Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSeparating Low Pass and High Pass Frequencies in the Image Without loosing informationZ. Alqadi, J. Musbah, A. L. MontengroGranulometries are morphological image analysis tools that are particularly useful for estimating object sizes in binary and grayscale images, or for characterizing textures based on their pattern spectra. There are many applications that morphology can be applied to. Some morphological operations like dilation, erosion and open-close are used in image and video processing, but with no application to pre-processing for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,428 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Covers and Rainfall on Soil and Water Conservation Using a Tilting Flume ModelS. Compliew, L. Suwanchai, N. KrongwiengThe effect of stone and vegetative covers was evaluated for soil and water conservation in a waterway on salty soils in the Northeast of Thailand. Experiments were conducted on a hydraulic tilting flume under simulated unit flow (120 and 45 cm2s-1), rainfall (120 mm/hr) and slope (0, 1.2,1.4,1.6,1.8,2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0%) conditions. The depth of soil was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSoil Degradation Risk Prediction Integrating RUSLE with Geo-information Techniques, the Case of Northern Shaanxi Province in ChinaMushtak T. Jabbar, Xiaoling ChenThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with RS, GIS and GPS techniques to quantify soil erosion risk and the northern part of Shaanxi province in China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. The rating values served as inputs into a modified Revised … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsText Summarization Using Morphological Filtering of Intuitionistic Fuzzy HypergraphDhanya Prabhasadanam Mohanan, Sreekumar Ananda Rao, Jathavedan Madambi, Ramkumar Padinjarepizharath BalakrishnaText Summarization has been an area of interest for many years. It refers to creating a concise text of a document without any lose of information. Researchers in the area of natural language processing have developed many abstractive and extractive methods for creating summary. Abstractive summaries modifies the sentences and creates a modified concise form, while extractive summaries pick relevant … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 25 Jun 2018 · 7,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLand Degradation and Preventive Measures From the Perspective of the StakeholdersMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Nik Muhamad Majid, J. ShamshuddinLand degradation at the catchment scale in Iran is widespread, usually assumed to be accelerated by the activities of local inhabitants. Social issues such as low income, poverty and low level of welfare and education contribute to land degradation. A study was conducted to identify the causes of land degradation in Merek catchment, Iran and to propose appropriate measures to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 8,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVertical Profile of C, N, P, K and Radionuclides in Soil Collected from Highland Tea Plantation AreasZaini Hamzah, Seh Datul Riduan, Ahmad SaatProblem statement: Cameron Highlands is a well known agricultural area in Peninsular Malaysia. Long term usage of fertilizer has caused accumulation of major elemental component in the soil. This accumulation will cause enrichment of the nutrient in the catchment located at downstream of the river through runoff. Approach: Two tea plantations on the upstream with hilly condition plantation were selected … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Soil Loss Using GIS and RUSLE Model in Bakiya River Basin (BRB), Central NepalSujan Bista, Naresh Kazi Tamrakar, Kishor Rimal, Arju BhattaraiSoil erosion is the major geological hazard in the fragile landscape of Sub-Himalaya. This study examines the susceptibility of the Bakiya River Basin (BRB) in Central Nepal to soil erosion because of its steep topography, fragile geology, the impact of intense monsoon rainfall, and the lack of a direct monitoring mechanism available for rainfall-runoff. This study examines the spatial variations … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2025 · 3,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate-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
