Characteristics of Soils Along a Toposequence in Ishiagu, Eastern Nigeria and Its Relation to Potential Agricultural Landuse.

Nsor M.E.*, Adesemuyi E.A

The soil along a toposequence in Isiagu, Eastern Nigeria was studied to establish its influence on soil properties and its relation to potential agricultural use. In order to characterize and classify the soil, three pedons were dug along the toposequence at the crest, middle slope and valley bottom. The soils were characterized in terms of their m...

Sustainability of Crop Production in Relation to Landscape Position and Soil Properties in Isiama, Abia State

Adesemuyi E.A*, Iroha J. N, Chukwu, G. O.

The research was carried out at Isiama in Umuahia North Local Government Area of Abia State, Nigeria to examine the relationship between landscape positions and some selected soil properties. The soil units studied occupied different landscape positions and were identified as the summit (EJ-1), upper (EJ-2), middle (EJ-3) and foot (EJ-4) slope clas...

Geospatial Predictive Model for Estimating Soil Thermal Conductivity and Diffusivity of Owaza Gas Flaring Site , Southeastern Nigeria

In this study, predictive model for estimating the soil thermal conductivity and diffusivity from fourteen different sample points around a horizontal gas flaring site was employed in two depths (0 – 15 cm and 15 – 30 cm). Seven of these points were within the gas flare bond wall. In contrast, other points were located outside the bond wall at vary...
