Salinity Assay in Tomato [PDF]
Tomato is one of the most important horticultural crops worldwide, and is cultivated in semi-arid regions in which soil and groundwater salinity is an increasing limitation to yield. The assessment of the responses of new cultivars to salt and the comparisons among cultivars and wild species are of great interest in tomato breeding.

Fines Migration and Permeability Decline during Reservoir Depletion Coupled with Clay Swelling due to Low-Salinity Water Injection: An Analytical Study [PDF]
Fines migration behavior can either promote or obstruct fluid flow within the reservoir and is crucial for productivity optimization that needs fundamental understanding. The present work focuses on the contributions from effective stress build-up due to reservoir depletion and decreases in brine salinity from low-salinity water injection.

Sodicity stress differently influences physiological traits and anti-oxidant enzymes in pear and peach cultivars [PDF]
Background The growth and physiological responses to sodicity stress of pear and peach are poorly understood. Insights into how sodicity stress alters tree physiology remain vital to developing salt tolerant scion and rootstock cultivars.

Effects of salinity on leaf breakdown: Dryland salinity versus salinity from a coalmine [PDF]
Salinization of freshwater ecosystems as a result of human activities represents a global threat for ecosystems' integrity. Whether different sources of salinity with their differing ionic compositions lead to variable effects in ecosystem functioning is unknown.

Origin of salinity in a multilayered aquifer with high salinization vulnerability [PDF]
AbstractThe Kaluvelly watershed is a coastal area (Tamil Nadu, India) where water abstraction has resulted in a dramatic fall in the level of the water table and a piezometric depression in the most exploited aquifer, the Vanur aquifer. In addition, intensification/mechanization of agriculture may have affected the quality of recharge water. An initial
