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
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMars Could have Enough Molecular Oxygen to Support LifeRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuThere is a recently introduced study that proposes the idea of the possibility of salty water somewhere on the surface of the planet Mars or immediately near the surface but in the basement of the planet at a relatively small depth. The study illustrates the possibility of O2 oxygen dissolved in salt water, oxygen needed to support breathing oxygen, microbes … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2019 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormation of Post-Fire Water Repellent Layers on Nothofagus glauca (Hualo) Forests, After the Historical “Las Máquinas” Wildfire in South-Central ChilePablo A. Garcia-Chevesich, Eduardo Martínez, Alejandro García et al.The Chilean summer of 2017 was the worst wildfire season by far. Hundreds of wildfires burned a total of more than half a million hectares of forested land (native forests and forest plantations). A significant portion of the burned area was occupied by Hualo (Nothofagus glauca (Phil.) Krasser), a native forest species widely distributed in central Chile. Using the water-drop-penetration-time … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2019 · 9,391 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcetylation Process and Antioxidant Activity of a Polysaccharide from Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) LeavesYiting Xue, Xiao Ding, Ze Zhang et al.Chemical modifications of polysaccharides can provide an opportunity to obtain new agents with possible therapeutic uses. In this study, a water-soluble polysaccharide extracted from Loquat Leaves (coded LLPs) was purified by the column chromatography, which was used to investigate its acetylation process by the acetic anhydride method. The Degree of Substitution (DS) was used as the index, the effect of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2021 · 7,059 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 abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,139 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractUnderstanding the Relationship between Aquaculture and Poverty: The Case of Gurudaspur, NatoreSaman Saad, Raisa Bashar, Farah Yeasmin, Nazmul Ahsan KhanAquaculture is perceived as a source of income and economic raise in several small towns and villages of Bangladesh and Gurudaspur of Natore region is no different.
