a field experiment was conducted in research farm of isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2011 . various weeding periods were investigated on growth and yield of potato under drip tape and furrow irrigation systems. a split plot arrangement was used in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatments were included in main plots and periods of weed ...

This study assessed the chemical and microbial contents in the water of public swimming pools in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. A total of 16 public pools were selected through probability sampling from the 32 pools that existed in the five urban areas of Akwa Ibom State. Water samples were collected from the sampled pools and tested in the laboratory for chemical and microbial contents. Results sho...

In this study we 1) describe the abundance of Anopheles and culicine immatures in different water body types in urban Malindi, Kenya, 2) compare Anopheles immature density in relation to culicine immature density, and 3) identify characteristics that influence the likelihood of water bodies being co-colonized by Anopheles and culicines. Entomological and environmental cross-sectional surveys co...

background: many studies have been showed that certain illnesses including fungi and bacterial infections can be transmitted to human by contaminated swimming pools water. the main objective of the present study was to detect microbial (bacterial and fungi) and chemical (ph and chlorine levels) pollutions of the all swimming pools water in hamadan city, iran . methods: this study was a cross-se...

Spate irrigation is increasingly recognized as contributing to potential of accessible water-resource use, local food production, and resource sustainability. This study constructs an approach to spate irrigation as a landscape technology by selectively fusing concepts of resilience ecology, political ecology, and actor-network theory. It is applied to a case study of the Calicanto area (Cochab...

Coastal bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon L.) may be a potentially important source of bio-based energy in the southern US due to its vast acreage. It is often produced as part of a waste management plan with varying nutrient composition and energy characteristics on fields irrigated with livestock wastewater. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of subsurface drip irrigation wi...
