Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Watershed Structures in Controlling Runoff - Case Study of Sardasht Basin in IRANSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi, Ghodratollah Davoudi, Seyedeh Laleh Razavi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIn order to investigate the performance of constructed structures in Sardasht watershed, Soil and Water Assessment Tools model for simulation of runoff and sediment during the studied period of 1996-2012 was carried out for two cases of existence and absence of flood control structures. From 2007 onwards by performing watershed operations in these sub-basins, the average runoff rate decreased about … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2020 · 7,346 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA’s Exploration Missions to the Red PlanetSantosh KosambeThe exploration missions to the red planet were started in 1960 by the Soviet Union, since then the planet has gain attention of all the scientists and explorers worldwide. Several exploration missions have been launched by the space organizations and nations to explore the Martian surface.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong Term Ageing Effect on Physical and Shear Strength Characteristics of Oil Contaminated Sandy Soils of Al-Ahmadi Field in KuwaitHumoud Melfi Aldaihani, Fahad A. Al-OtaibiSerious environmental damage was caused to Kuwait when more than 600 oil wells were set alight following the 1991 Gulf War, leading to hydrocarbon contamination and a series of ‘oil lakes’ being created in the desert. The effects of these highly damaging actions are still detectable today, 27 years later. The main contribution of this paper is that the effects … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2019 · 8,060 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Heavy Metals on the Enzymatic Activity of Haplic Chernozem under Model Experimental ConditionsNatalia Gromakova, Saglara Mandzhieva, Tatiana Minkina et al.The biological activity of soils is an essential parameter of their ecological status. The anthropogenic Heavy Metals (HMs) disturb the normal functioning of soil biota and, hence, the entire soil system. The aim of this work was to estimate the toxicity of loosely bound HM compounds in Haplic Chernozem using parameters of cellulose-degrading and urease activities. Contamination of Haplic Chernozem … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2017 · 7,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Resistance Evaluation of Dry Subtropics Brown Soils to Heavy Metal and Oil Contamination by Biological IndicatorsSergey Ilyich Kolesnikov, Natalya Aleksandrovna Petrova, Kamil Shagidullovich Kazeev et al.Contamination of brown calcareous soils with Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and oil leads to deterioration of their biological properties. There is a reduction in activity of catalase and dehydrogenase, an abundance of Azotobacter genus bacteria, cellulolytic activity and the length of radish roots. As a rule, there is a direct relationship between the content of contaminant in the soil and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2016 · 7,883 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting of Humidity of Some Selected Stations from the Northern Part of Bangladesh: An Application of SARIMA ModelMd. Moyazzem Hossain, Md. Atikur Rahman, Md. Zahirul Islam, Ajit Kumar MajumderCommunity risk from natural hazards and climate change depends largely on physical and climatic settings of an area, socio-economic condition of a community and the magnitude, duration and consecutiveness of the hazard or change itself. Impacts of climate change can be characterized by increasing temperatures, rainfall, humidity changes and climate related extreme events such as floods, cyclone, droughts, sea level … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 10 May 2016 · 8,618 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 abstractDesorption of Exchangeable Cations at Adsorption of Lead Ions by Chernozem in the Presence of Attendant AnionsT. M. Minkina, D. L. Pinskii, S. S. Mandzhieva et al.The effect of Cl–, Ac‾ and NO3‾ anions on the adsorption of Pb cations by an ordinary chernozem and desorption of exchangeable cations in the soil-solution system has been assessed under model laboratory conditions. It has been shown that the attendant anions affect the shape of the adsorption isotherms, which are described by the Langmuir equation. The greatest influence on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 20 Oct 2015 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
