Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsManagement of Renewable Energies and Environmental ProtectionRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.The purpose of this project is to present an overview of renewable energy sources, major technological developments and case studies, accompanied by applicable examples of the use of sources. Renewable energy is the energy that comes from natural resources: The wind, sunlight, rain, sea waves, tides, geothermal heat, regenerated naturally, automatically. Greenhouse gas emissions pose a serious threat to climate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2017 · 8,106 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGeneral Circulation in the Malacca Strait and Andaman Sea: A Numerical Model StudySyamsul Rizal, Peter Damm, Mulyadi A. Wahid et al.In the Andaman Sea and Malacca Strait, as in other parts of the Indian Ocean, the seasonal change of the wind plays a most important role: the south-west (hereafter SW) is monsoon active from June through September and the north-east (hereafter NE) monsoon is active from December through February. During the NE monsoon the winds are directed from the north … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 11 Aug 2012 · 18,566 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 7,045 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model With Multiquadtree MeshesGregorio Posada Vanegas, Rodolfo Silva Casarín, Sébastien de BryeThis study presents a three dimensional model for the transport of conservative contaminants, which can be used for bodies of water which are affected by winds and/or tides. The model solves the equation of mass transport, based on results obtained using a hydrodynamic model for shallow waters that works in a finite volume scheme and a type of hierarchical grid, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,578 accessesView PDF Cite
