This paper details results of an experimental study of the capture of solid and liquid aerosols on fibrous filters wetted with water. A microscopic cell containing a single fibre (made from a variety of materials) was observed via a microscope, with a high speed CCD camera used to dynamically image the interactions between liquid droplets, zeolite and PSL particles and fibres. Variable quantiti...

this research was conducted under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the optimum combination of irrigation and fertilizer levels to attain the best yield and quality of tomato crop. the experiment was conducted by using a split-plot design with three replicates. irrigation levels were applied to the main plots and fertilizer levels to the sub-plots. for each experimental unit, the irrigation lev...

The introduction of irrigation to agrarian areas involves several environmental changes that can be aggravated by physical and agronomic factors. The aim of this study is to analyze the spatiotemporal dynamics of the environmental impact on water resources that result from the transition of an agrarian basin into an irrigated area. During five hydrological years, a spatiotemporal comparison was...

irrigation water and nitrogen fertilizer are two important factors in increasing the yield and yield components of cotton. in order to evaluate effects of irrigation methods, various levels of water and nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of cotton were studied at hashemabad cotton research station of gorgan in 2008. the experiment was conducted in split-split plots design with th...

decreasing water loss and increasing the irrigation times are basic methods to develop agriculture, success in natural recourse projects, minimize the stress to planted bushes in natural fields and increase the productivity of soil and water sources. the use of super absorbent is one of these strategies to achieve these goals. the main purpose of this research was to study the effect of super a...

The aim of the paper is to investigate the main determinants of the bilateral virtual water (water used in the production of a commodity or service) flows associated with international trade in agricultural goods across the Mediterranean basin. We consider the bilateral gross flows of virtual water in the area and study what export-specific and import-specific factors are significantly associat...
