Saltwater intrusion from sea level rise and tidal flooding is increasing soil salinity risks in coastal farm fields (Figure 1). Soil salinity is related to the presence of soluble salts and cations ...

Salts are compounds formed when positively charged cations such as sodium (Na⁺), calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺) and potassium (K⁺) combine with negatively ...

Soil salinity threatens global farmland, but a new Engineering study offers a sustainable solution. Researchers found that ...

A new study published in Engineering demonstrates that applying halotolerant plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) via drip irrigation during the ...
