Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCattle Raising Practices in North-West CambodiaSophany Morm, Koemseang Nhuong, Vibol Peuo et al.We aimed to assess current cattle farming practices in northwest Cambodia in terms of economy, practical management, productivity, and sustainability. The study sites were selected in four provinces (Pursat, Battambang, Pailin, and Banteay Meanchey) with 316 cattle livestock farmers interviewed as representative samples using systematic sampling. A stratified sampling method was utilized. Data were analyzed and descriptive statistics was used … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2024 · 6,320 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractGully Morphological Assessment and Anthropogenic Determinants in Urban and Rural Settlements of Upper Imo River Basin (UIRB) South Eastern NigeriaNnamdi Christian ChiboGully erosion have been proven to vary both in terms of size and number in urban and rural settlements and is caused by factors related to both human and natural phenomenon. This study assessed the gully morphological development in an urban and rural settlement with the view of finding the settlement that is more vulnerable to gully erosion development. It … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 19 Dec 2022 · 5,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Analysis of Longitudinal Ordinal Data Using Non-Identifiable Multivariate Probit ModelsXiao ZhangMultivariate probit models have been explored foranalyzing longitudinal ordinal data. However, the inherent identification issuein multivariate probit models requires the covariance matrix of the underlyinglatent multivariate normal variables to be a correlation matrix and thushinders the development of efficient Bayesian sampling methods. It is knownthat non-identifiable models may produce Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)samplers with better convergence and mixing than … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 14 Nov 2022 · 6,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecies Assemblages and Distribution of Dinoflagellate Cysts from three Estuaries Sediment’s of Makassar Strait, Eastern IndonesiaNita Rukminasari, Akbar TahirMakassar Strait encompasses high fisheries resources and high biodiversity and primary productivity. Algae blooms often occur in these areas, but there is a lack of studies that have been carried out on HABs in these locations specifically determining the collection and abundance of dinocyst. The study aimed to determine species assemblages of dinoflagellate cysts from three estuaries of Makassar Strait. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 8 May 2021 · 6,325 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of the Concentrations of Metals Found in three types of Teff SamplesAbraha GebregewergisTeff (Eragrostis tef (Zuccagni)) is a self-pollinated, annual, warm season cereal crop, believed to have originated in Ethiopia and have been domesticated and used throughout the world due to its excellent nutritional value as grains for human consumption and as forage for livestock. The aim of this study was to determine the concentration levels of metals in teff samples across … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 3 May 2021 · 7,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Decreasing Temperature on Soil Microbial Activity in a Boreal Shield EcozoneAlistar Moy, Kabwe NkongoloAlthough the focus on warming is imperative to address climate change, addressing the effects of cooling is arguably just as relevant in characterizing the enzyme response to temperature fluctuations. In this study, the response of enzyme activity to diminishing temperatures in the field was evaluated. The targeted sites were located in the City of Greater Sudbury in Northern Ontario, Canada. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2022 · 6,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoil Fertility Index on Various Rice Field Management Systems in Central Java, IndonesiaHaryuni, Atinnajah Kamalasari, Hery Widijanto, SupriyadiThe purpose of this research was to assess the condition of soil fertility and compare the soil fertility index in various rice field management systems. This research was conducted from July until December 2018 in the rice fields of Girimarto District, Wonogiri Regency with a survey method and land sampling by purposive sampling (intentionally) at a depth of 0-20 cm … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2020 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing a Hierarchical Weibull model to Predict Failure Strength of Different Glass Edge ProfilesDavid Thomas Kinsella, Johan LindströmThe edge strength of glass is analyzed using a Weibull statistical framework based on 78 data samples from a range of experiments recorded in literature. Based on the analysis, a 45 MPa strength value (computed as the lower bound in a one-sided confidence interval at the 75% level for the 5-percentile in the distribution) could be conservatively used with arrised, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2020 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTemporal Variations in Abundance and Species Richness of Zooplankton with Emphasis on Ichthyoplankton in the Subtidal Waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Northwestern Arabian Gulf of the ROPME Sea AreaMohammad Ali, Matrah Al-Mutairi, M.N.V. Subrahmanyam et al.Zooplankton, including the ichthyoplankton, abundance and species richness over time in the subtidal waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Kuwait Bay, were sampled and quantified from September 2016 to August 2017. At the same period, physicochemical measurements (i.e., water temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations) occurred. A total of 9 larval fish families were identified: Acropomatidae, Bregmacerotidae, Bythitidae, Clupeidae, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 6 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Chlorophyll-an in a Small Reservoir by Landsat 7 ImageryMaryam Ghashghaie, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid EslamianChlorophyll-a (chla) is a source of water pollution. Monitoring the quality of water in reservoirs is necessary to take any action for protecting the water quality. Traditional methods of sampling are usually costly and time consuming. Also they need skillful labors and some areas are out of reach or sampling at those areas is dangerous. Remote sensing technology could solve … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Apr 2018 · 8,325 accessesView PDFCite
