Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Chemical Properties on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to investigate the seriousness of degradation of peat swamp forest caused by skidding system in terms of its function as a carbon sink. In this study, we formulated assumptions that conditions of our research site before the introduction of skidding system were in their natural states, thus that changes measured are clearly caused by skidding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,915 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Precipitation Fluctuation on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to compare the effect of extremely different rainfall conditions on soil carbon storage of lowland tropical peat swamp forest. Therefore, under these natural rainfall gradient, the objectives of this study were to determine whether rainfall affects soil carbon storage of a tropical peat swamp forest and to determine what correlations between variables occurs which stimulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,603 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrganic Matter, Carbon and Humic Acids in Rehabilitated and Secondary Forest SoilsLee Yit Leng, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid, Mohamadu Boyie JallohProblem Statement: Tropical rainforests cover about 19.37 million ha (60%) of Malaysia’s total area and about 8.71 million ha can be found in Sarawak, Malaysia. Excessive logging, mining and shifting cultivation contribute to deforestation in Sarawak. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Quantify soil Organic Matter (SOM), Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) and Humic Acids (HA) in rehabilitated and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 7,761 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordStable Isotope Diet Reconstruction of Feral Horses on the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge, Nevada, USAMegan K. Nordquist, Todd F. Robinson, Gail H. Collins et al.Feral horse management has become a subject of significant controversy in the United States, resulting in part from opposing views of best management practices and limited empirical data. Feral horse densities increase in response to high reproductive rates and limited horse removal. with this increase, land managers are challenged with accurately quantifying horse diet selection and subsequent impacts on western … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2024 · 5,390 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordElectrodeposition Fabrication of Pd Nanoparticles on Glassy Carbon Electrode Towards Methanol Oxidation ApplicationXiaoyun Qin, Wenbo Lu, Yonglan Luo et al.The present paper reports on the rapid fabrication of Pd nanoparticles on glassy carbon electrode by eletrodeposition technique. It suggests that such film exhibits good catalytic activity and stability with respect to methanol oxidation in an alkaline media. It also suggests that the loading of the Pd nanoparticles on the substrate and therefore the effective catalytic area can be tuned … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2013 · 11,333 accessesView PDF Cite
