Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetrophysical Characterization and Flow Models for Agbada Reservoirs, Onshore Niger Delta, NigeriaPrince Suka Momta, John Owate Etu-Efeotor, Charles Ugwu UgwuezeThree selected reservoirs (XB, XC and XE) from three wells (A, B and C) occurring within the Agbada producing sands in part of the Greater Ughelli Depobelt of the onshore Niger Delta have been studied. The study aims at evaluating the petrophysical characteristics of the sand-bodies and also identifies the various flow units present within each reservoir. Petrophysical parameters were … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 21 Oct 2015 · 7,910 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreliminary Evaluation of a Permeable Reactive Barrier for Reducing Groundwater Nitrate Transport from a Large Onsite Wastewater SystemCharles Humphrey, Sushama Pradhan, Eban Bean et al.A permeable reactive barrier was installed between a large Onsite Wastewater System (OWS) and a monitoring well located down-gradient from the OWS. Groundwater samples from the well had shown elevated and increasing concentrations of NO3--N (>20 mg L-1 for 2 years). The barrier was constructed using woodchips from various tree species that were placed in a trench excavated to approximately … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 25 Aug 2015 · 7,372 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Aquifer Characteristics in Echi, Delta State, Nigeria Using Well Logging and Pumping Test MethodOchuko AnomohanranThis study was carried out to evaluate the aquifer characteristics of groundwater at Echi, Delta State, Nigeria. This was carried out by conducting electrical resistivity and spontaneous potential loggings in a drilled well at the study location. Pumping test using a one kilowatt pumping machine was carried out in the well. The logs were interpreted while the record of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 6 Sep 2013 · 6,950 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying Poultry Manure for Pollution Potential Reduction and Production of Organic FertilizerA. E. Ghaly, M. AlhattabDisposal and storage of raw poultry manure has become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Poultry manure begins to decompose immediately after excretion giving off ammonia which, in high concentrations, can have adverse effects on the health and productivity of birds as well as the health of the farm workers. Application to land is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2013 · 9,724 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying of Poultry Manure for Use as Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing sectors of livestock production in the world. The estimated 2010 world flock was over 18 billion birds with a yearly manure output of 22 million tonnes. Storage and disposal of raw poultry manure have become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Environmental and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2012 · 12,085 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater Flow Systems and Their Response to Climate Change: A Need for a Water-System View ApproachJoel J. Carrillo-Rivera, Antonio CardonaProblem statement: The interest in early hydrogeological studies was the aquifer unit, as it is the physical media that stores and permits groundwater transfers from the recharge zone to the discharge zone, making groundwater available to boreholes for water extraction. Approach: Recently, the aquifer concept has been complemented by the groundwater flow system theory, where groundwater may be defined by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,077 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution to the Study of the Origin of Salinity in Alluvial Aquifer System in the Ain chabro-Hammamet (North-East ALGERIA)K. Seghir, N. KhériciTebessa is located in the Algerian North East. It is characterized by a semi-arid continental climate with an average interannual precipitation of less than 400 mm. It belongs to the Eastern Saharian Atlas field along the Tunisian borders. It is drained by a certain number of the wouady of which Chabro and Bouakous are the most important. The surface area … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,608 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxic and Antimicrobial Potential of Actinomycete Species Saccharopolyspora salina VITSDK4 Isolated from the Bay of Bengal Coast of IndiaK. Suthindhiran, K. KannabiranProblem statement: Although the diversity of marine Actinobacteria have been studied and biotechnologically exploited throughout the world, the studies on marine actinobacteria in Indian peninsula are largely unexplored. Of 9 maritime states in India, only 4 states have been extensively studied for the diversity of actinobacteria. Further, the studies on bioactive actinomycetes from saline soil are very scanty. In the … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,440 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDF Cite
