Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethane Emissions by Reed Formations on the Azov Sea CoastDmitry Nikolaevich Gar'kusha, Viktor Vladimirovich SukhorukovMapping of reed zones including both single-species formations and mixed formations of reeds and cattails has been done to assess methane emissions produced by reed formations growing on the coast and adjacent areas of the Azov Sea. In particular zones full-scale experiments have been carried out in order to measure methane emissions above common reed (Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2019 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeep Erosion by Continental Ice Sheets: A Northern Missouri River Drainage Basin Perspective: North AmericaEric ClausenWhile accepting some erosion by continental ice sheets most geologists reject a previously proposed deep erosion by continental ice sheets hypothesis, yet common sense logic suggests continental ice sheets should have eroded much more than they are usually given credit for. Such situations arise in scientific communities when an accepted paradigm cannot adequately explain significant observable evidence. A new and … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2019 · 8,889 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Concerns and Toxicogenetic Endpoints of Priority Substances (PSs) and Contaminants of Emerging Concerns (CECs): A Comprehensive ReviewDe-Sheng Pei, Chun-Di Chen, Naima Hamid et al.Priority Substance (PSs) and Contaminant of Emerging Concerns (CECs) exhibited a wide range of environmental and public health concerns worldwide. This review summarized the documented studies related to the current surface water occurrence, spatial distribution, ecological risks and toxicity of selected PSs, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and CECs, such as Di(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) and Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 10 Jul 2018 · 8,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping of Flood Risk Zones in Ala River Basin Akure, NigeriaOlajire Olabanji Olatona, O.A. Obiora-Okeke, J.R. AdewumiFloods are water induced disasters that lead to temporary inundation of dry land and cause serious damages in the affected location such as loss of lives and properties and destruction of infrastructures. Nigeria has experienced a lot of flood incidences and the impact of flood has also increased due to population growth coupled with uncontrolled developmental practices. The result of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2018 · 9,248 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Aliphatic Hydrocarbons in Sediments of Shatt Al-Arab River, Southern Iraq, North East Arabian GulfWisam Abdul-Ameer FaridShatt Al-Arab River is one of the important rivers for water supply, industry and irrigation in Basrah City, south of Iraq. It's also supply drinking water to users in the region. Despite the significance of this river, there is a lack of previous studies dealing with petroleum pollution especially for geochemical studies of organic matter in the river sediments using … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 29 Jan 2018 · 7,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping, Characterization and Dispersion of Metallic Pollutants within a Catchment of Illegal Gold Mining Activities in GhanaWiafe Samuel, Richard Buamah, Helen Essandoh, Lawrence DarkwahThe illegal gold mining activities prevalent in most part of Ghana have caused substantial havoc to the environment especially water bodies which serve as sources of water for domestic, industrial and agricultural purposes. The Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) recently shut down their water treatment plant due to the extreme pollution and high cost of treatment. This study focusses on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2018 · 8,181 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of the Drainage Slope Experimental Study on the Manning Roughness CoefficientKaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Hossein Gholami, Shahide Dehghan, Morteza SoltaniIt was Determined the current persistence components were significant in hydraulic designs of highland zone with sharp slopes. It was defined to examine the consequence of gradient, rapidity, depth and dimension of coarseness on the manning coarseness factor in this superficial river area. This is an investigational education about manning coarseness defined for highland zones protected by elements in three … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2021 · 6,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating the Scouring Depth of Bridge Pier Using Self-Organizing Neural Networks (SOM)Abolfazl Rafat, Gholam Abbas Barani, Amineh NaseriScouring is caused as a result of erosion of river bed by water flow and materials carried by water. This research estimates the scouring depth using self-organizing neural network (SOM). The obtained findings were compared with findings of other models. It was found that self- organizing neural network (SOM) has higher correlation coefficient (0.98), compared to other methods. It was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 27 Nov 2017 · 7,512 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation 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 · 7,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhylogenetic of ERIC-DNA Fingerprinting and New Sequencing of Aeromonas Species and V. Cholerae DNAHawraa Natiq Kabroot AL-Fatlawy, Hawraa Abdalameer Aldahhan, Ali Hmood AlsaadiThe current study included 44 isolate of A. hydrophila, A. sobria and V. cholerae and other bacteria isolated from stool samples and environmental samples (Kufa river water and hospital environmental samples). ERIC DNA Fingerprinting with ERIC primers pairs generated distinct amplification bands ranging in size from (87 bp to 8000 kb). The 44 isolates produced 93 different patterns by ERIC … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 5 May 2017 · 7,803 accessesView PDFCite
