this study evaluates the influence of yanã½klar creek on the water quality of fethiye gulf. accordingly, this study demonstrates (i) change in the water quality of fethiye gulf from 2006 to 2007; (ii) the water quality classification of the yanã½klar creek feeding fethiye gulf; and (iii) how land-based fish farm influences yanã½klar creek water quality in a fethiye-gã¶cek specially protected ar...

In agricultural lands, high nutrient levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are very important due to the high need of plants. By improving the nutrient content of sodium soils, the fertility and growth of the plants improve. Accordingly, in order to investigate the effect of underground drainage on soil quality in Khuzestan region, this experiment was carried out in a completely randomiz...

In this research, an experimental study to evaluate nutrient removal from synthetic wastewater by a lab-scale moving bed biofilm process was investigated. Also, kinetic analysis of the process with regard to phosphorus and nitrogen removal was studied with different mathematical models. For nutrient removal, the moving bed biofilm process was applied in series with anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic...

in this study the effect of nitrogen form and different oxygen levels on growth and development and macronutrients concentrations in lettuce plants was investigated. this investigation showed that sole ammonium application caused fresh and dry weight reduction of shoot and root in lettuce plant. but different oxygen levels had no effect on them. nitrogen concentration of shoot was higher in amm...

Two reservoirs in Taiwan were modeled to simulate the hydrodynamics and water quality in the water column. The modelling effort was supported with data collected in the field for a 2-year period for both reservoirs. Spatial and temporal distributions of temperature in the water column of the two reservoirs were well reproduced by the hydrodynamic model. Model calculated concentrations of key wa...

Microbes tailor their growth rate to nutrient availability. Here, we measured, using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, >100 intracellular metabolites in steady-state cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae growing at five different rates and in each of five different limiting nutrients. In contrast to gene transcripts, where approximately 25% correlated with growth rate irrespective of the ...

introduction: vermicompost is one of the important bio-fertilizer which is the product of the process of composting different organic wastes such as manures and crop residues using different earthworms. vermicomposts, especially those are derived from animal wastes,contain the large amounts of nutrients compaired with the composts prepared from crop residues. vermicomposts contain plant availab...
