Dissolved oxygen (DO) is an important aspect of water quality in aquaculture. To prevent deficiency, aeration used to improve DO and increase yields aquaculture farms. However, the experimental quantification standard transfer rate (SOTR) aerators highly case dependent varies under different aerator operational conditions. Hence, using SOTR for modeling, simulation, design purposes tends be unr...

The present paper focuses on the numerical investigation of flow around fully submerged 2D and 3D hydrofoils operating close to a free surface. Iterative boundary element method is implemented predict field. This study aims investigate aspect ratio effect surface interactions hydrodynamic performance under by using potential theory. Three different submergence depths ratios are studied in wide ...

abstract in this study, the effect of suspended load transport on the characteristics of submerged hydraulic jump (shj) in a rectangular channel was investigated experimentally. sediment concentration and jet froude numbers in the range of 0.424%-16.15% and 1.93-4.96, respectively, were considered. tow grain size 0.15 and 0.03 mm were used in the experiments. characteristics of submerged hydrau...

W constitutes a dangerous equation? There are two obvious interpretations: Some equations are dangerous if you know them, and others arc dangerous if you do not. The first category may pose danger because the secrets within its bounds open doors behind which lies terrible peril. The obvious winner in this is Einstein's iconic equation e = nic~, for it provides a measure of the enormous energy h...

Ethylene is gaseous plant hormone that controls a variety of physiologic activities. OsERS1 and OsETR2 are major ethylene receptors in rice that have been reported to have different regulatory functions. The GFP fused N-terminus of OsERS1 and OsETR2 showed differentially localization patterns when transiently expressed in onion epidermal cells. Base on these results, we suggested that OsERS1 co...

In contrast to animals, plants maintain highly plastic growth and development throughout their life, which enables them to adapt to environmental fluctuations. Phytohormones coordinately regulate these adaptations by integrating environmental inputs into a complex signalling network. In this review, the focus is on the rapid elongation that occurs in response to canopy shading or submergence, a...

As vital components of habitat for stream fishes, pools are often monitored to follow the effects of enhancement projects and natural stream processes. Variations of water depth with discharge, however, can complicate monitoring changes in the depth and volume of pools. To subtract the effect of discharge on depth in pools, residual depths can be measured. Residual depth is the difference in de...

Partial submergence induces rapid internodal elongation in deepwater rice (Oryza sativa L., cv Habiganj Aman II). We measured in vivo extensibility, tissue tension, hydraulic conductance and osmotic potential in the region of cell elongation in the uppermost internode. The in vivo extensibility of the internode, measured by stretching of living tissue with a custom-made constant stress extensio...

Several studies have employed rotating biological contactors (RBCs) for nitrogen removal. However, partially submersed disks are used for nitrification, while completely submersed disks are used for denitrification. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of disk submergence in the performance of rotating biological contactors, in terms of the denitrification process. Two RBCs...
