Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEVALUATION OF THE ADEQUACY OF THE WIND SPEED EXTRAPOLATION LAWS FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS METEOROLOGICAL SITESDalila Khalfa, Abdelouaheb Benretem, Lazher Herous, Issam MeghlaouiIncreasing knowledge on wind shear models to strengthen their reliability appears as a crucial issue, markedly for energy investors to accurately predict the average wind speed at different turbine hub heights and thus the expected wind energy output. This is particularly helpful during the feasibility study to abate the costs of a wind power project. The extrapolation laws were found … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,439 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMultiple Linear Regression to Predict Electrical Energy Consumption Based on Meteorological Data: Application to Some Sites Supplied by the CEB in TogoApaloo Bara Komla Kpomonè et al.The prediction model developed in this article is based on the use of meteorological variables to estimate the consumption of electrical energy at the substations of the Electric Community of Benin. The objective is to predict this consumption in order to adapt production to it. The posts (Lomé Aflao, Légbasito, and Lomé port) are the targets that were used in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 10 Jun 2024 · 5,785 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAir Quality Interpretation of Four Geographically Distinct Hot Spot States of India-An Appraisal Using Aerosol Optical Depth and Particulate MatterJacob Joshua, Aishwarya Sathyachandran, Chenicherry House SujathaThe application of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer-Aerosol Optical Depth (MODIS-AOD) for Air Quality (AQ) assessment has contributed significantly by making use of a spatiotemporal relationship between ground-level particulate matter and aerosol optical density at both city and state levels. Traditional ground-based site-specific particulate matter monitoring method has found a profound gap in their spatial coverage. Such challenging situations prevail over … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 8 Feb 2023 · 5,883 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPoly-Species Phytocenoses for Ecosystem Restoration of Degraded Soil CoversAlmabek B. Nugmanov, Sergey V. Mamikhin, Khusain Kh. Valiev et al.Agroecological studies are based on the concept that, by understanding ecological processes, it is possible to manage agroecosystems for more sustainable production of more biomass and, thus, protection of natural resources. Many studies in the field of agroecology show that some farming methods can improve soil quality and restore agroecosystems by increasing plant biodiversity. Functional characteristics of plants for the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 22 Jul 2022 · 5,713 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Soils Electrical Resistivity using Artificial Neural Network ApproachKpomonè Komla Apaloo-Bara, Adekunlé Akim Salami, Mawugno Koffi Kodjo et al.The knowledge of the ground electrical resistivity is essential to ensure the protection of electrical and telecommunications networks. However, the monitoring of its values is an expensive task which takes long time. Therefore, its prediction is important. This study investigates on predicting soil electrical resistivity using Artificial Neural Networks. Nine sites of our city (Lome, TOGO) were considered. After characterization … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2019 · 9,518 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGaussian Dispersion Model to Estimate the Dispersion of Particulate Matters (Pm2.5) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentrations on Tribal Land, OklahomaDejene Alemayehu, Francine HackettAir quality in most parts of Kay County is good and unlikely to cause major health problems. However, Kaw Nation wants to know if the concentration of Particulate matters (PM2.5) and Sulfur dioxide (SO2) released from power plants, refinery and carbon black plant in Oklahoma reaches the Tribal land at Kanza Travel Plaza, Braman, Kay Co. Oklahoma. Kanza Travel Plaza … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 8 Dec 2015 · 7,964 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Transport Phenomena on Pollutants Concentration in Mediterranean Tunisian RegionsKarim Bouchlaghem, Blaise Nsom, Jean-Francois DorvilleThe objective of this study is to investigate the origin of the polluted air masses in the Tunisian Mediterranean regions and to characterize the atmospheric conditions and the transport and dispersion mechanisms that give rise to pollution events. For this end, we conducted continuous measurements campaigns of surface ozone concentration and meteorological parameters during summer 2011 using mobile and fixed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 23 Jan 2014 · 6,697 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariation of Surface Ozone Recorded at the Eastern Coastal Region of the Malaysian PeninsulaAida Shafawati Ismail, Mohd Talib Latif, Siti Zawiyah Azmi et al.Problem statement: Variations of ozone (O3) concentrations in the Eastern Coastal Region of the Malaysia peninsula were investigated using data obtained from the Malaysian Department of the Environment. The aim of this study was to determine the monthly and seasonal variations of ozone concentrations at all monitoring sites. This study deals with the air quality data recorded at four air … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,072 accessesView PDF Cite
