Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTREND ANALYSIS OF MONTHLY RAINFALL DATA IN CENTRAL ZONETelemu KassileProper trend analysis of rainfall data is necessary for social and economic planning especially in the tropics where rainfall is a major limiting factor for crop production. In spite of the growing number of studies on climatic variables including rainfall in recent years, in the context of Tanzania little is known as to whether or not the observed time trend … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPalynological Studies of Sediments from North Chioma-3 Well, Niger Delta and its Palaeoenvironmental InterpretationsOlugbenga Ebenezer Ige, Kalyani Datta, Kanak Sahai, Krishna Kumar RawatProblem statement: The Niger Delta Nigeria stands among the world's best-studies delta complexes but its superficial deposits are among the poorest known publicity. In spite of continuous oil prospecting production in the area, there is still a paucity of published information and data on the palynology of the Niger Delta. This study aimed at reconstructing the palaeoenvironments of the Niger … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Thermal Comfort in Respect to Building Height in a High-Density City in the TropicsAnisha Noori Kakon, Mishima Nobuo, Shoichi Kojima, Taguchi YokoProblem statement: The significance of urban design and planning in the tropics lies mostly on its climatic and regional concerns. Among many design parameters, building height is an important parameter which affects thermal climate in the city considerably. This study investigated the effect of building height on outdoor thermal comfort during the daytime in summer in Dhaka, Bangladesh which is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProteins polymorphism of some populations of Lygeum spartum L. in AlgeriaAbderrezak Djabeur, Meriem Kaid-Harche, Douadi KhelifiLygeum spartum L. represent a natural barrier in the Algerian high plateaus against the advances of sand and turning into a desert. This species has two levels of ploïdy (diploïd cytotype 2n = 16 and polyploidy cytotype 2n = 40). Protein profile of several populations of this species have inter and intra specific variability. The polymorphic bands observed in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistribution of Total Mercury in the Sedimentary Environment in Lake Ahémé, Southern Benin (West Africa)Julien Gnonlonfoun Adounkpe, N. B. Nadia Azon, Hermione W. Degila, Peace HounkpeThis study focuses on the spatio-temporal assessment of mercury pollution of the sedimentary environment of Lake Ahémé in southwestern Benin Republic. Sediment samples were taken from 32 sites in July 2018 and then in December 2019, covering the two major climatic seasons of the southern area of the country. Sampling was done according to a grid design of the entire … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 5 · 26 Dec 2021 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEMPIRICAL DETERMINATION OF THE AVERAGE ANNUAL RUNOFF COEFFICIENT IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREAGiovanni Grillone, Giorgio Baiamonte, Francesco D’AsaroRunoff estimation in ungauged basin is a challenge for the hydrological engineers and planners. For any hydrological study on an ungauged basin, a methodology has to be appropriately selected for the determination of runoff at its outlet. Several methods have been used to estimate the basin runoff production. In this study the empirical Kennessey method to determine average annual runoff … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 5 Dec 2013 · 8,225 accessesView PDFCite
