Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF THE WIND SPEED EXTRAPOLATION LAWS FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS METEOROLOGICAL SITESDalila Khalfa, Abdelouaheb Benretem, Lazher Herous, Issam MeghlaouiIncreasing knowledge on wind shear models to strengthen their reliability appears as a crucial issue, markedly for energy investors to accurately predict the average wind speed at different turbine hub heights and thus the expected wind energy output. This is particularly helpful during the feasibility study to abate the costs of a wind power project. The extrapolation laws were found … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,439 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 abstractDetecting Hornbeam Trees Phenological Characteristics of Mountain ForestSasan Babaei Kafaki, Asadollah Mataji, Seyed Armin HashemiProblem statement: Phenology is the study of the seasonal occurrence of developmental or life cycle events, such as bud break, flowering, or autumn leaf drop. The proposed study attempted to quantify changes in Carpinus betulus L. phenology of deciduous broad leaf forest between the years 2003-2006. Approach: Phenological studies were fulfilled during four years as from January 2003-December 2006 by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,273 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeasonal Abundance and Species Composition of Nephotettix spp., in Endemic and Non-Endemic Areas of Rice Tungro Virus Disease in South Sulawesi Province, IndonesiaAndi Nasruddin, Muhammad Danial Rahim, FatahuddinRice tungro disease is semi-persistently transmitted by five species of leafhopper. Nephotettix virescens Distant and N. nigropictus Stal. (Homoptera: Cicadellidae) are predominant species in South Sulawesi with vectoring efficiencies of 83 and 27%, respectively. Relative composition of those species affects the RTV incidence in the field. The purpose of the study was to determine the presence and abundance of those … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2016 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Variations and New Species Description of Genus Rousettus Bat from Gunung Duasudara Sanctuary, North Sulawesi, IndonesiaHanry Jefry Lengkong, Endang Arisoesilaningsih, Luchman Hakim, SudartoBats belongs to Pteropodidae Family that spreaded evenly in Indonesia. Genus Rousettus have their morphological variances among its own species based on characteristics on each species. Among them there is fruit-feeding bats of from genus Rousettus (Chiroptera: Pteropodidae) that have many variances of morphology among its own species. This study was aimed to identify the morphological variations and its sex … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 14 Apr 2016 · 8,141 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Analysis of the Integration of Wind Turbines into the Design of the Built EnvironmentHassam Nasarullah Chaudhry, John Kaiser Calautit, Ben Richard HughesThe effect of wind distribution on the architectural domain of the Bahrain Trade Centre was numerically analysed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Using the numerical data, the power generation potential of the building integrated wind turbines was determined in response to the prevailing wind direction. Simulating a reference wind speed of 6 m/s, the findings from the study quantified an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObservation Modeling for Continuous Predicting Global and Diffuse Solar Radiation on Horizontal SurfaceSomporn Hongkong, Singthong PattanasethanonMathematical modeling for continuous prediction of solar energy is inevitable for energy systems. General, existing models are mostly empirical and data dependent. This article has to present a variable model for predicting global and diffuse solar radiation on the horizontal plane. The model considered in this study has applied Hidden Markov Model (HMM) with two observations. The databases were measured … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 23 May 2013 · 6,797 accessesView PDFCite
