Effect of different temperature on burning peat soil / Amir Nur Rahim Abd Aziz

Smoldering wildfires propagate slowly through surface of organic layers of the soil and severely affect the soil, producing physical, chemical and biological changes. These effects are caused by the prolonged heating and the large loss of soil mass and chemical properties are documented in the liter...
