Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemperature Trends and Distribution in the Arabian PeninsulaMohammad N. ElNesr, Majed M. Abu-Zreig, Abdurrahman A. AlazbaProblem statement: Temperature trend’s investigation is important for proper water resources management and urban planning. This study aims to investigate trends and distribution of temperature in the past thirty years for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), which represents about 86% of the Arabian Peninsula’s area. Approach: The trend in the temperature time series, including the recorded maximum, average and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 9,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Soil Characteristics in Low Flows RegionalizationPaolo Vezza, Claudio Comoglio, Alberto Viglione, Maurizio RossoProblem statement: For the purpose of low flows regionalization, relevant issue for water resources management like environmental flows requirements definition, this study focused on the controls on the seasonal and spatial variability of q95 (i.e., the specific discharge that was exceeded on 95% of all the time) with particular reference to the role of soil characteristics, that, like soil infiltration … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Management of Effluents from Small Piggery Farms in MexicoJ.L. de Victorica-Almeida, M. Galván-García, R. Ayala-RuizIn Mexico, pig farming is the third most important livestock activity due to its contribution to the total meat production. However, it is estimated that around 38% of pig farms dispose their wastewaters without any treatment directly into the nation’s water bodies, which in turn has a severe impact in the environment. One reason for not treating is the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Progress in Self-Cleaning Materials with Different Suitable ApplicationsSiavash Hosseinpour Chermahini, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid Eslamian, Vijay P. SinghSelf-cleaning properties have received significant attention for the importance of their potential. Coatings at Nano-scales offer possibilities of using materials for self-cleaning surfaces. Recent efforts have begun to focus on the kinds of materials including metals, semiconductors and polymers. Such materials can have enormous potential in only a few applications. Moreover, the production of these materials requires high costs with … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 25 Apr 2018 · 9,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Analysis of Bipolar Plate for 500w Pem Fuel Cell StackA. Kalaiyarasan, C. Srinivasan, S. SundaramThe PEM Fuel Cell (PEMFC) performance depends on the operating parameters like temperature, pressure, stoichiometric ratio of reactants, relative humidity, back pressure on anode and cathode flow channels, and the design parameters like rib width to channel width (L:C), channel depth, shape of the flow channel and number of pass on the flow channel. The voltage and power produced by … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2018 · 7,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of the Drainage Slope Experimental Study on the Manning Roughness CoefficientKaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Hossein Gholami, Shahide Dehghan, Morteza SoltaniIt was Determined the current persistence components were significant in hydraulic designs of highland zone with sharp slopes. It was defined to examine the consequence of gradient, rapidity, depth and dimension of coarseness on the manning coarseness factor in this superficial river area. This is an investigational education about manning coarseness defined for highland zones protected by elements in three … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2021 · 6,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Acclimatization of Pelagic Fish Species Juveniles in a Closed Environment: An Atlantic Horse Mackerel Case StudyCharles Odilichukwu R. Okpala, Giacomo Sardo, Sergio VitaleUnderstanding how fish species acclimatize to a new environment may help to improve aquatic/fisheries resource management. Further, baseline information specific to behavior patterns of (pelagic) fish species juveniles particularly during acclimatization appears unreported to best of our knowledge. Therefore, the current study was goaled to examine the acclimatization of pelagic fish species juveniles in a closed environment using Trachurus trachurus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 20 Jul 2017 · 7,807 accessesView PDFCite
