The activity concentration of gross alpha and gross beta particles in four samples of borehole drinking water consumed in Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida University (IBBU), Lapai, Niger State-Nigeria was measured, using a portable single channel gas free proportional counter (MPC2000B-DP) detector. This study focused on cancer related problems and the bio-data of the environment was discussed as wel...

Background: The radioactivity levels in sediment and rock samples of İkizdere and Kaptanpaşa Valley have been determined. To our knowledge, there seems to be no information about radioactivity level in the İkizdere and Kaptanpaşa Valley sediments and rocks so far. Materials and Methods: The average radium equivalent activity (Raeq), the total absorbed dose rate (D), the external risk index (Hex...

Rankings for output of Chinese main agricultural commodity in the world for 1978, 1980, 1990, 2000, 2006, 2007 and 2008 have been released in United Nations FAO Database. Unfortunately, where the ranking of output of Chinese cotton lint in the world for 2008 was missed. This paper uses sequential data mining methods with decision rules filling this gap. This new data mining method will be help ...

this study was carried out to 1. determine spatial variations of heavy metal deposition in agricultural soils of two rural communities (ouledbouaicha and tazakourte) of about 5790 ha in a mining area near marrakech city in morocco; 2. to assess the extent of metallic pollution generated by the mining activity and; 3. to identify the key mechanism responsible for this contamination and its relat...

The purpose of the article is to identify impact dynamics mining on activities small and medium-sized businesses in a resource-type region (on example case Kemerovo — Kuzbass). Based study statistical indicators, correlation regression analysis, it shown that coal has negative relationship with number enterprises. share gross regional product does not correlate entrepreneurial activity. With de...

In assessing the nutritional status of populations, it is becoming increasingly common to measure not only the total food intake but also the energy expenditure of groups of individuals. I t is often difficult to compare the results obtained by different authors in such studies of energy expenditure because of the diverse ways in which these results may be expressed. The metabolic cost of a per...
