Sewage sludge in doses of 200 and 400 Mg ha 71 (dry weight) were applied in an experimental rehabilitation of a limestone quarry to improve soil physical condition. The eect of this organic waste on soil aggregation and structural stability has been tested measuring aggregate size distribution by dr

In an incubation experiment the mineralisation of gulmohur (Delonix regia L.) leaves added to soil was studied at increased salt concentrations. CO2 evolution and total carbon mineralisation decreased with increased concentrations of salt mixture (NaC1 + CaCI~) from 0.1 to 5.1 per cent, and the pro
The effect of soil treatment with sewage and sludge at three doses (1%, 10% and 20% w/w) on its fungal population was studied in vitro. The treatment of soil with sewage significantly increased the count of total fungi after 1 week by the high dose, and after 12 weeks by each of the three doses. Fun
