Evaluation Of Some Soil Physical Characteristics Of Marshes Soil South Of Iraq


Abstract in English

This study was conducted to evaluation of some marshes soil physical characteristics at south Iraq from studying soil properties and accounting the simple and multiple correlation coefficients and relation equations, from which we can predicted the soil aggregate stability modules of rapture and soil bulk density. Three transacts were chosen, which cover all south Iraqi marshes, with selection of the larger marshes at every transect. The transects are: First toward Amara included marshes of Al-Msendak, Al-Saadiah and Al-Wadiah. Second toward Al- Nasiriah which included the marshes of Delmag, Ghumugaa and Al-hammar. Third toward Samawa which included the marshes of Al- Ramah and Lafti.
