Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Development of Geo-Information System for Finding Potential Zones of Water using Environmental Parameters and EngineeringN. Sundara Rajulu, M. RajaniProblem statement: Water is a major natural resource for all the living beings in the world. People’s lives and livelihood depends on water. Most of the human beings in this world use ground water for drinking purpose. The reason behind that is the ground water is pollution less or less polluted when compared with the surface water. The need for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2012 · 7,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Land Use Practices on the Organic Carbon Content, Cation Exchange Capacity and Aggregate Stability of Soils in the Catchment ZonesMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Shamshuddin Jusop, Nik Muhammad MajidProblem statement: Land use practice leads to changes in the physico-chemical properties of soils, such as Soil Organic Carbon (SOC), Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) and Soil Aggregate Stability (SAS) that cause soil erosion. Approach: Merek catchment, Iran suffers from land degradation due to poor land use practice. A study was carried out with the objectives: (i) to determine soil nutrient … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 25 Oct 2011 · 8,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsClimate-Driven Productivity Responses and Implications for Genetic Adaptation and Breeding of Boreal Trees in KazakhstanZhadyra Baigazakova, Kuralay Mazarzhanova, Asset Satayev et al.Kazakhstan’s boreal and forest-steppe forests form the southern ecotonal edge of the West Siberian taiga, where relatively small changes in heat and moisture can trigger disproportionate impacts on tree growth, mortality, and regeneration. Although forests cover only ~4% of Kazakhstan, they provide critical ecosystem services: stabilizing hydrological regimes, buffering microclimates, protecting agricultural lands from wind and water erosion, and supporting … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 709 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Practical Framework for the Continuous Advancement of Entrepreneurship EducationRobin Anderson, Brooke R. Envick, Prasad PadmanabhanProblem statement: As the business environment becomes more and more complex due to rapid globalization, increasing competition and advancing technologies, universities are under more pressure to respond by providing students with experiential learning opportunities that mirror reality. In this study, we attempt to provide a better learning experience for students. Specifically, we provide a framework from a student learning perspective … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2012 · 8,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPalynological Studies of Sediments from North Chioma-3 Well, Niger Delta and its Palaeoenvironmental InterpretationsOlugbenga Ebenezer Ige, Kalyani Datta, Kanak Sahai, Krishna Kumar RawatProblem statement: The Niger Delta Nigeria stands among the world's best-studies delta complexes but its superficial deposits are among the poorest known publicity. In spite of continuous oil prospecting production in the area, there is still a paucity of published information and data on the palynology of the Niger Delta. This study aimed at reconstructing the palaeoenvironments of the Niger … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 10 Oct 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTemporal Variations in Abundance and Species Richness of Zooplankton with Emphasis on Ichthyoplankton in the Subtidal Waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Northwestern Arabian Gulf of the ROPME Sea AreaMohammad Ali, Matrah Al-Mutairi, M.N.V. Subrahmanyam et al.Zooplankton, including the ichthyoplankton, abundance and species richness over time in the subtidal waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Kuwait Bay, were sampled and quantified from September 2016 to August 2017. At the same period, physicochemical measurements (i.e., water temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations) occurred. A total of 9 larval fish families were identified: Acropomatidae, Bregmacerotidae, Bythitidae, Clupeidae, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 6 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModeling Pan Evaporation for Kuwait using Multiple Linear Regression and Time-Series TechniquesJaber AlmedeijThis study attempts to model evaporation for Kuwait under arid conditions by using a wide range of monthly evaporation data, varying from 0.1 to 40 mm/day, from January 1993 to July 2015. Owing to the reason that the well-known theoretical evaporation models presented in the literature have been justified for a much shorter data range, the paper adopts empirical approaches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 8 Jun 2016 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of the Tunnel Face Stability through a Ground Stress Analysis with a Hemispherical Geometry ApproximationPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the stability of the excavation face is an important aspect in the design of a tunnel. When it is not possible to ensure excavation face stability in natural conditions, it is in fact necessary to intervene with remarkably costly reinforcement operations. The analysis of the stability conditions of an excavation face can be conducted, with a certain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 8 Jan 2015 · 6,724 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Determination of the Tunnel Structure Loads Through the Analysis of the Interaction between the Void and the Support Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the load acting on a tunnel support is of fundamental importance for the correct dimensioning of the structure when analytical calculation methods are used. The load acting on the support depends on various factors and for this reason its evaluation can appear somewhat complex. One way of evaluating the load acting on a support is to use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Infrastructural Facilities on the Rental Values of Residential PropertyJulius Ajilowo Bayode Olujimi, Mustapha Oyewole BelloProblem statement: Real estate developers were consistently faced with the issue of making decisions on the types of property to invest their hard earned income or highly competitive secured mortgage funds, which were attached with high lending rates. One of the different sectors that are begging for such investment is residential property development. Approach: This study evaluated the effects of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,414 accessesView PDFCite
