Prediction of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Using Soil Texture and Organic Carbon Under Different Land Use Types

Onasanya, O. O*, F.K. Salako, AJIBOYE G. A., Busari M. A.

The aim of this study is to develop models for saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) in soils under different land use types in a tropical environment. The regression models were developed using the soil particle size fraction and organic carbon contents.The results indicated that the sand, clay and organic carbon content of the soils were sufficie...

Jamiu Oladipupo Azeez*, Oladosu S.A.O, Ilori O. E, Omotosho S. M., Onasanya, O. O, Oguntade O. A.

To prevent risks of metal pollution and secure public health, the assessment of the pollutant load of different land use is germane in emerging cities. The study investigated the distribution of water, EDTA and HCl extractable Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, Cr, Ni and Mn in soils of different land uses in Abeokuta, southwestern Nigeria. It was hypothesized that l...
