Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDYNAMIC DAYLIGHT AND SOLAR CONTROL IN TROPICAL CLIMATEYaik-Wah LimDaylight is dynamic, thus there is no one common solution for all scenarios. It is more critical in tropical climate where the sky is predominantly intermediate; with inconsistent clouds formations which will influence the presence of direct sunlight and daylight availability. In this study, the potential of dynamic internal shading devices for improving daylighting performances in tropical climate was investigated. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleLong-Term Characterization of Landfill Leachate: Impacts of the Tropical Climate on its CompositionJorge Luiz da Paixão Filho, Miriam Gonçalves MiguelThe disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in sanitary landfills produces leachate, whose composition changes depending on the microbial community and the environmental conditions. However, these changes cannot be observed in sanitary landfill because of the superposition of cells, which makes it difficult to determinate the relationship among the phases of biodegradation of MSW, the composition of the leachate and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 14 Mar 2017 · 8,573 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIntra Urban Air Temperature Distributions in Historic Urban CenterElmira Jamei, Dilshan Remaz OssenThe study investigates the urban heat island effect in Malaysian historic town Malacca through seven mobile traverses, as carried out on 10 December 2011. It aims to identify the intra-urban air temperature differences between heritage core zone, new development area and outskirts of the city. Air temperature variations were also analyzed across three different zones; namely the outskirts, the heritage … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 Aug 2012 · 8,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Stocker Cattle Managed On Pastures Over-Seeded With Annual ForagesMichael Martinez, Daniela Brown, Sidney Garrison et al.The goal of this study was to determine the performance of stocker calves managed on permanent pastures over-seeded with winter and summer annuals. Twenty-one 7-month-old Angus calves (BW = 263 ± 24 kg) sourced from the university farm, were randomly assigned to three treatments. The treatments were: i) Grass Hay Only (GHO; Control; 5 calves), ii) Permanent Pasture Only (PPO; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Aug 2026 · 889 accessesView PDFCite

The aim of this study was to characterize and determine the sexual development of Bos taurus, Bos indicus, and F1 crossbreeds of these two subspecies of bulls and their testicular growth and shape. We observed the evolution of testicular development characteristics and seminal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Jul 2026 · 1,197 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Pest and Diseases on Mangrove Forest Rehabilitation in Indonesia: A ReviewAndi Aznan Aznawi, Mohammad Basyuni et al.Mangroves are the constituent plants of tropical and subtropical intertidal regions of forest communities, comprising a biotic and abiotic environment for ecosystem services. Biotic factors greatly affect the health of mangrove forests, the decline in health in mangrove ecosystems is caused by pests and diseases on the leaves. The presence of pests and diseases that attack mangrove plants resulted in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 9 Jul 2024 · 5,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Increase of Madura Cows Reproduction Performance with Double-Dose Method of Artificial InseminationKuswati, Wike Andre Septian, Khairul Rasyad et al.One of the potencies of Madura cow genetics is its adaptation ability to the tropical climate. Yet in most cases, the reproduction efficiency of the Madura cows has not reached the optimum point. This research examines the use of double-dose artificial insemination compared to a single-dose on Madura cows. The study was conducted in Daramista, Lenteng District, Sumenep Regency, Madura, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 2 Aug 2022 · 6,163 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractPurulent Infectious Myositis: Its Anguish and Ubiquitous!S. Mohan, Mahendra Kumar Meena, Ravi KantPurulent Infection Myositis (PIM) which was formerly called as tropical myositis is an acute or sub-acute primary infection of striated muscles. It affects all age groups, both sexes and occurs in tropical as well as temperate climates. Most frequently encountered culprits are skin commensals like staphylococci aureus. It is predominantly reported in immunocompromised individuals and with pre-existing muscle abnormalities like … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2020 · 6,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Plant Species Suitability for a Substrate-Free Tropical Green RoofBruno R. Silva, André Mantovani, Dulce G. Mantuano et al.Greenroofs reduce building exterior-interior thermal flux and mitigate high internal air temperatures, especially in tropical climates. Tropical greenroofs are given little attention and their use remains restricted to a very low percentage of roofs due to high costs compared to traditional roofs, weight overload (mainly due to the chosen substrate) and potential waterproofing problems. We here present an alternative greenroof … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 11 Oct 2018 · 7,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombating Climate Change One Bite at a Time: Environmental Sustainability of Veganism (with a Socio-Behavioral Comparison of Vegans and Omnivores)Jennifer M. Ghahari, Jennifer A. McAdamIn an era of escalating climate change, our research examines the environmental benefits of veganism and finds which factors could contribute to a societal shift towards veganism. Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) release significant greenhouse gas emissions as well as expose people and animals to pathogens. Tropical rainforest destruction for grazing land, the vast amount of fresh/potable water needed for … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 9,761 accessesView PDFCite
