Carbon and nitrogen emissions from stored manure and cropped fields in irrigated mountain oases of Oman
(Kassel University Press, 2010)
Little is known about gaseous carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) emissions from traditional terrace agriculture in irrigated high mountain agroecosystems of the subtropics. In an effort towards filling this knowledge gap measurements of carbon dioxide (CO_2), methane (CH_4), ammonia (NH_3) and dinitrous oxide (N_2O) were taken with a mobile photoacoustic infrared multi-gas monitor on manure-filled PE-fibre storage bags and on flood-irrigated untilled and tilled fields in three mountain oases of the northen Omani Al Jabal ...

Growth and yield of groundnut, sesame and roselle in an Acacia senegal agroforestry system in North Kordofan, Sudan
(Kassel University Press, 2010)
A field experiment was conducted under rainfed conditions in western Sudan at El-Obeid Research Farm and Eldemokeya Forest Reserve, North Kordofan State, during the growing seasons 2004/05 and 2005/06. The main objective was to investigate the soil physical and chemical properties and yield of groundnut (Arachis hypogea), sesame (Sesamum indicum) and roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) of an Acacia senegal agroforestry system in comparison with the sole cropping system. Data were recorded for soil physical and chemical ...

Pharmaceutical consumption and residuals potentially relevant to nutrient cycling in Greater Accra, Ghana
(Kassel University Press, 2010)
Recycling nutrients form sanitary wastes back into agricultural ecosystems offers an option to alleviate soil depletion in regions where the use of mineral fertiliser is limited. Exemplary nutrient and water cycling approaches, including collection, treatment and use of human urine, are established at Valley View University (VVU) in Greater Accra, Ghana.
Concerns have been recently raised in regard to fate and impact of pharmaceutical residues in soils and interlinked environment. To evaluate in how far emerging ...

Zur Sozialstruktur germanischer Gesellschaften auf der Grundlage der antiken Schriftquellen
(Burmeister, Stefan (u.a.) (Hrsg.), 2010)
Im Zentrum der folgenden Ausführungen steht die Auseinandersetzung mit den Aussagemöglichkeiten der historischen Schriftquellen hinsichtlich der soziopolitischen Strukturen der germanischen Gesellschaft. Dabei sind zunächst einige in diesem Kontext bedeutende Elemente notwendiger Quellenkritik zu behandeln, ehe dann auf das Verhältnis zwischen historischem und archäologischem Quellenmaterial sowie die Möglichkeiten, diese aufeinander zu beziehen, eingegangen wird.
