Foliar treatment with citrates, particularly in the form of nanoparticles, is crucial for mitigating damage and enhancing plant physiology and metabolism during stress. This study is the first to examine the effects of foliar spraying with nanoparticle-based citric acid (n-CA) and conventional citric acid (c-CA) during the 2023 and 2024 seasons. It examined their impact on physiology, osmo-stress relievers, total antioxidant a...

The Soft soil formations are considered huge challenge for geotechnical engineers worldwide. Soft clay soil usually appears in coastal areas. This paper presents a field case study where the extended soft clay layers were a huge geotechnical challenge. The executed site investigation consists of boreholes and cone penetration tests (CPTu). The upper soft clay extends to depths more than 30m. Many field and laboratory tests wer...
