Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRestoration of Biodiversity and EcosystemIgnacio Santa-Regina, M. C. Santa-ReginaSuccession is one of the most studied processes in ecology and succession theory provides strong predictability. However, few attempts have been made to influence the course of succession thereby testing the hypothesis that the passage of one stage is essential to enter a next one. At each stage of succession ecosystem processes may be affected by the diversity of species … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2013 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination of Minimal Duration Essential for Isolation of Humic Acids From Soils in Forest Restoration ProgrammesMohd Ramzan Nur Hanisah, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Kasim Susilawati et al.This study was conducted to investigate whether a simple and rapid method could be developed for extracting, fractionating and purifying soil HA in forest rehabilitation programmes. Humic acids from 10 g of soil were extracted with 100 mL of 0.10 M NaOH. Different extraction periods (4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h) were tested. Samples were centrifuged (16,211 G … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,173 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Analysis of Surface Microhardness and Antimicrobial Activity of Conventional and Bioactive Composite Materials for Dental RestorationsBruno Fongaro Dalbosco, Rafael da Silva Vanolli, Poliana Maria de Faveri Cardoso et al.This study evaluated the fluoride release capability, antimicrobial activity, and surface microhardness of bioactive composite resins, critical properties for the effectiveness and durability of dental materials in restorative procedures. Conventional and bioactive composite resins with varying viscosities were tested. Specimens of each resin type were prepared and stored in physiological saline solution for 24 hours to simulate oral conditions. Surface … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2026 · 2,809 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCloud Privacy Preservation Using Improved Squeezenet Based Data Sanitization and Improved Lyrebird Optimization-Based Optimal Key GenerationSmita Sharma, Sanjay TyagiMaintaining privacy in the cloud is critical, which implies reliable and effective models that are adapted to the difficulties presented by cloud settings. This paper introduces a comprehensive privacy preservation model tailored specifically for cloud environments, comprising five important phases such as data acquisition, normalization, feature extraction, sanitization and restoration. It begins with the meticulous collection of data from diverse … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 20 Aug 2025 · 3,190 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsContact with Nature and Children’s Wellbeing in Educational SettingsGiuseppe Carrus, Sabine Pirchio, Ylenia Passiatore et al.Problem statement: The study explores the role of the spatial-physical features of the environment for the functioning of educational institutions. Previous research in the field of environmental psychology showed how physical characteristics of learning environments might be linked to positive or negative outcomes in terms of learning attitudes and behaviors. In particular, there is consistent empirical evidence showing that contact … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 26 Mar 2012 · 14,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRisk Reduction in Operations, Maintenance and Application for Customer Access NetworkMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Asma Che Aziz, Kasmiran Jumari, Nurain Izzati ShuhaimiProblem statement: This study highlight on restoration scheme proposed against failure in working line at the drop region for Fiber-To-The Home (FTTH) with a Passive Optical Network (PON). Whereas PON is a system that brings optical fiber cable and signals all or most of the way to the end user. In this study we highlighted the issue on survivability scheme … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Jan 2012 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
