Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractTime-Resolution of Climate Change Monitoring Volcanic Cycles, Stromboli, Ocean Floor Biota and Pandemics (?)Giovanni Pietro Gregori, Gabriele PaparoClimate change is an ongoing, poorly understood and disquieting challenge. The primary drivers are debated. Clear evidence is however suggestive of a time variation of the planetary release of endogenous energy. In fact, soil exhalation is an unprecedented challenge for humankind, as a phenomenon of this kind happens only every 27.40.05 Ma, while human history spans only the last 30,0000 … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 7 Sep 2021 · 6,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Factors Affecting on Willingness to Observe Air Pollution Reduction Policies in Tehran, IranPejman Jafari, Afrooz BotshekanOne of the most important issues of these days is an environmental pollution. Environmental problems such as air pollution and climate changes in urban areas are the results of human behavior. Only change in human behavior can reduce these environmental problems. Thus, studying attitude and behavior of people is a precondition to change this situation. This study aimed to examine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2021 · 7,806 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication and Prospect of CO2 Enrichment Technology in AgricultureBingbing Wang, Xiangjie Lu, Wanlin Gao et al.With the increasing consumption of fossil fuels for human activities, the emissions of greenhouse gases, such as CO2, have significantly increased, resulting in an intensified greenhouse effect. As an important element for plant photosynthesis, CO2 enrichment in an appropriate environment can promote photosynthetic rate, organic matter accumulation and the growth rate of plants. The CO2 enrichment technology should be widely … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2022 · 6,457 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConservation of Binding of Llama and Other Animals’ Hemoglobins to Haptoglobins Across SpeciesMoges Woldemeskel, Oluseyi A. VanderpuyeThe plasma protein haptoglobin binds hemoglobin released from lysed erythrocytes. It causes removal of the free hemoglobin, thus preventing pathological oxidation of cells. Hemoglobin higher level structures are well conserved across animal species but primary structures can be as little as 50% homologous. Because of these differences, the question arose as to what extent hemoglobins can bind to haptoglobins from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2018 · 9,203 accessesView PDFCite
