Abstract

CEC of the soil is the exchange sites of organic and inorganic soil colloids. Modeling and Estimation of CEC is a useful indicator for fertility. The new alternative approaches for estimating CEC are indirect methods based on intelligent models. In this research in order to estimate CEC, 485 soil samples were prepared from two regions, chaparsar (Mazandaran in northern Iran) and Bostanabad (North of West Azarbaijan, Iran).In this paper introduces the application of genetic programming. Input parameters that are percent Clay, Organic Carbon and Silt, evaluate using genetic programming, neural network and Neural Inference Systems-Fuzzy models. The results indicate a good ability to intelligent models for CEC Estimation According to indices used in this study. Genetic programming model with a root mean square error of 1.78 and coefficient of determination 0.95 compared to other models have been more efficient and is able to provide satisfactory results, Also are the explicit solutions that reflect the relationship between input an output variable, was presented based on genetic programming. This preferred the genetic programming model adds the other models. Stepwise regression analysis to determine the contribution of each of the parameters indicated in the CEC that organic materials having Most coefficient of variation of 84% is justified CEC and clay and silt, respectively, with a correlation coefficient of 10% and 6% respectively.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of solutes and water quality on evaporation amount and rate in two sandy and clayey soils. Soil samples containing aggregates and sand particles with diameters ranging from 0.5 to 1 millimeter were collected. Six columns were prepared during the experiment; three columns were filled with sandy soil and three with aggregated soil, each measuring 60 cm in height and 15.5 cm in inner diameter. One reference column was filled with distilled water. A saturated calcium sulfate solution was added to two columns, a 0.01 molar calcium chloride solution was added to two other columns, and distilled water was added to the remaining two. The amount of water lost through evaporation was recorded every 8 to 12 hours by weighing the columns. After approximately 130 days, the columns were sectioned, allowing for the establishment of moisture and solute concentration profiles for each soil column. The results indicated that the first and second stages of evaporation were distinguishable in sandy soil, whereas in clayey soil (aggregated soil), only the first stage of evaporation occurred due to the gradual transfer of water and the continuous hydraulic connection from the surface to the water table. The presence and type of solutes affected the evaporation rate and moisture profile, reducing evaporation and increasing water retention in deeper soil layers. Hydraulic connectivity (calcium sulfate > calcium chloride > distilled water) and the resulting capillary rise of and supply of evaporated water from higher layers caused a greater evaporation rate in the calcium sulfate compared to the calcium chloride and distilled water treatments in both soil types. Additionally, the formation of a salt crust on the soil surface due to solutes disrupted the hydraulic connection with the surface, resulting in decreased evaporation rates and cumulative evaporation.
