NON-SALINE POPULATIONS OF ECLIPTA ALBA TO SOIL SALINITY
Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1979Experimental study on the growth and development of saline and non-saline populations of Eclipta alba Hassk., planted on soils artificially salinized with water-soluble salts of sodium and a saturation extract of saline soil, revealed differences in their salt-adaptive capabilities.

Salinity characterization of the Kenyan saline soils
Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, 2004Abstract Representative samples of the saline soils of Kenya were analysed for pH, electrical conductivity, and contents of various ions in their saturation paste / paste extracts. The salt ion contents and types were characterized using a chemical classification system.

AbstractThirty crop species provide 90% of our food, most of which display severe yield losses under moderate salinity. Securing and augmenting agricultural yield in times of global warming and population increase is urgent and should, aside from ameliorating saline soils, include attempts to increase crop plant salt tolerance.

Control of Estuarine Salinities by Coastal Ocean Salinity
1990Shelf-estuarine exchange along the Louisiana coast is known to be dominated by barotropic, tidal and sub-tidal exchanges. Simple regression of the estuarine salinities against Mississippi River discharge and cross-spectrum analysis do not produce a successful hindcast of the observations.

Salt accumulation in soils, affecting agricultural productivity, environmental health, and the economy of the community, is a global phenomenon since the decline of ancient Mesopotamian civilization by salinity. The global distribution of salt-affected soils is estimated to be around 830 million hectares extending over all the continents, including ...
