Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand-Cover Removal and Gully Development in Southeast Nigeria: A 30-Year Analysis with Pixel and OBIA Approaches in JuxtapositionSylvanus IroIn this study a study of gully erosion in southeast Nigeria is presented. The study of gully development on a regional scale is currently undermined by the inherent costs associated with consistent field monitoring and the lack of historic measurements to perform time series analysis. As a result, there are very few studies which implement long term analyses of gullies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 9 Jun 2020 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecific Features of the Accumulation and Distribution of Heavy Metals in Soils of the Floodplain and Deltaic Landscapes of the Don RiverTatiana M. Minkina, Dina G. Nevidomskaya, Yuriy A. Fedorov et al.The purpose of this work was to study specific features of the accumulation and distribution of the total content and mobile forms of Heavy Metals (HM) in soils of the estuarine ecosystems of the floodplain and deltaic landscapes of the Don River. The results allowed us to detect regional specific features in the formation of HM compounds in floodplain soils … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 19 Nov 2015 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToward a Hierarchical Bayesian Framework for Modelling the Effect of Regional Diversity on Household ExpenditurePudji Ismartini, Nur Iriawan, Setiawan, Brodjol Sutijo Supri UlamaProblem statement: Household expenditure analysis was highly demanding for government in order to formulate its policy. Since household data was viewed as hierarchical structure with household nested in its regional residence which varies inter region, the contextual welfare analysis was needed. This study proposed to develop a hierarchical model for estimating household expenditure in an attempt to measure the effect … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2012 · 7,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFujisaki's Model of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai DialectsSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In general, there are a number of rural dialects in Thai. However, four dialects are mainly spoken by Thai people residing in four core region including central, north, northeast and south regions. Recognizing and synthesizing Thai speech with different dialects are consequently difficult. Approach: Prosody is an important factor that must be taken into account, since the prosody … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 19 Nov 2010 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model Along the Best Track of Typhoon Linda 1997Worachat Wannawong, Usa W. Humphries, Prungchan Wongwises et al.Problem statement: A two-dimensional wave prediction model along the best track of Typhoon Linda 1997 was interested to study the impact of typhoon wind-wave characteristics. The dynamical wave model with deep water condition was used to predict the wave height (Hs) of Typhoon Linda before and after entering into the Gulf of Thailand (GoT). Approach: The standard one-way nested grid … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChanges in Rural Areas and Regional DevelopmentHelen Theodoropoulou, Panagiotis KaldisThe present study examines how regional development has been affected by social, economic and environmental changes in three regions located in central Greece. These regions were affected significantly by social and economic changes, because of substantial new infrastructure development that took place related to a ski resort and agritourism establishments. Sample data were collected on the characteristics of residents and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRAM 1.0 Software for Gaussian-Plume Multiple Source Air Quality SimulationLiren Yu, Paulo I.F. de AlmeidaThis study presents a developed software in environmental engineering, namely RAM 1.0 (RAM: Regulatory Air Model), adopted completely Graphical User Interface (GUI) technique, for operating in various Windows-based microcomputers. RAM 1.0 software consists of the improved RAM Model and RAM Algorithm as well as developed RAM 1.0 Graphical User Interface, respectively. RAM Model takes into account different ambient characteristics, meteorological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Problem of Stratigraphic Assignment of the Key Seismic Horizons on the East-Arctic Shelf and in the Area of Central Arctic UpliftsLidia Daragan-Sushchova, Lyudmila Grinko, Natalia Petrovskaya, Yuri Daragan-SushchovModern geological and geophysical studies of Central Arctic uplifts area and East-Arctic Shelf has revealed the basic problems in stratigraphic subdivision of sedimentary cover. Basic approach for subdivision of Arctic Ocean sedimentary cover is based on the wave field's characteristics and tracing of regional seismic horizons. Their age identification still depends on general geological ideas. Different correlative models of seismic-stratigraphic … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 16 Jul 2015 · 7,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evaluation of Anti-Stripping Additives Mixing in Road Surface Pavement MaterialsTienfuan Kerh, Yu-Min Wang, Yulern LinMost road surfaces in Taiwan are paved with asphalt concrete but the phenomena of rutting, cracking and stripping of the pavement are frequently occurring due to the effects of traffic flow, thermal variation and water erosion caused by rain. In this study, a series of experiments were performed to examine the effectiveness of anti-stripping fillers, which include; rock flour, rock … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
