Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Air Quality with Potential Linkage to the Metrological Conditions in Three Major Cities of PakistanNaima Hamid, Muhammad Junaid, Syeda Maria Ali et al.Environmental pollution being fatal for all living organisms is growing adversely due to excessive industrialization and urbanization. Vehicular emissions have aggravated the situation and pose detrimental effects on human health. In this study, the trend of ambient air quality was analyzed in the three metropolitan cities of Pakistan, including Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad for a period of three years (2008-2010). … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2019 · 8,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRANSPIRATION INFLUENCES CADMIUM UPTAKE BY BABY LEAF SPINACH (SPINACIA OLERACEA L.)Carlo Chehine, Paul Holford, Oula Ghannoum et al.Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal whose concentration in soils is rising. This study investigated the effect of transpiration on Cd uptake by plants using soil conditions akin to those experienced by field crops. Two experiments were performed using baby leaf spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) grown in soil containing Chloride (Cl) at a typical concentration of 70 mg kg-1. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,066 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Tourist Arrivals Using Time Series Analysis: Evidence From AustraliaGurudeo AnandTularam, Victor Siew Howe Wong, Seyed AbdelhamidShobeiriNejadAustralian tourism has a logistic trend as Butler’s model shows. The stagnation has not been reached so opportunities exist to increase tourism. The logistic model predicts 7.2 million tourists in 2015 but time series models of ARIMA and VAR improve the prediction and explain the data. The ARIMA (2, 2, 2) fits well while the VAR lead to Granger causalities … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 10 Sep 2012 · 7,863 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Water Properties and Geostrophic Currents in Fiji Waters Before and After Tropical Cyclone GeneShivneel Prasad, Than Aung, Awnesh SinghProblem statement: Water properties influence ocean primary production and drive the ocean food chain. This study depicts changes in temperature and salinity and its effects on geostrophic currents near Fiji before and after Tropical Cyclone (TC) Gene. Approach: Available Argo float data from 6 January-4 February 2008 were used for analysis since TC Gene passed the area on 28 January … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStable Nitrogen Isotopic Changes in Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Induced by its Growth TemperatureZhou Feng Wang, Wei Guo Liu, Rui Juan HaoThe nitrogen dynamics of plants can be quantified using the variation in their δ15N level. This reveals details of plant physiological characteristics and the relationship between plants and their growth conditions. To better understand plant nitrogen dynamics and the effects of external temperature changes on their nitrogen isotopic composition, we investigated the δ15N characteristics in Triticum aestivum and its mother … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2017 · 8,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting of Humidity of Some Selected Stations from the Northern Part of Bangladesh: An Application of SARIMA ModelMd. Moyazzem Hossain, Md. Atikur Rahman, Md. Zahirul Islam, Ajit Kumar MajumderCommunity risk from natural hazards and climate change depends largely on physical and climatic settings of an area, socio-economic condition of a community and the magnitude, duration and consecutiveness of the hazard or change itself. Impacts of climate change can be characterized by increasing temperatures, rainfall, humidity changes and climate related extreme events such as floods, cyclone, droughts, sea level … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 10 May 2016 · 8,619 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,818 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation and Analysis of Output Gap: An Application of Structural Vector Autoregression and Hodrick-Prescott-FmethodsSaeed Dehghan Khavari, Seyed Hossein MirjaliliIn this study we examined output gap in the Iranian economy. The main question of the study is that how much is seasonal output gap in Iranian Economy and which factor affects gap variation. The other question is that whether using HP-F as a statistical based method for estimating output gap, provide different result than using SVAR as theory based … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 27 Aug 2012 · 7,899 accessesView PDFCite
