## Abstract This study aimed to determine microbial biomass carbon and microbial abundance immediately after, and two years after, forest soil erosion, so as to estimate the degree of damage, including the rate of recovery of microorganisms, in each area. It also aimed to determine the community di

## 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
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
