Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Vegetation Dynamics using Long-Term Normalized Difference Vegetation Index Time-SeriesTamara Bellone, Piero Boccardo, Francesca PerezProblem statement: The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is the most extensively used satellite-derived index of vegetation health and density. Since climate is one of the most important factors affecting vegetation condition, satellite-derived vegetation indexes have been often used to evaluate climatic and environmental changes at regional and global scale. The proposed study attempted to investigate the temporal vegetation dynamics … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTPAL: A Protocol for Node Authentication in IoTMohamad Faiz Razali, Mohd Ezanee Rusli, Norziana Jamil, Salman YussofSecure communication in Low power and Lossy Network (LLN) requires the authentication of the identities of nodes for that node to join the network. Since LLN may consist of many different nodes, where some nodes may contain sensitive and subtle information such as military data, monitoring data, or health data, that node needs to be authenticated before it can deliver … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 30 Oct 2018 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Ozone Concentrations Using Box-Jenkins ARIMA Modeling in MalaysiaWan Rozita Wan Mahiyuddin, Nur Izzah Jamil, Zamtira Seman et al.Time series analysis and forecasting has become a major tool in many applications in air pollution and environmental management fields. Among the most effective approaches for analyzing time series data is the model introduced by Box and Jenkins. In this study, we used Box-Jenkins methodology to build Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model on the average of monthly ozone data … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 25 May 2018 · 8,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Content of the Grassland Soil around Katima Mulilo Municipal Solid Wastes Dumpsite, NamibiaJ. Abah, P. Mashebe, S.A. OnjefuThe effects of open wastes dumpsites on the immediate vicinity continue to generate safety concern. This study determined the levels of lead, chromium, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, cobalt, copper and manganese in soil samples collected at two depths: 0-15 and 15-30 cm within and around Katima Mulilo municipal solid wastes dumpsite and a control site. The samples were digested according to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 18 Mar 2017 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBenthic Macro-Invertebrate Survey in Little Beaver Creek, Kaw Lake WatershedDejene AlemayehuThe Kaw Nation Environmental Department, as part of the water quality monitoring parameters in its non-point source pollution project conducted a benthic macro-inventebrat sampling and taxonomic classification as a stream bioassessment of Little Beaver and Bear Creeks. Little Beaver Creek is located in the tall grass prairie of Kay County, Oklahoma. It is one of the tributary creeks that enter … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2016 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLead in Meat and Meat Products Consumed by the Population in SlovakiaLukáčová Anetta, Golian JozefThe presence of heavy metals in food is the consequence of atmosphere contamination of polluted soil, waters and results in contaminated feed with heavy metals. The lead concentrations depend on the environmental conditions and the food production methods. The monitoring of lead concentration in meat is important for human health. The aim of this study was to determine the level … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,928 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE DETECTION OF OPEN AND SHORT FAULT IN SWITCHED RELUCTANCE MOTOR WITH CLASSIFICATIONV. S. Chandrika, A. Ebenezer JeyakumarSwitched reluctance motors are tremendously increasing in usage. Monitoring the motor performance online is essential, in order to maintain the health of the motor as well as for a continual application process carried out by the SRM. Though certain fault detection methods are available based on comparator circuits, those methods are inefficient, because they need human attention to identify the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 23 Jan 2014 · 6,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand Degradation and Preventive Measures From the Perspective of the StakeholdersMosayeb Heshmati, Arifin Abdu, Nik Muhamad Majid, J. ShamshuddinLand degradation at the catchment scale in Iran is widespread, usually assumed to be accelerated by the activities of local inhabitants. Social issues such as low income, poverty and low level of welfare and education contribute to land degradation. A study was conducted to identify the causes of land degradation in Merek catchment, Iran and to propose appropriate measures to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
