Those sources are very huge to lose.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Reclamation<\/h4>\n<p>It is the process of converting soil from unproductive status to productive one.

They include engineering, mechanics, irrigation, architecture and soil, electricity and highways and several agriculture sciences.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h5>Human Resources<\/h5>\n<p>The one who helps in reclamation such as engineers, and highly trained technicians, to get high results with low costs.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h5>Weather<\/h5>\n<p>The environment also plays an important role in reclamation through the following:<\/p>\n<ol type=\"a\">\n<li>Rain<\/li>\n<li>Temperature &amp; Humidity<\/li>\n<li>Solar Radiation<\/li>\n<li>Wind<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Al Azhar\u2019s 14th International Conference on: Engineering, Architecture and Technology <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-10205\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ierek.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/Al-Azhar-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Al-Azhar\" width=\"618\" height=\"386\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are eager to know more about Engineering, Architecture and Technology, Luckily IEREK is organizing Al Azhar\u2019s 14th International Conference on: Engineering, Architecture and Technology to be held in <strong>Cairo<\/strong> at<strong> 12 December \/ 14 December 2017<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Critical Topics will be exposed during this conference as following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Civil Engineering<\/li>\n<li>Electrical Engineering<\/li>\n<li>Systems and Computers Engineering<\/li>\n<li>Mining Engineering<\/li>\n<li>Petroleum Engineering<\/li>\n<li>Mathematics and Physics<\/li>\n<li>Mechanical Engineering<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Energy resources<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Architectural Engineering<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ierek.com\/events\/GU4th\">City and Regional Planning<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more instant &amp; latest news about Al Azhar\u2019s 14th International Conference, kindly visit and register in: \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/b2zpXo\">https:\/\/goo.gl\/b2zpXo<\/a><br \/>\ncontact us on: <a href=\"mailto:aeic@ierek.com\">aeic@ierek.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deserts exist all over the world on a total area of 45 million km2 with about 33% of the entire land\u2019s surface area.
