Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTemporal Variations in Abundance and Species Richness of Zooplankton with Emphasis on Ichthyoplankton in the Subtidal Waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Northwestern Arabian Gulf of the ROPME Sea AreaMohammad Ali, Matrah Al-Mutairi, M.N.V. Subrahmanyam et al.Zooplankton, including the ichthyoplankton, abundance and species richness over time in the subtidal waters of Umm Al-Namil Island, Kuwait Bay, were sampled and quantified from September 2016 to August 2017. At the same period, physicochemical measurements (i.e., water temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrient concentrations) occurred. A total of 9 larval fish families were identified: Acropomatidae, Bregmacerotidae, Bythitidae, Clupeidae, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 6 · 21 Jan 2020 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleASSESSING THE EFFECTS OF LOGGING ACTIVITIES ON AVIAN RICHNESS AND DIVERSITY IN DIFFERENT AGED POST-HARVESTED HILL DIPTEROCARP TROPICAL RAINFOREST OF MALAYSIAM. N. Rajpar, M. ZakariaLogging activities have encroached into the hill dipterocarp tropical rainforest area since the lowland dipterocarp forests have decreased in size. Hill dipterocarp tropical rainforest is rich in habitat diversity and provide a variety of resources for avian species such as food, habitat and shelter. Therefore it is important to examine the logging effects of hill dipterocarp rainforest on avian species. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 15 Jul 2014 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChanges in the Composition and Diversity of Pasture Grass Due to the Influence of Grazing in the Steppe Zone of Northern KazakhstanAliya Baitelenova, Balzhan Akhylbekova, Meisam Zargar et al.Overgrazing poses a serious threat to the sustainability of steppe pasturelands in Northern Kazakhstan, where intensifying livestock pressure drives significant changes in vegetation composition, species diversity, and soil fertility. This study investigated the effects of grazing intensity on pasture vegetation and chestnut soil properties in the Zhaksyn district of the Akmola region. Field surveys were conducted in July-August 2024 using … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2026 · 1,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsArthropods in Natural Communities in Mescal Agave (Agave durangensis Gentry) in an Arid ZoneMaría P. González-Castillo, Manuel Quintos Escalante, Gabriela Castaño-MenesesProblem statement: The arthropods have a very important role in the arid zones due to their interactions with many organism and because they constituted an important element in the structure of the plant community. Nevertheless their importance there are few knowledge about the community of arthropods associated to vegetation in arid zones in the North of Mexico. The present study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 8,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnt Diversity in a Sugarcane Culture without the Use of Straw Burning in Southeast, Sao Paulo, BrazilDébora Rodrigues De Souza, Erich Stingel, Luiz Carlos de Almeida et al.Problem statement: One of the current requirements of agroecosystem management is the maintenance of biodiversity. Manual sugarcane harvesting with the previous burning of straw has been gradually replaced by mechanical harvesting in Brazil. However, the diversity of Formicidae, which can be a natural pest controller, has not been studied in this new system yet. Approach: This study was carried out … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,646 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRestoration of Biodiversity and EcosystemIgnacio Santa-Regina, M. C. Santa-ReginaSuccession is one of the most studied processes in ecology and succession theory provides strong predictability. However, few attempts have been made to influence the course of succession thereby testing the hypothesis that the passage of one stage is essential to enter a next one. At each stage of succession ecosystem processes may be affected by the diversity of species … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2013 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of an Intelligent Electronic Prescription Ontology Using Open Source Tools: A Botswana Case StudyTshiamo Sigwele, Eunice Okon, Tshepiso Mokgetse, Onkemetse TshenyegoHealthcare interoperability in Botswana is hindered by fragmented information exchange across public and private providers, resulting in prescription conflicts, duplicated treatment, and delayed care. In prior work, we developed the Intelligent Electronic Prescription Ontology (IEPO), an open-source OWL 2 ontology for semantically standardized prescription data exchange. Although IEPO was previously validated using competency question-driven metrics (recall, precision, and F1-score), those … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 29 Sep 2026 · 500 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecies Diversity of Lichens in the Burabay State National Park, KazakhstanAizhan Baubekova, Zhanilxan Bukabayeva, Assemgul Sarsenova et al.Lichens constitute essential components of terrestrial ecosystems, and comprehensive documentation of lichen diversity is fundamental for conservation and ecosystem management. This study investigated the species composition and ecological distribution of lichens in Burabay State National Nature Park, northern Kazakhstan. Established in 2000, the park encompasses over 100,000 hectares representing a unique forest-steppe ecotone surrounded by extensive steppe landscapes, supporting approximately … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Altitude on Species Diversity and Vegetation Structure of Kigelia africana Parklands in CameroonAwé Djongmo Victor, Vroh Bi Tra Aimé, Noiha Noumi Valery et al.In the Faro Subdivision (North, Cameroon), there are populations of Kigelia africana, known by the common name “Dambale", whose variety is largely unknown. The study's goal is to demonstrate how altitude affects species diversity and vegetation structure in Kigelia africana parklands. To gather information for statistical analysis, a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was employed. A total of 90 quadrats … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2025 · 3,176 accessesView PDFCite
