Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAssessment of Melaleuca cajuputi as Heavy Metals Phytoremediator for Sewage Sludge Contaminated SoilShibli Nik Mohd, Nik Muhamad Majid, Noor Azhar Mohamed Shazili, Arifin AbduIn 2011, total marine capture landings in Peninsular Malaysia decreased by 3.9% which amounted to 1,373,105 tonnes as compared to 1,428,881 tonnes in 2010. The decline is connected to marine pollution which mainly comes from land based sources. Coastal forests play an important role affecting the marine ecosystem health and need to be conserved as a buffer to minimize pollution … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 7,470 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordForest Structure Assessment of a Rehabilitated ForestRoland Kueh Jui Heng, Nik Muhamad Abd. Majid, Seca Gandaseca et al.Problem Statement: Forest structure assessment provides information on forest succession, dynamics, biodiversity and health which are important but only few information is available on rehabilitated forest. The objective of this study was to assess the forest structure of selected age stands at a rehabilitated forest situated in Universiti Putra Malaysia Bintulu Sarawak Campus, Sarawak, Malaysia. Approach: Four 20×20) m plots … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 9,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUsing Orthosiphon stamineus B. for Phytoremediation of Heavy Metals in Soils Amended with Sewage SludgeArifin Abdu, Najihah Aderis, Hazandy Abdul-Hamid et al.Problem statement: Phytoremediation is a biological treatment where plants are used to remove pollutants from the environment to make them harmless. A study was conducted in a greenhouse at the Faculty of Forestry, Universiti Putra Malaysia on the potential of Orthosiphon stamineus B. planted in sewage sludge for heavy metals uptake. The objective of this study was to evaluate the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 8,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Logging Operation on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: Since heavy machinery are used in the logging operation activity for extracting the logs on sensitive forest site with peat soil, environment destruction should be the other concern during its processes especially on its important function as soil carbon storage. The objective of this study was to determine whether logging operation affect soil carbon storage of a tropical … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Skidding Operations on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: There is still lack of a study that compares the soil carbon storage of kuda-kuda skidding system and excavator skidding system in tropical peat swamp forests. The objective of this study was to determine whether skidding operations affects soil carbon storage of a tropical peat swamp forest. Approach: Soil sampling was conducted on two different plots (0.3 ha … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,712 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of N and K Fertilizers on Nutrient Leaching and Groundwater Quality under Mature Oil Palm in Sabah during the Monsoon PeriodPetronella G. Ah Tung, Mohd Kamil Yusoff, Nik Muhamad Majid et al.Problem statement: The oil palms are mainly grown in the humid tropics with high rainfall. Soluble Nitrogen (N) and Potassium (K) fertilizers are commonly required by the oil palm plantations to maximize palm productivity due to the highly weathered soils with low fertility. Thus, leaching losses of N and K nutrients may be unavoidable and these nutrients may move further … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 10,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Precipitation Fluctuation on Soil Carbon Storage of a Tropical Peat Swamp ForestAnton Eko Satrio, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: It is important to compare the effect of extremely different rainfall conditions on soil carbon storage of lowland tropical peat swamp forest. Therefore, under these natural rainfall gradient, the objectives of this study were to determine whether rainfall affects soil carbon storage of a tropical peat swamp forest and to determine what correlations between variables occurs which stimulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Different Ages of a Rehabilitated Forest on Selected Physico-chemical PropertiesRajeswari A.P. Murugayah, Seca Gandaseca, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidProblem statement: This research was important because of still lack of information about rehabilitated tropical forest age effect on infiltration rate. The objectives of this study were to determine the influence of age of forest on soil water infiltration rate and to evaluate the influence of forest age on the relationship between water infiltration rate, soil organic matter and soil … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Chili (Capsicum annuum)Shairul Rizdiyandi Omar, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidInduced mutation by gamma irradiation has been found to be a very useful technique for crop improvement. Apart from this, the proper use of induced mutation in plant breeding has become a profitable approach. This investigation was carried out to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma rays on germination, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 9,039 accessesView PDFCite
