Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Sediment Profile for 210Pb, Pb, U and Th from Sultan Abu Bakar Dam Due to Soil Erosion from Highland Agriculture Area, Cameron Highlands, MalaysiaZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Sultan Abu Bakar Dam in Cameron Highlands act as a catchment’s to accumulate all eroded soil carried by the run off flow through Bertam River, the main river that passes through the highland agriculture area. All suspended solid that carried out by the river contain various kind of hazard potential to the environment. U, Th and Pb are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 12 Jul 2011 · 7,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Performance Metric for Building an Optimized ClassifierMohammad Hossin, Md Nasir Sulaiman, Aida Mustapha, Norwati MustaphaProblem statement: Typically, the accuracy metric is often applied for optimizing the heuristic or stochastic classification models. However, the use of accuracy metric might lead the searching process to the sub-optimal solutions due to its less discriminating values and it is also not robust to the changes of class distribution. Approach: To solve these detrimental effects, we propose a novel … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVegetation Analysis of Sutan-Chay Basin in ArasbaranT. Ebrahimi Gajoti, V. Haciyev, A. Javanshir et al.Problem statement: Plants associations differ in relation to environmental gradients. Therefore, it is necessary to study the interaction between ecological factors and vegetation. Approach: In this study vegetation and flora of Sutan-Chay Basin in Arasbaran was investigated using Braun Blanquet method as physiognomic floristic. Sampling of soil and vegetation was carried out by selecting areas with homogenous plant compositions. The … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Variability of Irrigation Water Percolation Rates and Its Relation to Rice ProductivityW. Aimrun, M.S.M. Amin, A. GholizadehProblem statement: Study on spatial variability of vertical saturated hydraulic conductivity or percolation loss was conducted within a plot of an area of 1.2 ha paddy plot to find out the relationship between percolation rate and rice productivity. A paddy soil condition that permits percolation rate of 10-20 mm irrigation water day-1 was recommended in order to get high yield … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Tillage Methods on Soil Fragmentation in Loamy-Clay SoilsYousef Abbaspour-Gilandeh, Vali Rasooli Sharabiani, Ahmad KhalilianProblem statement: Soil fragmentation is a primary aim in tillage in order to create a favorable soil environment for crop growth. Soil fragmentation is defined as the process of breakdown and crumbling of soil aggregates. Currently, there is no published research data on optimum tillage operations for seedbed preparation in loamy-clay soils of western Caspian Sea region of Iran. Approach: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 10,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Based Digital Automatic Voltage Regulator of a Synchronous Generator with Unbalanced LoadsA. Darabi, S.A. Soleamani, A. HassanniaVoltage stability and power quality of the electrical systems depend on proper operation of the Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) of generators. Nowadays, design technology of the AVRs is being broadly improved. According to wide range operating conditions of the generators and loads, the fuzzy AVRs are going to be the modern type of regulators, particularly, for the genset alternators operating … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPercentile Double Ranked Set SamplingAmer Ibrahim Al-Omari, Khalifa H. JaberIn this paper, percentile double ranked set sampling (PDRSS) method is suggested for estimating the population mean. The PDRSS method is compared with the simple random sampling (SRS), ranked set sampling (RSS), median ranked set sampling (MRSS) and the extreme ranked set sampling (ERSS) methods. When the underlying distribution is symmetric, it turns out that PDRSS produce unbiased estimators of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUptake and Translocation of Manganese by Native Tree Species in a Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A.E. GhalyA surface flow constructed wetland was used to treat stormwater runoff from surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The uptake of manganese by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions in the constructed wetland was compared to that of the same trees growing under well drained soil … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultistage Median Ranked Set Sampling for Estimating the Population MedianAbdul Aziz Jemain, Amer Al-Omari, Kamarulzaman IbrahimWe modify RSS to come up with new sampling method, namely, Multistage Median Ranked Set Sampling (MMRSS). The MMRSS was suggested for estimating the population median and to increase the efficiency of the estimator for specific value of the sample size. The MMRSS was compared to the Simple Random Sampling (SRS), Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) and Median Ranked Set Sampling … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHemisphere Sizing from Linear Intercept MeasurementWilfried GilleThe stereological problem of unfolding the hemisphere radius distribution from the chord length distribution is analyzed. Let a stationary isotropic process of hemispheres be given. The hemispheres have random diameters and are isotropically uniformly randomly orientated in space. A straight line probe yields a process of intercepts. The inverse problem of re-obtaining the size distribution of the hemispheres in terms … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,146 accessesView PDFCite
