the concentration contents of ca, mg, sr and zn in porites corals from pulau langkawi, pulau redang and pulau tioman were presented. the corals were cleaned and the growth rate examined visually. the growth rate of porites in malaysia waters was between 5 to 25 mm yr-1 and each band was selected for determining the metal contents using the atomic absorption spectrophotometer (aas). the mean val...

[1] Reliable temperature estimates from both surface and subsurface ocean waters are needed to reconstruct past upper water column temperature gradients and past oceanic heat content. This work examines the relationships between trace element ratios in fossil shells and seawater temperature for surface-dwelling foraminifera species, Globigerinoides ruber (white) and Globigerina bulloides, and d...

Conventional procedures are inadequate for optimizing the concentrations ofnutrients to increase the sugar yield. In this study, an artificial neural network(ANN) was used to optimize the Ca, Mg, N, K and Na content of the storage rootto increase sugar yield (Y) by increasing both sugar content (SC) and root yield(T). Data from three field experiments were used to produce a wide range ofvariati...

The mineral contents of Centaura leave and seeds were determined by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES). Macro element concentrations (P, K, Ca, Mg and S) of samples were found at high levels. K was established at high level in both leave and seed samples of Centaurea. While K contents of leaves changes between 7254.10 mg/kg (Centaurea lycaonica) and 26396.36 m...

background: electrolytes play an important role in the normal functioning of human body. electrolyte imbalance and mineral disturbances is the common clinical manifestation in several infectious diseases including malaria. malaria is a mosquito borne serious infectious disease of the world. plasmodium vivax and p. falciparum are the main agents responsible for malaria in pakistan. electrolyte i...

the aim of this research was to determine the effects of camphorosma monspeliaca species on soil nutrient elements in its habitat. for rangeland, ecological positive or negative effects of plant species on environment must carefully be examined before allowing their plantation in vast areas; on the other hand this species with their special characteristics have special effects on their surround...

the mineral contents of centaura leave and seeds were determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (icp-aes). macro element concentrations (p, k, ca, mg and s) of samples were found at high levels. k was established at high level in both leave and seed samples of centaurea. while k contents of leaves changes between 7254.10 mg/kg (centaurea lycaonica) and 26396.36 mg/kg...
