Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Pan Evaporation for Kuwait using Multiple Linear Regression and Time-Series TechniquesJaber AlmedeijThis study attempts to model evaporation for Kuwait under arid conditions by using a wide range of monthly evaporation data, varying from 0.1 to 40 mm/day, from January 1993 to July 2015. Owing to the reason that the well-known theoretical evaporation models presented in the literature have been justified for a much shorter data range, the paper adopts empirical approaches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 8 Jun 2016 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Dynamic Thermal Behavior of Building Envelope in Summer Conditions By Means of in-Field Continuous MonitoringAnna Laura Pisello, Gloria Pignatta, Cristina Piselli et al.The effect of dynamic properties of building opaque envelope in summer conditions is investigated by means of an extensive continuous monitoring of a dedicated experimental field. Two test-buildings, a weather station and two microclimate stations positioned in each test-building represent the experimental field. The prototype buildings have been specifically designed to present the same stationary envelope properties, but different construction … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 25 Apr 2016 · 8,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relationship between Habitat Altitude, Enviromental Factors and Morphological Characteristics of Pluchea Indica, Ageratum Conyzoides and Elephantopus ScaberYuliani, Soemarno, Bagyo Yanuwiadi, Amin Setyo LeksonoAsteraceae family has various benefit as herbal medicine and phytochemical affect (biopesticides). It can grow in different habitats but the morphological and physiological characters of Asteraceae depend on the environmental factor. The aims of the study is to describe the variation of height of stems and width of leaves from three species of Asteraceae family (Pluchea indica, Ageratum conyzoides and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 7,842 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAPPLYING SEASONAL CLIMATE TRENDS TO AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN TANJUNG KARANG, MALAYSIAMohd Ekhwan Toriman, Lee Qiao Yun, Mohd Khairul Amri Kamarudin et al.The North West Selangor Integrated Agriculture Development Agency (NWS-IADA) is the most productive agricultural part in Selangor, Malaysia. This is partly because of the inherent high fertility of the soils and the moderate variable climate. However, with increasing global concern about climate impacts, this article examines relative importance of climate influences on the paddy production rate over 28 years (1980-2008). … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2014 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPartial Least Squares Regression Based Variables Selection for Water Level PredictionsNoraini Ibrahim, Antoni WibowoFloods are common phenomenon in the state of Kuala Krai, specifically in Kelantan-Malaysia. Every year, floods affecting biodiversity on this region and also causing property loss of this residential area. The residents in Kelantan always suffered from floods since the water overflows to the areas adjoining to the rivers, lakes or dams. Months, average monthly rainfall, temperature, relative humidity and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Apr 2013 · 6,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Efficiency Investigation on Heat Recovery System Used in a Solar-Powered Desalination ProcessAouatef Rachdi, Louy Qoaider, Mahmoud Ben-Amara, AmenAllah GuizaniThe aim of this work is to experimentally study, the effect of the heat recovery on water production in a solar desalination process that is working with multiple stage humidification technique. The water production, the temperature and the humidity were tested for such a pilot plant, which operates without and with a heat recovery system. The humidifier efficiency increases with … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 11 Mar 2013 · 7,264 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Climate Change Upon Winter RainfallNuman Shehadeh, Sabah AnanbehClimatic models that project the impact of climate change upon rainfall in the Eastern Mediterranean region predict that the negative impact will be more pronounced upon winter rainfall rather than Fall or Spring rainfall where instability conditions become more pronounced. Those models, also, predict that, due to the great geographical diversity, projected rainfall trends in the above region will show … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Feb 2013 · 7,569 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying Characteristics of the Borneo Canarium odontophyllum (Dabai) FruitDayang Fredalina Basri, Ahmad Fudholi, Mohd Hafidz RuslanThe quality and shelf-life of an underutilized fruits are compromised by the conventional method of drying. We therefore proposed using hot-air chamber to develop the drying curves of Canarium odontophyllum (dabai) fruit. Present study provides evidence of the best mathematical model to demonstrate the drying characteristics of this indigenous fruit and thus, may generate or add to the existing database. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 5 Sep 2012 · 8,946 accessesView PDFCite
