Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSedimentology and Ichnology of Late Oligocene Delta Front Reservoir Sandstone Deposit, Greater Ughelli Depobelt, Niger DeltaRaphael Oaikhena Oyanyan, Michael Ndubuisi OtiSedimentological and ichnological study of cored reservoir sands correlated with wireline logs between two wells, 0.8 km distance apart along dip direction, enabled vertical and cross sectional facies variability assessment aimed at determining intra sand-body continuity in longitudinal or down-dip direction; and sub-environments of deposition and factors that controlled depositional processes. Ten lithofacies described 62 meters cores of the reservoir … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 30 Jul 2015 · 7,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeophysical and Geological Studies of the Spread and Industrial Quality of Okurike Barite DepositAnthony E. Akpan, Ebong D. Ebong, Stephen E. Ekwok, Sackey JosephInvestors have been avoiding the Okurike Barite due to paucity of information on its economic worth in spite of the high demand for barites by the local industries. This study was embarked upon to determine the spread and industrial quality of the barite deposit in order to bridge the information gap. The Okurike Barite mineralised site was investigated using geophysical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING SOIL RESPIRATION AS AN INDICATOR OF SOIL MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN RECLAIMED METAL CONTAMINATED LANDSKassandre Goupil, Kabwe NkongoloMining, roasting as well as smelting of these elements have caused sulphur dioxide fumigations and metal particulate depositions which have led to various detrimental effects on the overall environmental quality of the Greater Sudbury region. Soil amendment and revegetation within the Greater Sudbury Region were initiated to restore the damage land. Several methods have been used to assess the progress … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 11 Jul 2014 · 8,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING THE HABITAT SUITABILITY OF TWO DIFFERENT ARTIFICIAL WETLAND HABITATS USING AVIAN COMMUNITY STRUCTURESM. Zakaria, M. N. RajparArtificial wetlands have become highly important habitat for a variety of bird species particularly waterbirds due to loss and degradation of natural wetlands. Avian community structures in two artificial wetland habitats i.e., man-made marsh and lake were investigated to identify the suitability of the habitats for avian species, habitat preference and food resources. Distance sampling point count method detected 35272 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOCORRENCE OF MISCHOCYTTARUS ROTUNDICOLLIS (VESPIDAE) IN MANGROVE SWAMPS ATTRACTED BY FISH IN DECOMPOSITIONJose Antonio Batista-Da-Silva, Antonio Edesio Almeida de SouzaVespidae is an important insect family that is among the largest predators of other insects in natural environments. This study in mangrove swamps was carried out in order to know if social wasp, Mischocyttarus (Mischocyttarus) rotundicollis could be attracted by fish (sardine) in decomposition. The insects were collected in mangrove swamps in Itaborai, every two weeks, totaling 72 samples from … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2013 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite
