Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Organic Based N Fertilizer on Dry Matter (Zea mays L.), Ammonium and Nitrate Recovery in an Acid Soil of Sarawak, MalaysiaSusilawati Kasim, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid et al.Problem statement: Exchangeable ammonium (NH4+) could be recovered by humic and fulvic acids from humic substances. The ability of these acids in fixing or retaining NH4+ has been demonstrated in many findings and reports. Both acids could affect the plant growth, nutrients uptake by enhancing photosynthesis rate and root growth among others. Thus, in this study, the effect of both … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 8,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,202 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalcium-sorbitol Chelating Technology and Application in PotatoesPengchao Li, Cunzhen Geng, Lingyu Li et al.Researches on low-molecular organic compounds are concentrated in amino acid and Humic acid chelating fertilizer, but few in sorbitol chelated calcium. In this study, selecting sorbitol as chelating agent, the technological conditions of chelating sorbitol with calcium and the effect of sorbitol chelated calcium on potato were studied. The impact factors on the stability of the fertilizer were investigated, including … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 9,087 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecognizing Dissolved Organic Matter with an Improved Fluorescence Regional Integral MethodZhang Jianguo, Wang Xinyi, Liu Xiaoman et al.The aim of this paper was to study transformations of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in marl rock groundwater. To achieve this, we carried out a series of soil column experiments, using a DOM solution as the water sample and marl rock as the testing rock sample. Three-Dimensional Excitation-Emission Matrix Spectra (3DEEMS) were generated for DOM solutions and the Analytic Hierarchy … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2019 · 7,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Growth Promoting Activity of Actinomycetes Isolated from Soybean RhizosphereAris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Resti Afrista et al.Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is considered as the biological agent for improving plant growth. One Group of PGPR that have an important role in growth promoting of plant is Actinomycetes. The objective of this study was to isolate and screen Actinomycetes isolated from soybean rhizosphere as growth promoter of soybean in vitro. Fifty-three Actinomycetes isolates have successfully been isolated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2019 · 14,604 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractComparison of Selected Soil Chemical Properties of Two Different Mangrove Forests in SarawakEmpi Rambok, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Despite few studies of forest health and environmental conditions of mangrove forest in Sarawak, the data was not sufficient to facilitate baseline data and direct comparison of mangrove forest health obtained for different location of mangrove forest in Sarawak. On this regard, determination of contemporary mangrove soil condition was essential to addressing mangrove forest for forest health, carbon … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 9,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Logging Operation on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Since heavy machinery are used in the logging operation activity for extracting the logs on sensitive forest site with peat soil, environment destruction should be the other concern during its processes especially on its important function as soil carbon storage. The objective of this study was to determine whether logging operation affect soil carbon storage of a tropical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReduction of Isolation Period of Coal Humic AcidsClaudia Hui Hui Chen, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: The isolation of Humic Acids (HA) from coal is laborious, costly and time consuming. The extraction and fractionation periods of HA vary from 4 h to 7 days. Fractionation period ranges from 12-24 h. However, most studies use 24 h as extraction period and also 24 h as fractionation period. This study was conducted to investigate whether the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Ammonia Loss from Urea by Mixing with Humic and Fulvic Acids Isolated from CoalAmeera Abdul Reeza, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Nik Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem statement: Ammonia volatilization is a major pathway for nitrogen loss from surface applied urea. While all top-dressed ammonia and ammonium based N fertilizers can volatilize, the potential loss is greatest with urea and fluids containing urea. As much as 20-50% of N applied to soils is lost through volatilization alone. Thus, the objective of this laboratory study was to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,897 accessesView PDFCite
