Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Tropical Peat Swamp Forest Clearing on Soil Carbon StorageAhmad Shukri Mat Nuri, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidAbstract: Problem Statement: Forest clearing in Tropical Peat Swamp Forest (TPSF) will affect forest soil carbon storage. Thus this study is essential to determine whether the effect of clearing of forest does to the nature of soil forest concentrating on soil carbon storage. The objectives of this study were to analyze carbon storage values in logged and clear cut TPSF … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 8,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality of Potable Water in KuwaitFawzia M. Al-Ruwaih, Jasem M. Alhumoud, Sara M. Al-MutairiProblem statement: Kuwait is an arid country with limited natural water resources. As such, Kuwait produces its drinking water using the Multi-Stage-Flash method (MSF) in distillation plants to produce distilled water from sea water. The distilled water is blended with the brackish groundwater in different blending ratios, to produce drinking water, as recommended by World Health Organization (WHO). Approach: The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,341 accessesView PDFCite
