Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStudies on the Seasonal Changes in Antioxidant Enzymes Activity on Differently, Polluted Areas along the Bay of Bengal Employing Perna viridis as an Animal ModelC. Amutha, P. SubramanianAntioxidants are the innate or acquired molecules capable of slowing down or preventing the oxidative damage (damage due to reactive oxygen species) that caused by free radicals. The antioxidant enzyme activity in response to season as well as hydrocarbon pollution was attempted. Rayapuram fishing harbor of Chennai (Station-1) is highly oil contaminated with oil sleeks on the surface. The relatively … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOn Replenishing Items with Seasonal Intermittent DemandGary Mitchell, Meike NiederhausenProblem statement: There are numerous difficulties associated with replenishing intermittent demand items and these are compounded when the demand distribution(s) vary seasonally. Excess inventories during an “off” season are typical, while shortages frequently occur during the “in” season, especially at the transition points between “seasons”. Approach: Evaluate the extent to which items characterized by non-stationary (seasonal) intermittent demand can be … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,537 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMonitoring Growing Season Length of Deciduous Broad Leaf Forest Derived From Satellite Data in IranSasan Babaei Kafaki, Asadollah Mataji, Seyed Armin HashemiProblem statement: Leaf phenology describes the seasonal cycle of leaf functioning and is essential for understanding the interactions between the biosphere, the climate and biogeochemical cycles. This study aimed to quantify changes in plant phenology of deciduous broadleaf forests between the years 1982-1999 and investigate the relationships between the onset dates of phenology and climatic factors. Approach: We studied the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,557 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleResidual Influence of Early Season Crop Fertilization and Cropping System on Growth and Yield of CassavaE. A. Makinde, O. T. AyoolaProblem Statement: In assessing fertilizer effects to sustain an intensive cropping system, the residual effects of fertilizer applied to preceding maize on the growth and yield of cassava and the effects of intercropping with soybean were studied in field experiments at Ibadan, Nigeria. Approach: Maize, established in April was fertilized using either organic manure or inorganic fertilizer or a mixture … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFinancial Assessment of a new Soil Heating Technology for Off-season Asparagus ProductionA. Luce, K. Mattas, I. Tzouramani et al.The financial effectiveness of a soil heating system placed under the crowns in each raised bed (UCR) of Asparagus plants (Asparagus officinalis L.) was evaluated and then compared with a traditional greenhouse production system (TPS), a plastic greenhouse without any heating system, in northern Greece. Several appraisal approaches, such as net present value, net present value adjusted for inflation and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,863 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEpidemiology and Seasonal Pattern of Malaria in an Irrigated Area of Eastern SudanYousif El-Safi Himeidan, Efatih. M. Malik, Ishag AdamEpidemiological patterns of malaria are widely different; such information can help programs to design interventions relevant to situation. This cohort study investigated the epidemiology of malaria in Dipaira camp, an irrigated area, in eastern Sudan during the period July 2004 to Jun 2005. At baseline, the relevant socio-demographic factors and the monthly malaria parasitological surverys were carried-out. Thirty- six (4.1%) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Models for River Flow ForecastingKassahun Birhanu Tadesse, Megersa Olumana Dinka, Tena Alamirew, Semu Ayalew MogesReservoir operation policies cannot be functional in instant decision making without forecasting the future reservoir inflows. For forecasting inflows into reservoirs with only hydrological data is available like Koga irrigation dam, multivariate forecasting models cannot be used to generate accurate river flow information. As a result, an evaluation of univariate Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models was done for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 28 Sep 2017 · 7,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average Model for Precipitation Time SeriesYan Wang, Xinghua Chang, Meng Gao, Xiyong HouPredicting the trend of precipitation is a difficult task in meteorology and environmental sciences. Statistical approaches from time series analysis provide an alternative way for precipitation prediction. The ARIMA model incorporating seasonal characteristics, which is referred to as seasonal ARIMA model was presented. The time series data is the monthly precipitation data in Yantai, China and the period is from … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Feb 2013 · 12,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeasonal ARIMA for Forecasting Air Pollution Index: A Case StudyMuhammad Hisyam Lee, Nur Haizum Abd. Rahman, Suhartono et al.Problem statement: Both developed and developing countries are the major reason that affects the world environment quality. In that case, without limit or warning, this pollution may affect human health, agricultural, forest species and ecosystems. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the monthly and seasonal variations of Air Pollution Index (API) at all monitoring stations in Johor. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 14 Feb 2012 · 10,326 accessesView PDFCite
