A field experiment was conducted in the 1998 dry season at Kadawa, Nigeria to determine the effect of different levels of nitrogen (0, 60, 120 or 180 kg N ha ), phosphorus (0, 20 or 40 kg P ha ) and irrigation 1 1 (0.6, 0.8 or 1.0 IW/CPE ratio) on nutrient concentration and accumulation in maize. The experiment was a split plot design with four replications, the main plot was nitrogen level x i...

nitrate pollutants increase the growth of algal bloom, resulting in fresh water eutrophication. the high nitrogen level in wastewater has become a growing concern, which has risen the necessity to develop efficient nitrogen removal techniques. biological denitrification, which is the reduction of oxidized nitrogen compounds like nitrate or nitrite to gaseous nitrogen compounds, is the most impo...

The nitrogen concentration of ultrathin gate oxides (sub-1.3 nm) was varied in a wide range (from 13 % to 23 %). The threshold voltage and the channel carrier mobility of advanced 65 nm technology CMOSFET transistors fabricated with these oxides were analyzed. It was observed that increasing the nitrogen concentration in the gate oxide results in a negative shift of the threshold voltage for bo...

Nitrogen determinations, performed upon the mycelia of Trichophyton rubrum, indicated that both the total nitrogen to mycelial weight ratio and the protein nitrogen to mycelial weight ratio decreased as the age of the mycelia increased. An increase in nitrogen concentration in the medium produced an increase in the total nitrogen to mycelia weight ratio, but did not necessarily increase the pro...

Abnormalities of intrapulmonary distribution and mixing of inspired gases occur in diseases of the lungs, particularly in pulmonary emphysema. Interest in this problem began in 1864, and has been pursued with many different methods (1). However, uncertainty and even confusion still exists not only in the definition but also in the quantitative measurement of intrapulmonary distribution and mixi...

The balance between nitrogen loading and runoff in the forested headwater streams of the Kanna River was estimated to elucidate the current status of nitrogen saturation in a forested watershed. NO3-N concentration in the study area was far higher than the average value in Japan. Estimated nitrogen runoff accounted for 55–57% of nitrogen loading; suggesting that the forest’s nitrogen retention ...

Nutritional management is an important factor in the success of crop production. In order to evaluate different level of nitrogen, potassium and zinc fertilizers on agro physiological characteristics of green bean a field experiment was conducted as split-plot based randomized complete block design in three replications, in Varamin university field research during 2011. The main plot included u...
