Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Comparative Assessment of Hydroponically Grown Cereal Crops for the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater and the Production of Fish FeedA. M. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, A. SnowHydroponically grown wheat, barley and oats were examined for their ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. Wheat, barley and oats seeds were germinated in water in a hydroponics system. The seedlings then received wastewater from an aquaculture system stocked with Arctic charr. During the experiment, the crops grew rapidly and fairly uniformly and showed no signs of mineral deficiency … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 9,174 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWater Contamination in Livestock Production: Impacts, Causes, and Mitigation StrategiesMarothi Vincent Sebela, Khetho Ratshilumela NemutandaniWater contamination poses a significant threat to sustainable livestock production, directly affecting animal health, productivity, and product safety. This systematic review synthesizes existing literature on the impacts, causes, and mitigation strategies of water contamination in livestock production systems.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeavy Metals Pollution of Owerri and Asuokofi Rivers in Konongo, GhanaWiafe Samuel, Buamah Richard, Essandoh HelenThe effects of polluted water and soil resulting from anthropogenic activities have impacted negatively on the livelihood of both human and animal existence. A thorough study was therefore required to ascertain the extent of pollution caused by the undertakings of these anthropogenic activities particularly within the Asante Akim Central Municipality of Ghana. This study assesses the dispersions and the extent … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2021 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Comparative Study of the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater Using Water Hyacinth, Water Lettuce And Parrot’s FeatherA. M. Snow, A. E. GhalyWater hyacinth, water lettuce and parrot’s feather plants were examined for their ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater at two retention times. During the experiment, the aquatic plants grew rapidly and appeared healthy with green color. At hydraulic retention times (HRTs) of 6 and 12 days, the average water hyacinth, water lettuce and parrot’s feather yields were 83, 51 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWetland Ontology Modeling to Apply the Context-Aware Technology for Application Service EnvironmentJ. I. Gwi-Hwan, O. H. Ryum-DuckProblem statement: Due to recent advances in the IT industry, the importance of ontology has increased as a tool of knowledge representation at home or abroad for implementation of intelligent and personalized service system such as next generation semantic web environment and ubiquitous computing environment. But, although the importance of wetlands are being recognized, systematic management is still not enough … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 13 Jan 2012 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Nutritive Value of Wastewater Grown Barley and its Utilization in Fish FeedA.M. Snow, A. E. GhalyThe feasibility of using wastewater grown barley plants as a component of fish feed was evaluated. The barley plants were grown in a hydroponics system on wastewater from a recirculating aquaculture facility. The effects of wastewater application rate on plant growth and pollution potential reduction were investigated. At the end of the experiment, the average crop heights and yields were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Dynamics of Trace Metals Accumulation and Physicochemical Characteristics in Ikpukulu-Ama Creeks, Rivers State, NigeriaDavies Ibienebo Chris, Khang Wen Goh, Davies Imachrist Ibienebo et al.The study examines the spatial-dynamics variability of water parameters and trace metal concentrations between January and June 2023 at the Ikpukulu-Ama sites of the Bonny River, Nigeria. Key parameters analyzed include temperature, salinity, pH, transparency, dissolved oxygen, and trace metals (Ni, Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn) across three sites. The highest temperature, 32.56°C, was recorded at Site 2, indicating potential thermal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 29 Jul 2026 · 499 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydroponic Fodder in Broiler Nutrition: Effects on Economics of Production, Environmental Impacts, Productive Indices, and Health StatusChristian Anayo Mbajiorgu, Ifeanyichukwu Princewill Ogbuewu, Monnye MabelebeleThe projected global population of 9.7 billion by 2050 will escalate the demand for animal protein, intensifying food insecurity. Broilers, being highly efficient in converting grains into protein-rich food, are crucial in meeting the ever-increasing demand for animal proteins. However, broiler production, especially in developing countries, is constrained by low quality and unavailability of conventional feed grains utilized in poultry … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,701 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Context-Aware Temporal Convolutional Network for Water Replacement Prediction in Catfish Biofloc Ponds With Imbalanced Event HandlingYaddarabullah, Inanpi Hidayati Sumiasih, Mutiara Dewi PuspitawatiWater replacement is a biologically critical yet under-automated decision in biofloc-based aquaculture systems. Mistimed actions can destabilize microbial ecosystems, elevate fish mortality, and compromise sustainability through excessive water usage. Traditional rule-based heuristics often fail to account for the nonlinear and multiscale dynamics of pond environments. To address this, we propose a Context-Aware Temporal Convolutional Network (CA-TCN), a rare-event classification framework … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 5 Mar 2026 · 1,669 accessesView PDFCite
