Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTreatment of Wastewater by Natural Lagoon for its Reuse in IrrigationM. Driche, D. Abdessemed, G. NezzalThe process of natural lagoon consists in purifying the waste water by simple flow of the effluent in not very deep ponds where proliferate bacteria, algae and other living organisms, under a surrounding air and in the presence of a solar radiation. For this study, which is spread out over 3 years (2004-2006) and which still continues, we chose the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCross-Latitudinal, Seasonal and Diurnal Comparisons in Thyroid Hormone Concentrations in Sled DogsKriya L. Dunlap, Arleigh J. Reynolds, Kent R. Refsal et al.Problem Statement: Hypothyroidism has been a common disorder in humans and dogs. Amongst a sundry of functions, the thyroid gland plays a key role in metabolism and consequently, hypothyroidism has been a common diagnosis for a decrease in performance in sled dogs. Research has indicated that a variety of environmental factors influence thyroid hormone production, of which, light exposure, climate, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPublishing Geospatial Data through Geospatial Web Service and XML Database SystemPouria Amirian, Ali A. AlesheikhTechnically the spatial non-interoperability problem associated with current geospatial processing systems can be categorized as data and access non-interoperability. In GIS community, Open GIS Consortium (OGC) geospatial Web services have been introduced to overcome spatial noninteroperability problem associated with most geospatial processing systems. At the same time, in Information Technology (IT) world, the best solution for providing interoperability among heterogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of pollution on lead and cadmium concentration and correlation with biochemical parameters in blood of human population nearby Kosovo thermo power plantsEugene Oks, N.M. Daci, M.N. Daci-Ajvazi, H. PaçariziThis study describes an investigation of lead and cadmium pollution of Kosovo environment as a result of outflow from the coal processing industry. In a comparative study of lead and cadmium concentration in blood of human population of two different environments in Kosovo, one nearby Kosovo Thermo Power Plants, (Obiliq) a highly polluted environment and the other that is considered … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of Biochemical Parameters During Composting of Various Wastes CompostN. Saidi, M. Cherif, N. Jedidi et al.In Tunisia the most treatment waste is landfill (50% of wastes were land filled) and only 5% are composted. And since our soil become more and more poor in organic matter, green waste can be a significant source of organic matter; in parallel we cited the domestic waste and dead posodonia collected from beaches. All these wastes coming from various … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation, Selection and Assessment of Guidelines for Chemical Stabilization of Tropical Residual SoilsBujang B.K. Huat, Asmidar Alias, Azlan Abdul AzizSoil stabilization has been widely used as an alternative to substitute the lacking of suitable materials on site. Guidelines and standards have been developed to assist practitioners in designing structures such as road by mean of stabilization. This paper presents the results of an investigation aimed at evaluating and assessing the suitable guidelines for the stabilization of tropical residual soils. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDead Sea Rate of EvaporationAbdelaziz L. AL-KhlaifatThe Dead Sea is exceptional by many standards. It is the saltiest and lowest lake in the world. Moreover it is a closed lake with very large variations in its water level caused by both man-made and natural oscillations of the components that make up the water balance. Most of the fundamental studies on the Dead Sea focused on the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Block Matching Algorithm for Fast Motion Estimation in Video CompressionM. Ezhilarasan, P. ThambiduraiBlock matching motion estimation was one of the most important modules in the design of any video encoder. It consumed more than 85% of video encoding time due to searching of a candidate block in the search window of the reference frame. To minimize the search time on block matching, a simplified and efficient Block Matching Algorithm for Fast Motion … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,041 accessesView PDFCite
