On sampling collection procedure effectiveness for forest soil characterization

One of the most important measures to prevent wild forest fires is the use of prescribed and controlled burning actions as it reduce the fuel mass availability. The impact of these management activities on soil physical and chemical properties varies according to the type of both soil and vegetation. Decisions in forest management plans are often based on the results obtained from soil-monitoring campaigns. Tho...

A importância da fragmentação das paisagens urbanas na Grande Área Metropolitan...

The way the countless pieces of the urban puzzle are distributed in space and how they are carved on natural soil as well as the fluidity, with which each piece interacts with all the others, is crucial to determine the (un)success of these artificial landscapes. This success may be seen in a countless number of positive impacts and / or negative impacts on the ecosystem in which it operates. The human health a...

Characterization of soils in an area of prescribed fire

The prescribed fire is a technique that is often used, it has several advantages. Pedological and hydropedological techniques were tested to assess the prescribed fire changes may cause in soils. This work was performed in Tresminas area (Vila Pouca de Aguiar, Northern Portugal), during February and March 2011. In the present study we applied several techniques. For the field sampling was followed the ISO 10381...

Análise e comparação da utilização de métodos de Análise de Componentes Princip...

Neste trabalho apresentam-se os resultados da analise e comparação da utilização da Análise de Componentes Principais Clássica (ACP) e a Análise de Componentes Principais Robusta (ACPR) na descrição da relação entre a profundidade de um solo florestal e as alterações em quatro propriedades geoquímicas fundamentais. Os resultados obtidos reconhecem que, neste tipo de dados e cala local, a utilização da ACPR deve...

Over the past few decades there has been some discussion concerning the increase of the natural background radiation originated by coal-fired power plants, due to the uranium and thorium content present in combustion ashes. The radioactive decay products of uranium and thorium, such as radium, radon, polonium, bismuth and lead, are also released in addition to a significant amount of 40K. Since the measurement ...

Space-time monitoring of prescribed burnt soils performance – an effective tool...

Among the most important measures to prevent wild forest fires is the use of prescribed and controlled burning actions in order to reduce the availability of fuel mass. However, the impact of these activities on soil physical and chemical properties varies according to the type of both soil and vegetation and is not fully understood. Therefore, soil monitoring campaigns are often used to measure these impact...
