Microbial populations and enzyme activities in a soil amended with sewage sludge in a long-term field experiment were studied in relation to the decomposition of organic matter. Two kinds of sewage sludges were applied to the soil at rates of 50 and 100 tons~ha~ year for 8 years. The percentage of h

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
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
## Abstract Various urban and industrial sewage sludges were applied to a soil at two doses (50 and 100βt ha^β1^ y^β1^) during eight years in a field experiment. The soil was analysed at two depths (0β30 and 30β60βcm) for extractable cadmium and nickel. In general these trace metal increased with d
## Abstract The study dealt with the assessment of the impact of deforestation on tropical soil through a comparative analysis of physicochemical and microbiological parameters of natural forest and a deforested barren site. With significant decline in clay, texturally the soil of the deforested ba
