6.1 Papers in Scientific Refereed Journals

After I completed my official secondment term (1984-1989) from King Saud University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and returned to the Universityof Khartoum in 1989, I decided to support the National Research System by initiating the establishment of national scientific refereed Journals in the area and publishing in these Journals. From that time on I published all my research in the two Journal which I initiated in the Faculty of Agriculture and UNESCO Chair of Desertification Studies.
