Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of a Developed Dispersion Model to Port of BrisbaneSanaz Jahangiri, Natalia Nikolova, Kiril TenekedjievThe emissions from vessels utilising heavy fuel oil include large amounts of nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide and particulate matter, presenting significant health risks to people living near ports. To determine the effect of these emissions on human health, complex atmospheric dispersion modelling using CALPUFF assesses ground-level concentrations at receptors surrounding the sources. This paper demonstrates the application of the methodology … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 12 Oct 2018 · 8,362 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCould Geometry Demystify Patterns of Earth Quakes and Aftershocks? An Answer is YesRamalingam ShanmugamIn this article, a pioneering (geometric) approach based on a new what is named here Glued Bivariate Poisson (GBP) distribution is constructed to demystify the 21st century incidences of earthquakes and their aftershocks. A warning risk index for an earthquake or an aftershock to occur is formulated and computed for each of the thirteen major tectonic plates. This article reports … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2016 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR WEED DETECTION DURING BOTH OF OFF-SEASON AND IN-SEASON IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE CROPPING LANDSHuajian Liu, Sang Heng Lee, Chris SaundersMore than half of the Australian cropping land is no-tillage and weed control within continuous no-tillage agricultural cropping area is becoming more and more difficult. A major problem is that the heavy herbicide usage causes some of more prolific weeds becoming more resistant to the regular herbicides and therefore more powerful and more expensive options are being pursued. To overcome … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproaches to Learning in First Year University PhysicsRachel Wilson, Steve Georgakis, Manjula SharmaProblem statement: In recent decades, discipline specific ways of thinking and knowing have gained increased recognition in understanding learning. However, there has been little empirical research examining student approaches to learning within specific disciplines or, even more specifically, within different streams of study or in response to different curriculum within a discipline. Approach: The aim of this study was to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2012 · 9,219 accessesView PDFCite
