Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis on 16-Channels Wavelength Division Multiplexing in Free Space Optical Transmission under Tropical Regions EnvironmentSalasiah Hitam, Siti Norziela Suhaimi, Ahmad Shukri Mohd Noor et al.Problem statement: Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) is a promising technique for meeting the growing demand for increased bandwidth and various types of services in the optical access network. For wide area or metropolitan networks, fibers are deployed to provide huge bandwidth. In access networks, the fiber-to-the-home will partially solve the last mile problem. However, some environmentally sensitive area such as housing areas, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2011 · 10,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGPS Ionospheric Total Electron Content and Scintillation Measurements during the October 2003 Magnetic StormMohammad Awad Momani, Takialddin A. Al Smadi, Farouq M. Al Taweel, Khaldoon A. GhaidanProblem Statement: Ionospheric scintillations, cause significant effects on satellite signals for communication and navigation in equatorial region and polar regions mainly during sever magnetic storms periods. This phenomenon is not fully understood due to few studies performed. The study investigates variability of Total Electron Content (TEC) and ionospheric scintillation during October 2003 magnetic storm over Antarctica using ground based GPS … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Evapotranspiration Variability and Trends in the Arabian PeninsulaMohammad ElNesr, Abdulrahman Alazba, Majed Abu-ZreigProblem statement: Climate variability is receiving much attention recently because it has significant effects on water resources and therefore on the livelihood of society especially in water scarce countries such the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Approach: The aim of this study was to explore changes in the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) using data from 27 weather stations through years 1980-2008 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Rice Yield and Apparent Electrical Conductivity of Paddy SoilsM.H. Ezrin, M.S.M. Amin, A.R. Anuar, W. AimrunProblem statement: Understanding the relationships between rice yield and soil properties such as bulk electrical conductivity is of critical importance in precision farming. The apparent Electrical Conductivity of soil (ECa) is influenced by a combination of physico-chemical properties including soluble salts, clay content and mineralogy, soil water content, bulk density, organic matter and soil temperature. Accordingly, ECa is considered as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,545 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponse of Root Properties to Tripartite Symbiosis between Lucerne (Medicago sativa L.), Rhizobia and Mycorrhiza Under Dry Organic Farming ConditionsM. R. Ardakani, G. Pietsch, A. Moghaddam et al.Problem statement: It is generally considered that root turnover is a major contributor to organic matter and mineral nutrient cycles in organic managed agroecosystems. Approach: This study designed to investigate whether microbial activity could affect on root properties of Lucerne in an organically managed field under dry weather conditions. The trial was laid out as a factorial experiment in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Comfort Assessment: A Case Study at Malaysian Automotive IndustryA. R. Ismail, N. Jusoh, R. Zulkifli et al.Problem statement: Thermal comfort has a great influence on the productivity and satisfaction of indoor building occupants. The exposure to excessive heat during work may cause discomfort and contributed to low productivity among workers. Malaysia known with its hot and humid weather where in most of the survey study published indicated that workers in Malaysia automotive industries had exposed to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,576 accessesView PDFCite
