Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study on Potentiality of Carbon Storage and CO2 Uptake in the Biomass and Soil of Coppice StandA. Khademi, S. Babaei, A. MatajiProblem statement: Enhancing carbon storage in terrestrial ecosystems, especially in the forests, is a key factor in maintaining the atmosphere's carbon balance. With regard to the importance of forest in carbon sequestration, this study attempted to investigate the carbon storage potential and CO2 uptake in oak coppice stand. Approach: After combining slope, aspect and hypsometric maps, the number of land … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Quick Method for Metarhizium anisopliae Isolation from Cultural SoilsM. A. Tajick Ghanbary, A. Asgharzadeh, A. R. Hadizadeh, M. Mohammadi SharifProblem statement: Fungi are one of the most active members in biological community of cultural soils. Many saprophyte and facultative parasitic fungi live in soil. Metarhizium anisopliae, one of the most famous soil inhabitant entomopathogens has a virulence potential on plant and animal pests. Approach: Introducing a new method for its isolation from soil was an applied method to find … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,878 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistogram of Intensity Feature Extraction for Automatic Plastic Bottle Recycling System Using Machine VisionSuzaimah Ramli, Mohd Marzuki Mustafa, Aini Hussain, Dzuraidah Abdul WahabCurrently, many recycling activities adopt manual sorting for plastic recycling that relies on plant personnel who visually identify and pick plastic bottles as they travel along the conveyor belt. These bottles are then sorted into the respective containers. Manual sorting may not be a suitable option for recycling facilities of high throughput. It has also been noted that the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Edge Efficient and Lightweight Hybrid CNN Vision Transformer Network With CBAM for IoT Based Plant Disease DetectionNyabeye Pangop Doris-Khöler, Kengni Ngangmo OlgaDetecting crop disease early enough to act on it remains a bottleneck for smallholder and precision farming alike, particularly when diagnosis depends on manual inspection or lab analysis that cannot keep pace with an outbreak. We present AgriViTNet, a compact CNN-Vision Transformer hybrid built for exactly this constraint: It extracts local texture cues through convolution, relates them across the whole … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 9 · 20 Sep 2026 · 586 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMorphological Database and Quantification of Liberica Coffee Beans Using a Hybrid CNN ModelDioneces O. Alimoren, Francis G. Balazon, Jonnah R. Melo et al.Traditional evaluation of Liberica coffee (Kapeng Barako) in Batangas is commonly performed through manual visual inspection and sensory judgment, which are slow, subjective, and difficult to reproduce across farms, buyers, and grading personnel. These limitations can lead to inconsistent quality classification, weak traceability, and reduced bargaining power for local producers. This study develops and validates a web-based morphological analysis system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2026 · 1,344 accessesView PDFCite
