Soil structure stability and organic carbon distribution along the toposequence of Orumba North in derived savannah of the South-East, Nigeria

Jidere, C.M.^*, Ezeokoye, C.S., Obalum, S.E., Ukaegbu, E. P

In high-rainfall zones with severe water erosion problems, soil structure stability as promoted by soil organic carbon (SOC) should be prioritized. Landscape positions and land use influence soil properties and nutrient distribution. This study assessed soil structure stability and SOC content at top-slope, mid-slope and low-slope positions of a to...

Research Article Vol. 25, Issue 1

Impact of Open Cast Mine Land Use on Soil Physical Properties in Enyigba, Southeastern Nigeraand the Implication for Sustainable Land Use Management

Okolo, C.C.^*, Akamigbo, F.O.R., , Ezeaku, P.I., Nwite, J.N, Nwite, J.C, Ezeudo, V. C, Ene, J., Ukaegbu, E. P, Udegbunam, O.N., Eze, N. C

The study examined the extent of soil physical properties deterioration due to mining activities in Enyiba Ebonyi State, Southeastern Nigeria. In the study, two factors were considered: factor A - Soil depths (surface soil: 0-15 cm and subsurface soil: 15-30 cm) and factor B - Distances from mine pits (100 m, 200 m, 300 m, 400 m and 500 m away from...
