Field and laboratory studies were conducted on volcanic ash from Yakima, Moses Lake, Spokane, Washington, and Moscow, Idaho, three weeks after the May 18, 1980, eruption of Mt. St. Helens in southwestern Washington. These studies examined 1) the chemical, physical, and water retentivity properties of the ash, 2) the effect of the ash upon germination and emergence of crested wheatgrass and cheatgrass, 3) the impact of ash upon in vitro digestion of common forages fed to cattle and the rate-of-passage of ash in steers, and 4) the influence of the ash layer on water infiltration into a range soil and the amount of sediments in the runoff water. In addition to the above short term studies, small field plots of various ash treatments were initiated... |

Fossil fuel burning at the present rate, will double atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in this century, raising air temperature 1.5 to 5 °C. Sequestering carbon (C) in soil can reduce atmospheric CO2 concentration. We measured inorganic and organic C in southern Idaho soils having long term land use histories of native sagebrush vegetation (NSB), irrigated moldboard plowed crops (IMP), irrigated conservation- (chisel) tilled crops (ICT) and irrigated pasture systems (IP). Soil Organic C (SOC) decreased in the order IP>ICT>NSB>IMP. We used our findings to estimate potential amounts of organic C sequestered if irrigated agriculture expanded. If irrigated agricultural land was expanded by10°/0 worldwide and NSB was converted to ICT, 2.5 x 10... |
