Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Temporal Analysis of Temperature Trend and its Possible Effects on Water Resources and Water Uses in Climatic Zones of Iran's Zayandehrud River BasinAli Hasantabar-Amiri, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Ali Heidarian et al.The minimum, moderate and maximum temperature trends at seasonal time scale in 5 climatic zones using 37 meteorological stations in Zayandehrud river basin was studied regionally and the relationship to water resources, water uses of each zone and its possible effects were determined. The results showed that the majority of the climatic zones will have an increasing trend in spring, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2019 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Environmental Change on Human Health: A Descriptive Economic AnalysisUttam Paudel, Shiva Raj Adhikari, Krishna Prasad PantEnvironmental dilapidation in developing countries upsurges the incidence of human diseases leading to societal impoverishment in the disease rampant areas. Literatures on economic evaluation of effects of environmental changes on human health are scanty. This paper descriptively reconnoiters major environmental changes, spread of diseases, associated household cost including health costs and finally benefits from the improvement of environment through household … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 7 Jan 2019 · 8,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAPPLYING SEASONAL CLIMATE TRENDS TO AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN TANJUNG KARANG, MALAYSIAMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Lee Qiao Yun, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin et al.The North West Selangor Integrated Agriculture Development Agency (NWS-IADA) is the most productive agricultural part in Selangor, Malaysia. This is partly because of the inherent high fertility of the soils and the moderate variable climate. However, with increasing global concern about climate impacts, this article examines relative importance of climate influences on the paddy production rate over 28 years (1980-2008). … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2014 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Phosphorus Application with Avail on Growth and Yield of Winter Wheat in Southeastern Coastal PlainsPawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) application with Avail may affect plant growth and grain yields of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under dryland conditions. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two P application rates (45 and 90 kg ha-1) with and without Avail polymer on growth and yields of dryland winter wheat near Blackville, SC from 2010 to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 16 Sep 2013 · 7,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis on 16-Channels Wavelength Division Multiplexing in Free Space Optical Transmission under Tropical Regions EnvironmentSalasiah Hitam, Siti Norziela Suhaimi, Ahmad Shukri Mohd Noor et al.Problem statement: Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising technique for meeting the growing demand for increased bandwidth and various types of services in the optical access network. For wide area or metropolitan networks, fibers are deployed to provide huge bandwidth. In access networks, the fiber-to-the-home will partially solve the last mile problem. However, some environmentally sensitive area such as housing areas, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2011 · 10,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorn (Zea Mays L.) Plant Characteristics and Grain Yield Response to N Fertilization Programs in No-Tillage SystemKesi Liu, Pawel WiatrakProblem statement: Nitrogen application timing and Nitrogen (N) rate are two important factors to influence corn production in No-Tillage (NT) system, but N recommendations may need to be revised due to insufficient rainfall in dryland rain-fed environment. Approach: This study was to determine the effects of two N application timing (planting and split application at planting and V6 corn growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2011 · 8,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorn Response to Nitrogen Timing and Rate under Strip Tillage and Low-Yield Environment in Southeastern Coastal PlainsPawel Wiatrak, Ahmad Khalilian, Guihua ChenProblem statement: Insufficient rainfall under low yield environment may affect nitrogen management, plant growth indices and grain yields of corn (Zea mays L.). Approach: The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two N application timings (all at planting and as split application with N applied at planting and V6 stage) and five N fertilizer rates (0, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2011 · 7,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of Spatial Correlation of Mean Diameter: A Case Study of Trees in Natural Dipterocarp ForestRafida M. Elobaid, Mahendran Shitan, Noor Akma Ibrahim et al.Problem statement: Spatial modeling has many applications in various fields like agriculture, meteorology, forestry and it takes into consideration the spatial correlation structures. In the field of forestry the growth rate, in particular, the diameter of trees is usually an important parameter. The growth rate of trees in a forest is likely to be influenced by various factors like nutrients, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Continuing Losses Estimation Using Initial Loss-Continuing Loss Model for Medium Sized Rural CatchmentsMahbub Ilahee, Monzur Alam ImteazProblem statement: The rainfall based design flood estimation techniques are commonly adopted in hydrological design and require a number of inputs including information on soil loss characteristics. Approach: A conceptual loss model known as the ‘Initial Loss-Continuing Loss (IL-CL) model’ is widely used in Australia. Results: The Initial Loss (IL) occurs at the beginning of the rainfall event, prior to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of N and K Fertilizers on Nutrient Leaching and Groundwater Quality under Mature Oil Palm in Sabah during the Monsoon PeriodPetronella G. Ah Tung, Mohd Kamil Yusoff, Nik Muhamad Majid et al.Problem statement: The oil palms are mainly grown in the humid tropics with high rainfall. Soluble Nitrogen (N) and Potassium (K) fertilizers are commonly required by the oil palm plantations to maximize palm productivity due to the highly weathered soils with low fertility. Thus, leaching losses of N and K nutrients may be unavoidable and these nutrients may move further … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 10,143 accessesView PDFCite
