Some soils have an organic horizon ( O ) on the surface, but this horizon can also be buried.

* Some Ukiah area soils are likely to contain naturally occurring asbestos ( NOA ), as do many parts of California.

Some plants use it for nitrogen fixation, thus it may need to be added to some soils before seeding legumes.

Some common farming practices ( such as liming acid soils ) contribute to widespread occurrence of micronutrient deficiencies in crops by decreasing the availability of the micronutrients present in the soil.

Some of the research areas that the CFS is involved in include ; forest fire, climate change, silviculture, soils, insects and disease, remote sensing and forest management.

Some agricultural practices have led to organically and chemically impoverished soils.

Some experts, such as Jancis Robinson, have speculated that Zinfandel and Sauvignon blanc may eventually prove themselves to be best suited to the climate and soils of the Alexander Valley.

Some studies have indicated that reclaimed lands actually provide a more consistent baseflow because the sandier soils of the reclaimed land provide faster baseflow, while the clay provides a slower steady flow, creating more flow during dry periods than native land.

Some of the new technical methods employed in the construction of this section, included passing from deep alignment to shallow in water-carrying soils.

Some government scientists say privately that the figure probably is closer to 80 megatons, and that the full 50-megaton bomb that Khrushchev mentioned may still be detonated.

Some areas may provide archeological values such as ancient Indian village sites or hunting areas, caves, artifacts, etcetera.

Some shrubs may be of good landscaping value, other areas of brush may need to be cleared.

-- Some areas may already have been improved and contain buildings, roads, utilities, cleared land, etcetera which may raise the cost of the site.

Some of these speculations may have some merit, others are somewhat ambiguous.

Some cases in evidence of the use of roleplaying for analysis may help explain the procedure.

Some of this may prove to be true, or even considerable of it, whether by genetic ramification or by diffusion and coalescence.

Some mediums speak in practical, down-to-earth terms, while others may stress the spiritual.

Some excellent filmstrips with recordings and motion pictures may be secured from your denominational headquarters to enrich the class session.

Some scholars point to a character from the Babylonian cuneiform which may have been derived from a representation of the abacus.

Some may suggest that it is probably advisable to use mouthwash at least an hour after brushing with toothpaste when the toothpaste contains sodium lauryl sulfate, since the anionic compounds in the SLS toothpaste can deactivate cationic agents present in the mouthrinse.

Some jurisdictions hold this as an absolute right, and in its absence, a sentence may potentially be overturned, with the result that a new sentencing hearing must be held.

Some flowers are functionally staminate ( where a pistil may be present but has no ovules capable of being fertilized ) while others are functionally pistillate ( where stamens are present but their anthers do not produce viable pollen ).

Some tall cylinders are considered ceremonial vessels, while narrow-necked jars may have been used for liquids.

Some cultural differences may be based on linear traditions, on teaching from one generation or “ school ” to another.
