Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Erosion Prediction Based on Land Use Changes (A Case in Neka Watershed)Karim Solaimani, Saeid Modallaldoust, Sedigheh LotfiProblem statement: Land use change has transformed a vast part of the natural landscapes of the developing world for the last 50 years. Land is a fundamental factor of production and though much of the course of human history, it has been tightly coupled with economic growth. Soil erosion by water is one of the most important land degradation processes … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,447 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Satellite Data to Study the Impact of Land-Cover/Land-Use Change in Madison County AlabamaTomas Ayala-Silva, Garry Gordon, Robert HeathThe monitoring of land/use land cover changes along the northern part of Madison County Alabama are essential for the developers, planners, policy makers and management of government, public and private organizations. Remote sensing was used to analyze and study land-use/land-cover use changes impact on the environment of Madison County Alabama. This study area was selected because it is one of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrack Growth in Concrete Gravity Dams Based on Discrete Crack MethodA.R. Lohrasbi, R. AttarnejadSeepage is the most parameter in water management safety and in stable agricultural. This seepage is passed through the cracks that are present to some degree in hydraulic structures. They may exist as basic defects in the constituent materials or may be induced in construction or during service life. To avoid such failure in concrete dams, safety would be an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Case Study of River Rehabilitation for Fish in Northern Italy: The Panaro River ProjectClaudio Comoglio, Enrico Pini Prato, Mauro Ferri, Massimiliano GianaroliThe restoration of longitudinal connectivity of a watercourse altered by man-made obstacles is a key issue for the protection and safeguard of freshwater ecosystems and the construction of fish passes constitutes a relevant ad hoc measure. However, in many countries, like Italy, there is still not an adequate technical-scientific background and experience in this field and therefore several migratory species … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Reservoir Operation Using Combined Genetic Algorithm and Wavelet Transform MethodL. Ebrahimi, G.A. Barani, H. EbrahimiDams construction are high cost projects, and therefore, optimal using of reservoir storages behind dams is an important task in water resources management. In last decades, various optimization techniques have been used for reservoir operation. Among the new methods, Genetic Algorithm (GA) and wavelet transform (WT) have been widely used in recent years. In this study, GA as well as … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,512 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Levan by Bacillus licheniformis for Use as a Soil Sealant in Earthen Manure Storage StructuresAbdel E. Ghaly, F. Arab, N.S. Mahmoud, J. HigginsManure application is not permitted on frozen land in Canada and therefore, manure management and storage are the primary issues facing the agri-food industry. Low-cost, effective and environmentally safe earthen manure storage (EMS) facilities will lower costs and help make the livestock industry more competitive and efficient. The goal of this study was to develop a biological sealing technology for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDietary Management Strategies to Mitigate Decreased Feed Intake Associated with Terminal Implant Administration in Finishing Beef SteersAlexandria Kelly, Warren Rusche, Forest Francis et al.Re-implanting with a terminal implant often reduces subsequent dry matter intake (DMI). Crossbred steers (n = 27, initial body weight = 385 ± 30.8 kg) were used to assess the effects of locomotion immediately after terminal implantation and increased forage inclusion 7-d post-implantation on feed and water intake, rumination, and activity. Steers were implanted with 100 mg trenbolone acetate and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2024 · 4,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSolutions to Managing Drought and Reducing DemandsSaeid Eslamian, Saleh Tarkesh Esfahani, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariConserving and saving water during droughts need a special attitude and great attention. Because according to a variety of studies conducted, nowadays our demand and need for water far exceed the amount of water resources available in different areas. As a result, in order to cope with this crisis, it is necessary to use water-recycling systems, reduce demands, employ optimal … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2020 · 6,973 accessesView PDFCite
