”Oxygen deficiency in the rooting zone occurs under waterlogging conditions, the lack of O2 can severely damage the root” (Drew, 1997) .Then it focuses on five plant species of global interest or importance, Barley, Tomatoes, Soy Bean, Cotton and Rice, showing the effect of waterlogging on each, quoting journals and experiments done by fellow scientist .The topic of research into waterlogging is vast, with thousands of journals and experiments on countless plant species, so I’m focusing on just five.to Waterlogging.Cotton: ”Waterlogging of cotton has been reported to cause a reduction in root growth and nutrient uptake (Letey et al., 1962; Huck, 1970; Hocking et al., 1987), leaf area and photosynthesis (Hodgson, 1982; Meyer et al., 1987;...

The peak isn’t really used for anything, and the peaks will decrease and cause flooding in local areas due to human activity.Solifluction adds detail to the terrain underfoot.Closed-system pingos, as in the Mackenzie Delta region, typically form in recently drained lake basins or old drainage channels, and are the result of hydrostatic pressures that develop as unfrozen saturated sediment progressively freezes.Solifluction lobe = Solifluction is the slow down slope movement of waterlogged soil.Small-scale, active landforms include lobes and sheets and turf-banked terraces.

Anaerobic respiration is more rapid than aerobic respiration.Such places include deep water, soil, and the digestive tracts of animals such as humans.If the roots of a plant get waterlogged they start to run out of oxygen too.There are exceptions, such as germinating seeds planted underground and certain species of fungi.It is not as efficient, since the glucose molecule does not break down completely, but rather changes into ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide and creates only two molecules of energy, or adenosine triphosphate.

On the Kennebec River, a free ferry is the official and historical route and is provided at designated hours from late May through mid-October.This stretch was once known as "the 100-mile wilderness," a term that is a misnomer especially in light of the phenomenal increase in use since the early 1990s and the recent advent of re-supply points.September is peak foliage but late September can be wintry, especially at higher elevations.Spring runoff from snowmelt will wash away any primitive bridge.In May and sometimes June snow still lingers; in June black flies torment hikers and waterlogged trails are muddy and easily damaged.

Inaccurate use of the BDH kit may have caused some pH values to be incorrect.The productivity of oak trees and vegetation in general is dependant on soil type.The catena concept looks at individual sections of the hillside as open systems with inputs, throughputs and outputs that determine the soil types found there.An extension could be carried out and the east facing hillside could be sampled at different times of year to see how vegetation and soil properties may vary.This hillside is made of granophyre rock and so therefore has a uniform geology, meaning that the effect the Catena concept has on soils can be studied.

Agriculture, in which irrigation systems are utilized, is especially prone to salinization with approximately half of the irrigation systems globally affected by salinization, alkalization or waterlogging (Munns, 2002).Irrigation can also raise water tables, lead to waterlogging, and cause evaporation directly from the water table, increasing solute concentration in the soil (Van Weert, Van der Gun, & Reckman, 2009).Salinization of soils and water in Pakistan are a result of: natural climatic characteristics, such as high evaporation, geological conditions and the dissolution of salt bearing strata, waterlogging, intensive irrigation, poor drainage, salinity ingress, inefficient irrigation and inappropriate use of low quality groundw...

Other climatic factors are influenced by forest cover.It also influences the hydrologic cycle on the ground surface and maintains the production of biomass and vegetation.Afforestation will affect the water cycle in a positive way by helping areas with low rainfall have more precipitation for its local crops etc.It also affects salinity by transpiring water it helps keep the water table well below the surface and prevents salinisation from occurring.The deep roots can reach deep down to find the groundwater and will transport its up from the ground and up into the atmosphere as part of the hydrological cycle.
