Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Fertilization and Clipping of Phlomis fruticosa L. on a Phryganic Ecosystem: The Case of Thesprotia, Northwest GreeceCh. Roukos, K. Papanikolaou, E. Nikolaou et al.This study examined the effectiveness of various shrub control treatments (N+P fertilization, clipping of Phlomis fruticosa and clipping combined with N+P fertilization), to reduce shrub cover and encourage the growth of palatable herbaceous vegetation. Dry matter production and Crude Protein (CP) content of palatable herbaceous vegetation were determined annually from 2004 to 2006. Experimental plots received rains of 691.7, 532.9 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Plant Density on Flowering Date, Yield and Quality Attribute of Bush Beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) under Center Pivot Irrigation SystemSamih AbubakerThis research evaluates six different planting densities (10∗30, 20∗30, 30∗30, 40∗30, 50∗30, 60∗30) of bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.), Bronco variety and their impacts on yield, earliness and quality attributes using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) under central pivot irrigation system in the southern part of Jordan during 2007 growing season. Although, the highest planting density (10∗30 cm) gave the highest … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEngineering Properties of Locally Manufactured Burnt Brick Pavers for Agrarian and Rural Earth RoadsEmmanuel Akintunde OkunadeThis study explored the possibility of employing burnt bricks produced locally by completely traditional methods as pavers on unpaved agrarian and rural earth roads in indigent communities. The pavers would eliminate the problems on such roads of being waterlogged and impassible during the rainy season months and those of environmental and health hazards from raised dust during the dry season … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpidemiology 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Photochemical Smog Pollution in Jakarta Metropolitan, IndonesiaDollaris R. Suhadi, M. Awang, M. N. Hassan et al.An analysis of photochemical smog pollution in Jakarta was attempted using data from the existing air quality monitoring stations. Ground-level ozone potential is high in Jakarta due to the high traffic emissions of ozone precursors and the favorable surface meteorological conditions. Despite the frequent missing data during the 1996-1999 monitoring, which resulted in lower ozone values, ozone episodes were significantly … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite

Olatunji, Oladele Osibanjo, Olalekan S. Fatoki et al.Metallurgical industries are pollution “hot spots” for emission of dust, particulates of heavy metals and gaseous contaminants at levels that can be injurious to man and environment. The atmospheric levels of selected heavy metals around Ajaokuta Steel Company Nigeria were assessed using barks of Parkia biglobosa trees. The tree barks were randomly collected during wet and dry seasons, sorted and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2016 · 7,810 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.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Drought Stress on Growth and Yield of Soybean (Glycine max L.) Genotypes in Northern GhanaIsaac Kwahene Addai, Alhassan Bawa, Maganoba CharlesStudies on induced mutation were conducted and the results indicated that stable, but desirable soybean mutant genotypes with improved agronomic traits have been produced. A series of evaluations of these mutant genotypes had earlier on been carried out and high-yielding ones such as 150, 200, 250, and 300 Gy have been identified. In the present study, the above genotypes were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2023 · 6,777 accessesView PDFCite
