Soil can be made unproductive by salinification (which is often the result of prolonged irrigation) or by depletion of needed mineral content (after prolonged farming, without fertilization).
humans can have things on their shoes and leave it on the ground to make soil
Humans change the abiotic factors in their habitat in various ways. Building structures and tilling the soil are the most common ways.
There are many ways how humans can contribute to floods...one way could be cutting down trees. Trees help control floods, without trees...the space is cleared and the flood is faster, with soil (can also make an ugly mudslide/flood)
he dicovered ways to make soil more fertile
Humans harm soil and cause soil pollution through activities like improper disposal of waste, use of chemicals in agriculture, industrial activities, and deforestation. These practices can lead to soil erosion, depletion of nutrients, contamination by heavy metals and chemicals, and loss of soil biodiversity, affecting its ability to support plant growth and sustain ecosystems.
Humans use sphagnum moss in several ways, including as a natural gardening substrate for potting and soil amendment due to its water retention and aeration properties. It is also utilized in the production of peat, which serves as a fuel source and soil conditioner. Additionally, sphagnum has applications in the horticultural industry for moisture control and as an organic mulch.
Humans stabilize mountainsides by constructing retaining walls, planting vegetation to reinforce soil, and installing rock bolts to prevent rockfall and erosion.
Salinity is a huge problem for farmers because they can damage there production by many ways then one. Excess salt in the soil can absorb water from the soil leaving plants with very little of it affecting their health, they can also damage roots by there sharp edges, they can even leave the land completely unproductive permanently. Due to which it is necessary to keep a close watch on the salinity of the land.
bacterias are useful for humans as they are used to make injections, bread
Soil nitrates are replaced in various ways. One of the most common ways to replace soil nitrate is by suing synthetic fertilizers.
Yes, fungi are useful to humans in many ways. They are essential for decomposition, nutrient recycling, and soil health. Fungi are also used in food production (e.g., baking, brewing, and fermentation), medicine (e.g., antibiotics and drug production), and bioremediation to clean up contaminated environments.
Humans misuse land in various ways, including deforestation for agriculture and urban development, which leads to habitat loss and biodiversity decline. Overgrazing by livestock can degrade grasslands and lead to soil erosion. Urban sprawl consumes natural landscapes, disrupting ecosystems and contributing to pollution. Additionally, improper waste disposal and industrial activities can contaminate soil and water resources, further harming the environment.
