Sequestration of inorganic carbon in soil and groundwater
H. Curtis Monger,Rebecca A. Kraimer,Saeb Khresat,David R. Cole,Xiujun Wang,Xiujun Wang,Jiaping Wang +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a classification scheme that uses a calcium source illustrated by two widely recognized chemical reactions, and the concept of carbonate "generations" to quantify amounts of fossil fuel carbon that can be sequestered within a geoengineering context.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of land use/cover change on soil properties in the Mediterranean region of northwestern Jordan
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of deforestation on physical and chemical properties of soils under native forest in the Mediterranean region of northwestern Jordan were evaluated using land use/cover maps of 1953, 1978 and 2002 to quantify the shift from forest to rainfed cultivation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Land degradation in north-western Jordan: causes and processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the major soil properties that can be linked to land degradation were studied, including loss of soil fertility and productivity, overgrazing and water and wind erosion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Climate and Land Use Changes on Water and Food Security in Jordan: Implications for Transcending “The Tragedy of the Commons”
Jawad Al-Bakri,Mohammad Salahat,Ayman Suleiman,Marwan Suifan,Mohammad R. Hamdan,Saeb Khresat,Tarek Kandakji +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of climate change and land use change on water resources and food security in Jordan, where the per capita share of water is less than 145 m3/year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological, physical and chemical properties of selected soils in the arid and semi-arid region in north-western Jordan
TL;DR: In this paper, the morphological features and physico-chemical properties of four pedons representing the major soil types in the arid and semi-arid region in north-western Jordan were studied.
