Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSTUDY OF PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SURFACE AND GROUND WATERA.Y. Al-Ghamdi, Mohamed El-Shahate Ismaiel Saraya, A.O. Al-Ghamdi, S.A. ZabinOf all the natural resources, water is unarguably the most essential and precious. Life began in water and life is nurtured by water. Ninety seven percent of the world’s water is found in oceans. Only 2.5% of the world’s water are non-saline fresh water. Saudi Arabia is a desert country with no permanent rivers or lakes and very little rainfall. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 18 Apr 2014 · 7,787 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Treated Wastewater in Terms of Environmental StandardsSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Hossein Gholami, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariThe desired use of refined wastewater has not yet found its proper place in many countries, therefore, achieving a relative equilibrium in the field of urban wastewater evacuation and re-utilizing it is a fundamental principle. And this great matter is not possible except by developing a comprehensive refinery waste management system. The set of measures that have been taken so … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2019 · 7,908 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution to the Study of the Origin of Salinity in Alluvial Aquifer System in the Ain chabro-Hammamet (North-East ALGERIA)K. Seghir, N. KhériciTebessa is located in the Algerian North East. It is characterized by a semi-arid continental climate with an average interannual precipitation of less than 400 mm. It belongs to the Eastern Saharian Atlas field along the Tunisian borders. It is drained by a certain number of the wouady of which Chabro and Bouakous are the most important. The surface area … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,608 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Activity of Methyl tert-butyl Ether in Relation to Soil Microorganisms has a Negative Environmental ImpactGholam H.S. BonjarFuel oxygenates are added to gasoline to enhance combustion efficiency of automobiles and reduce air pollution. Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is the most commonly used oxygenate because of its low cost, high-octane level and ease of blending with gasoline. However, due to its water solubility, high mobility and low biodegradability it leaches in soil subsurface at the speed of groundwater. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,661 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLIMATE CHANGE IMPACT ASSESSMENT ON WATERSHED HYDROLOGY: A COMPARISON OF THREE APPROACHESSomsubhra Chattopadhyay, Manoj K. JhaSeveral methods of impact assessment have been developed over the years which basically incorporate future climate projections of atmospheric-ocean circulation based climate models into the simulation of land surface hydrological processes. This study attempted to evaluate three methods of climate change impact assessment: (a) Frequency perturbation method, (b) direct method and (c) delta change method. A well-calibrated hydrologic model, Soil … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2014 · 8,597 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUptake and Translocation of Iron by Native Tree Species In A Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, R. Cote, A.M. SnowA surface flow wetland was constructed in the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The objectives of this study were: (a) to compare the uptake of iron by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,868 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUptake and Translocation of Manganese by Native Tree Species in a Constructed Wetland Treating Landfill LeachatesA. Snow, A.E. GhalyA surface flow constructed wetland was used to treat stormwater runoff from surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The uptake of manganese by red maple, white birch and red spruce trees growing under flooded soil conditions in the constructed wetland was compared to that of the same trees growing under well drained soil … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,505 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Comparative Assessment of the Characteristics of Saturated Wetland Soil and a Well Drained Forest SoilA. Snow, A. E. GhalyA surface flow wetland was constructed in the Burnside Industrial Park, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding watersheds which are comprised primarily of commercial properties and two former landfills. The aim was to protect a freshwater ecosystem that consists of a 4.6 km long brook and two lakes. A comparative analysis of the pH, total and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,630 accessesView PDF Cite
