英文摘要 | Agricultural soils in semi-arid regions have frequently been degraded due to adverse climatic conditions, organic matter depletion, and poor farming practices.To enhance soil quality, this study examines the reuse of sewage sludge (SS)as an available source of organic matter in a typical Mediterranean sandyloam soil.Accordingly, we studied the cumulative effect of two annual applications of 40, 80 and 120 tons of sludge per ha on soil quality in absence of vegetation.The dose-dependent improvement of organic matter content was the most significant event that reflected sludge application rates, and consequently influenced other soil properties.Accordingly, soil structural stability increased by 13.3%, 28.8% and 59.4% for treatments SS-40, SS-80 and SS-120 respectively as compared to unamended control.Structural stability improvement was also confirmed by the dose-dependent variation of other edaphic factors including calcium content, the microbial quotient as well as Welt and C:N ratios.These parameters are involved in cementing soil aggregates by cation bridging, the formation of microbial mucilage, and clay-humic complexes.Soil magnetic susceptibility (SMS)was measured in situ as a possible rapid tool to evaluate soil condition.SMS showed significant correlation with sludge dose and stability amelioration testifying to the aggregation role that can play Al_2O_3 and particularly Fe_2O_3 minerals added by the hematite-rich sludge.Besides, analytical results and field observations revealed no trends of soil salinization or acidification by excessive sludge amounts.By avoiding the rhizosphere effect, outcomes could reflect the resilience and intrinsic capacity of the soil to cope with excessive sludge loads. |
