Mitigating Soil Salinity Stress with Gypsum and Bio-Organic Amendments: A Review

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Salinity impedes soil and crop productivity in over 900 million ha of arable lands worldwide due to the excessive accumulation of salt (NaCl). To utilize saline soils in agriculture, halophytes (salt-tolerant plants) are commonly cultivated.

Measurement of streaming potential coupling coefficient in sandstones saturated with natural and artificial brines at high selenity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We report experimental measurements of the streaming potential coupling coefficient in sandstones saturated with NaCl-dominated artificial and natural brines up to 5.5 M (321.4 g L−1 of NaCl; electrical conductivity of 23 S m−1).
