Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRain Events Detection using Energy Variation of Commercial Microwave Links AttenuationWend Yam Serge Boris Ouedraogo, Moumouni Djibo, Ali Doumounia et al.In this study, we propose a new method for detecting wet periods by using telecommunications Commercial Microwave Links (CML). The purpose of the study is to automatically find rain time slots. The attenuation of the microwave signal, propagating between a transmitting antenna and a receiving one, due to the variations of the climatic conditions over the link, is a non-stationary … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 20 Aug 2022 · 6,287 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Effects and Phytotoxicity of Photo Fenton Solutions and Acid Rains on Cucumber (Cucumis Sativus) Plants: Treats and ConsoleFawzy Eissa, Sayuri Bandai, Nour El-Hoda Zidan et al.The Eco-physiological assessments of variable parameters known to be essential for proper plant growth and health were determined in cucumber plants exposed to short term treatments in 42 days using two broad classification types; Photo Fenton solution generating OH radicals and simulated acids. Solutions containing different classification of scavengers of OH radicals and mannitol were employed as Controls. Results indicated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 21 May 2020 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECT OF POLYETHYLENE BLACK PLASTIC MULCH ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF TWO SUMMER VEGETABLE CROPS UNDER RAIN-FED CONDITIONS UNDER SEMI-ARID REGION CONDITIONSAtif Y. MahadeenWater use efficiency in agriculture can be enhanced by several strategies mainly by reducing evaporation from the soil surface. The mulching techniques were being used widely in irrigated crop production worldwide. The mulching techniques can be also implemented in summer vegetables production under rain-fed conditions. The current study aimed at evaluating the effect of polyethylene black plastic mulch on growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 9,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF EXTREME RAINFALLS DISTRIBUTION IN MALANG RESIDENCEAmran, Iriawan Nur, Subiono, IrhamahExtreme rainfalls often occur everywhere just in a moment, very difficult to be anticipated and produce very detrimental impact to the environment and human society. Floods and landslides are influenced by high variability of extreme rainfalls, especially in the watershed area for floods and the hills as well as mountains for landslides, such as in Malang Residence, East Java, Indonesia … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2013 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleResemblance of Rain Fall in Bangladesh with Correlation Dimension and Neural Network LearningAbu Nasir Mohammad Enamul Kabir, Hussain Muhammad Imran Hasan, Mohd Abdur Rashid et al.Rain fall and Temperature are undoubtedly two important factors that balance water in the environment. Adequate study of the rain behavior helps to forecast it. The time series obtained from different stations of the country throughout the several years are collected and analyzed. The dynamics of rain fall time series is analyzed with Correlation Dimension (CD) to characterize the several … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 7,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRainfall Attenuation and Rainfall Rate Measurements in Malaysia Comparison with Prediction ModelsMandeep Singh Jit Singh, Syed Idris Syed Hassan, Mohd Fadzil AinAttenuation due to rain is a primary cause of communication impairment on satellite-earth paths, especially above 10GHz. Rainfall is a serious source of attenuation at such a frequency. This paper presents the characteristics of rain distribution in USM based on measured one minute rain rate. For attenuation of rain, predictions models like ITU and VIHT (Variable Isotherm Height Technique) model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Sudden Change In Rainfall Characteristics In Amman, Jordan During The Mid 1950sMahmoud M. Smadi, Ahmed ZghoulThis study examines recent changes, trends and fluctuations in the total rainfall and number of rainy days at Amman Airport Meteorological (AAM) station in Jordan during the period 1922-2003. The occurrence of abrupt changes and trends were examined and identified using the Pettitt test, a combination of cumulative sum charts (CUSUM) and bootstrapping and the sequential version of Mann-Kendall rank … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 10,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEarth-To-Space Improved Model for Rain Attenuation Prediction at Ku-BandMandeep Singh Jit Singh, S. S.I. Hassan, M. F. Ain et al.A model for predicting rain attenuation on earth-to-space was developed by using the measurement data obtained from tropical and equatorial region. The proposed rain attenuation model uses the complete rainfall rate cumulative distribution as input data. It was shown that significant improvements in terms of prediction error over existing attenuation model obtained. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Comparison of Spatio-Temporal Bayesian Models for Reconstruction of Rainfall Fields in a Cloud Seeding ExperimentSujit k. sahu, Giovanna Jona Lasinio, Arianna orasi, Kanti V. MardiaIn response to the drought experienced in Southern Italy a rain seeding project has been setup and developed during the years 1989-1994. The initiative was taken with the purpose of applying existing methods of rain enhancement technology to regions of south Italy including Puglia. The aim of this study is to provide statistical support for the evaluation of the experimental … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Study on Suction-rainfall Response of a Cut Slope in Unsaturated Residual Soil Using a Field Rain SimulatorBujang B.K. Huat, Faisal Hj. Ali, S. MariappanThis research describes the design and construction of an artificial rain simulator system and the results obtained with regards to suction-rainfall response of a cut slope in unsaturated residual soil of weathered sandstone of various weathering grades.
