Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Precipitation Fluctuation on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to compare the effect of extremely different rainfall conditions on soil carbon storage of lowland tropical peat swamp forest. Therefore, under these natural rainfall gradient, the objectives of this study were to determine whether rainfall affects soil carbon storage of a tropical peat swamp forest and to determine what correlations between variables occurs which stimulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntegrated Modeling for Flood Hazard Mapping Using Watershed Modeling SystemSeyedeh S. Sadrolashrafi, Thamer A. Mohamed, Ahmad R.B. Mahmud et al.In this stduy, a new framework which integrates the Geographic Information System (GIS) with the Watershed Modeling System (WMS) for flood modeling is developed. It also interconnects the terrain models and the GIS software, with commercial standard hydrological and hydraulic models, including HEC-1, HEC-RAS, etc. The Dez River Basin (about 16213 km2) in Khuzestan province, IRAN, is domain of study … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 10,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExponential Smoothing Method of Base Flow Separation and Its Impact on Continuous Loss EstimatesGurudeo Anand Tularam, Mahbub IlaheeThe calculation of loss is vital for design flood estimation models and in order to estimate continuing loss (CL), proportional loss (PL) and volumetric runoff coefficient, the surface runoff has to be separated from the total given in a stream flow hydrograph. To obtain the volume of surface runoff from the streamflow hydrograph, baseflow separation becomes necessary and in this … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 8,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEarth-To-Space Improved Model for Rain Attenuation Prediction at Ku-BandMandeep Singh Jit Singh, S. S.I. Hassan, M. F. Ain et al.A model for predicting rain attenuation on earth-to-space was developed by using the measurement data obtained from tropical and equatorial region. The proposed rain attenuation model uses the complete rainfall rate cumulative distribution as input data. It was shown that significant improvements in terms of prediction error over existing attenuation model obtained. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRain Events Detection using Energy Variation of Commercial Microwave Links AttenuationWend Yam Serge Boris Ouedraogo, Moumouni Djibo, Ali Doumounia et al.In this study, we propose a new method for detecting wet periods by using telecommunications Commercial Microwave Links (CML). The purpose of the study is to automatically find rain time slots. The attenuation of the microwave signal, propagating between a transmitting antenna and a receiving one, due to the variations of the climatic conditions over the link, is a non-stationary … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 20 Aug 2022 · 6,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInvestigation of Climatological Components on Runoff Modeling using SWATHamid-Reza Rabiefar, Sayed-Reza Alvankar, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIt was planned most hydraulic projects, for instance barriers, it was defined the overflow of the rivers. If the river absences any position to measure the yield, the hydraulic models can be utilized to estimate it. SWAT is widely-used computerized mockups. It was required to feed such influential climatological information as precipitation, temperature, wind speed, solar radiation and relative humidity, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2020 · 6,114 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Development of Geo-Information System for Finding Potential Zones of Water using Environmental Parameters and EngineeringN. Sundara Rajulu, M. RajaniProblem statement: Water is a major natural resource for all the living beings in the world. People’s lives and livelihood depends on water. Most of the human beings in this world use ground water for drinking purpose. The reason behind that is the ground water is pollution less or less polluted when compared with the surface water. The need for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2012 · 7,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Efficient Weather Forecasting System using Radial Basis Function Neural NetworkTiruvenkadam Santhanam, A. C. SubhajiniProblem statement: Accurate weather forecasting plays a vital role for planning day to day activities. Neural network has been use in numerous meteorological applications including weather forecasting. Approach: A neural network model has been developed for weather forecasting, based on various factors obtained from meteorological experts. This study evaluates the performance of Radial Basis Function (RBF) with Back Propagation (BPN) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 7,754 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Impacts of Agricultural Supports for Climate Change Adaptation: Farm Level Assessment Study on Paddy FarmersMd. Mahmudul Alam, Mohd Ekhwan bin Toriman, Chamhuri Siwar et al.Problem statement: The climatic factors are changing very rapidly in Malaysia. To adapt farmers with the changes, government and other external agencies are providing several kinds of supports, but yet the adaptability is not that high. Approach: To analyze the climate change adaptability of the farmers in Malaysia, this study uses primary data that have been collected through questionnaire survey … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 8,677 accessesView PDFCite
