Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInteractions of Aerosol Optical Depth and Cloud Parameters with Rainfall and the Validation of Satellite Based Rainfall ObservationsMd Monirul Islam, Md Mainul Islam Mamun, Md Zahidul Islam, Mumnunul KeramatAerosol-cloud interactions influence the global precipitation patterns that influence significantly the Earth's climate system. Anthropogenic aerosols alter the clouds and their optical properties. The present study has investigated the Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), cloud parameters and rainfall interactions for three different monsoon periods (2008-2010) and also compared the satellite rainfall with ground based observations, by using MODIS and TRMM datasets. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 24 Jun 2017 · 7,754 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStimulating Properties of Biological Preparations on the Bulb Onion in KazakhstanR. Zh. Ukibaev, N. D. Slyamova, G. T. Kartbaeva et al.This article studies the stimulating properties of biological preparations Orgamica S and F used on bulb onions in Kazakhstan. As a result of our study, it has been proven that the best concentration of Orgamica S and F, which significantly increases the leaf area, is a 0.4% aqueous solution. Biological preparations at a concentration of 0.4% increase the ability of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 17 Dec 2021 · 5,826 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDF Cite
