given the potential for carbon storage in plant tissues, this approach has a serious interest in recent decades. therefore, the ability of carbon storage in astragalus gossypinus and astragalus parrowianus were examined in part of alpine pastures in kermanshah province. after determining the representative districts, according to 4 main aspect and 5 category elevation was determined representat...

carbon is the most important greenhouse element which sequestrates by photosynthesis procedure and is the easiest and cheapest way of decreasing atmospheric gas level. the vegetation cover that has woody texture is more capable for carbon sequestration. the most plant species of arid rangelands are the shrub growth forms. the purpose of this research was to assess carbon sequestration potential...

We compared relative use of streamwater dissolved organic carbon (DOC) by bacteria and the trophic significance of bacteria to invertebrates in two headwater streams at Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory in North Carolina: a stream with all leaf litter inputs excluded for 1 yr, and a reference stream. Leaf litter standing crop in the treatment stream was ,1% that of the reference stream, and fine be...

Two pig abattoirs (A and B) equipped with an automated head-only and head-to-chest electrical stunning system, and two (C and D) equipped with a manual carbon dioxide stunning system, were evaluated to compare the effectiveness of stunning in a total of 10,454 pigs slaughtered under commercial conditions. In the abattoirs with the electrical stunning system, the percentage of animals that respo...

the rangelands, as one of the largest dynamic biomes in the world,have very capabilities. regulation of greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere,particularly carbon dioxide as the main greenhouse gases, is one of these cases.the attention to rangeland, as cheep and reachable resources to sequestrate thecarbon dioxide, increases after the industrial revolution. rangelands comprise thelarge par...

Monodispersive carbon spheres with a high percentage of purity have been synthesized using a mixed-valent oxide-catalytic carbonization (MVOCC) process. In this paper, the chemical activities of the carbon spheres are examined by dispersing Pt, CdS and WO, nanoparticles, respectively, on the carbon surfaces from the microstructure information provided by transmission electron microscopy. The sp...

The percentage of organic carbon contents of 62 bottom sediments in Pahang riverestuary were analyzed using the wet dichromate oxidation method. The sediments particle sizes at the same stations were also measured using the dry sieving and laser diffraction methods. In this study, the concentrations of organic carbon are relatively higher during pre-monsoon season and become much lower during t...
