1. Visible And Near-Infrared Spectroscopy For Monitoring Potentially Toxic Elements In Reclaimed Dumpsite Soils Of The Czech RepublicDue to rapid economic development, high levels of potentially harmful elements and heavy metals are continuously being released into the brown coal mining dumpsites of the Czech Republic. Elevated metal contents in soils not only dramatically impact the soil quality, but also due to their persistent nature and long biological half-lives, contaminant elements can accumulate in the food chain and can eventually endanger human health. Conventional methods for investigating potentially... L. Borùvka, M. Saberioon, R. Vašát, A. Gholizadeh |
2. Technology Support for Game Monitoring As a Tool for Damages Reduction of Field CropsWild boars (Sus scrofa) are increasingly becoming the main cause of field crops damage in Czech Republic and central Europe area. There are many reasons why wild boars population is growing. The major reason is most likely change in the composition of field crops. In some areas in particular there is focus on oilseed rape and maize, for which there are also recorded the biggest losses. One of the key discussion topics is the issue of estimation of animal quantities and its traceability.... J. Jarolimek, M. Stočes, M. Ulman, J. Vaněk |
3. Soil Microbial Communities Have Distinct Spatial Patterns in Agricultural FieldsSoil microbial communities mediate many important soil processes in agricultural fields, however their spatial distribution at distances relevant to precision agriculture is poorly understood. This study examined the soil physico-chemical properties and topographic features controlling the spatial distribution of soil microbial communities in a commercial potato field in eastern Canada using next generation sequencing. Soil was collected from a transect (1100 m) with 83 sampling points in a landscape... B. Zebarth, C. Goyer, S. Neupane, S. Li, A. Mills, S. Whitney, A. Cambouris, I. Perron |
