Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Accumulation and Biomarker Responses in Cockles from Moroccan Mediterranean CoastsIkram Chbani, Saida Bouzid, Nourredine Bouayad, Hassan Er-RaiouiThis study aims to evaluate levels and effects of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in cockles (Acanthocardia tuberculatae) collected from two differently influenced areas in the Mediterranean Western Moroccan coasts. PAHs accumulation was studied in soft tissues using Soxhlet extraction and separation on silica column methods. The measure of those organic compounds was realized by Gas chromatography coupled to Mass spectrometer … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 30 Jul 2019 · 7,497 accessesView PDFCite
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
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractClostridia in Commercial Fish of the Azov and Black Seas and in Aquaculture Facilities in the Southern Region of RussiaYuriy Aleksandrovich Fedorov, Marina Aleksandrovna Morozova, Roman Gennad'yevich TrubnikThe paper presents studies on the infection with clostridia of fish with skin lesions and ulcers on the surface of the body. The objects of study were syrman goby from the eastern part of the Taganrog Bay of the Sea of Azov, turbot from the shelf zone of the north-eastern Black Sea and carps reared under aquaculture conditions. Using an … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2019 · 7,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrain Size Distribution Characteristics Variation in Oily Contaminated Sandy Soils Due to Long Term Aging Effect in Al-Ahmadi Field at KuwaitHumoud Melfi Aldaihani, Fahad A. Alotaibi, Farraj F. Al-ajmiAlmost three decades on, the negative environmental impacts arising from the burning of over 600 oil wells in Kuwait following the 1991 Gulf War are still evident. At the time of the incident, the Kuwaiti desert region became polluted with hydrocarbon, with a number of ‘oil lakes’ forming, causing critical harm to local land. This paper discusses the shifts in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 23 Nov 2018 · 8,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Pollution by Heavy Metals in the Gold Mining Region of East CameroonDallou Guy Blanchard, Ngoa Engola Louis, Abdourahimi et al.The main objective of this study is to assess the level of heavy metals pollution in soil samples collected around gold mines located in Betaré Oya (BO) and Batouri (BA) in Eastern Cameroon. Elemental analysis of soil samples was carried out using Quant´X EDXRF spectrometer. Its sensitivity and accuracy were increased by using the Fundamental Parameter approach for quantification of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 7 Nov 2018 · 9,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Band Selection in Weighted Linear Prediction for Hyperspectral Image ClassificationIbtissam Banit'ouagua, Mounir Ait Kerroum, Ahmed HammouchThe advancement of imaging procedures has made hyperspectral sensors fit for acquiring spectral data in many restricted and bordering bands, which brings about a high relationship between's neighboring bands and high information excess. It is important to decrease these bands previously advance analysis utilizing land cover classification and target location. Going for the classification undertaking, this paper displays another weighted … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 4 Sep 2018 · 8,262 accessesView PDFCite
