Soil Loss Prediction on Mobile Platform Using Universal Soil-Loss Equation (USLE) Model [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Indirect method for soil loss predictions are plentiful, one of which is Universal soil-loss equation (USLE) model. Available technology in mobile applications prompted the authors to develop a tool for calculating soil loss for many land types by transforming the USLE model into smart mobile application.

Ammonia volatilization, nitrogen in soil, and growth of barley after application of peat manure and pig slurry [PDF]

, 2006
Peat is added to manure, because its low pH and capacity to adsorb ammonia (NH3) give it potential to reduce nitrogen (N) loss. Peat manure was prepared by mixing pig slurry with moderately humified Sphagnum peat. Less than 1% of applied ammoniacal N was
