Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Effect of a Dumpsite to Groundwater Quality in Payatas, PhilippinesGlenn L. Sia SuThe study assessed and compared the groundwater quality of 14 selected wells continuously used in the with (Payatas) and without dumpsite (Holy Spirit) areas at the Payatas estate, Philippines. Water quality monitoring and analyses of the bio-physico-chemical variables (pH, Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), total coliform, conductivity, salinity, nitrate-nitrogen, sulfate, color, total chromium, total lead and total … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 9,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSalinity, Temperature and Turbidity Structure in the Suva Lagoon, FijiAwnesh Singh, Than AungThe city of Suva is home to nearly a quarter of the population of the Fiji thereby placing a lot of anthropogenic pressure on its lagoon. The Suva lagoon (comprising of Suva Harbour and Laucala Bay) has been subject to substantial sediment inputs generated by erosion and human activities. Freshwater input into the lagoon comes predominantly from the Rewa River, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,995 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrimary Pollutants Monitoring and Modeling Using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) Around Fahaheel Residential AreaS. M. Al-Salem, A. A. Al-Haddad, A. R. KhanFour major sources of air pollution were identified and modeled using Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) around a residential area. The sources were identified as MAA refinery, downtown area, upstream facilities and main highway road. The sources were analyzed using a series of concentration roses (unfiltered and filtered) executed from the data collected. Data collected included primary and secondary pollutants levels … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal SO2 Emissions from Power Stations and Evaluation of their Impact in Kuwait Using a Gaussian Plume Dispersion ModelA.A. Ramadan, M. Al-Sudairawi, S. Alhajraf, A.R. KhanIn Kuwait, most of the power stations use fuel oil as the prime source of energy. The sulphur content (S%) of the fuel used as well as other factors have a direct impact on the ground level concentration of sulphur dioxide (SO2) released by power stations into the atmosphere. The SO2 ground level concentration has to meet the environmental standards … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of The Biological Integrity of The Native Vegetative Community In A Surface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Industrial Park ContaminantsC. C. Galbrand, A. M. Snow, Abdel E. Ghaly, R. CôtéA study was conducted to evaluate the biological integrity of a constructed wetland receiving landfill leachate and stormwater runoff from the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. The biological integrity of the constructed wetland was tested in the second growing season using vegetative community monitoring. The metrics analyzed were species diversity, species heterogeneity (dominance) and exotic/invasive species abundance. There was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Air and Groundwater Pollution from Continuous High Land Application of Cheese WheyA.E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, N.S. MahmoudExperiments were performed, using eighteen 280 cm deep soil columns with 20 cm inside diameter, to determine the relative amounts of nitrogenous compounds leached and volatilized from soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey during two seasons. Three soils (loamy sand, sandy loam and sandy clay loam) and two cheese whey application rates (560 and 840 kg-N ha-1), that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,279 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Studies on the Effect of Phototoxicity of A New Photosensitizer Extracted from Flowers and Aerial Parts of Cichorium pumilumM-Ali H. Al-Akhras, Amr Amin, Karima Mohammad et al.New photosensitizers have been extracted from the flowers and aerial parts of the Cichorium pumilum Jacq (chicory). Chicory grows naturally in local wild areas and is known to cause quick death of only white sheep during its flowering season in autumn. Some of those isolated photosensitizers are yet to be further characterized. Preliminary investigations show a high degradation of isolated … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Analysis of Recent Changes in Relative Humidity in JordanAhmed A. Abu-Taleb, Ameen J. Alawneh, Mahmoud M. SmadiThis study examines recent changes in annual and seasonal relative humidity variations in Jordan. The analysis indicates an increasing trend in relative humidity at different stations. The analysis shows a significant increasing trend at Amman Airport Meteorological (AAM) station with a rate of increase 0.13% per year. These increasing trends are statistically significant during summer and autumn seasons. Finally, a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdapting the LMF Temporal Splining Procedure From Serial to MPI/Linux ClustersSajia Akhter, Ipshita Sarkar, Kazi G. Rabbany et al.Remote Sensing (RS) provides images over large areas such as provincial or country level. During the last 20 years, it plays a vital role for developing many complex applications. However, RS image includes data noises due to influence of haze or cloud especially in the rainy season. It is thus necessary to remove the noise to recover the real ground … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObserved Abrupt Changes in Minimum and Maximum Temperatures in Jordan in the 20th CenturyMahmoud M. SmadiThis study examines changes in annual and seasonal mean (minimum and maximum) temperatures variations in Jordan during the 20th century.
