many experimental studies have been conducted on development of the scour hole as a result of vertical jet impaction. research has shown that aeration of the nappe flow in the model is much weaker than that in the prototype. therefore, the influence of aeration on scour holes needs further study. experimental investigation of the effects of air entrainment and tail water depth on the scour hole...

In partially flooded deep water rice (Oryza sativa L. cv Habiganj Aman II), continuous air layers trapped between the hydrophobic, corrugated surface of the leaf blades and the surrounding water constitute the major path of aeration. The conduction of gases through the internal air spaces of the leaf is negligible compared to the conduction of gases through the external air layers. The total vo...

Plant growth is directly affected by soil water, soil aeration, and soil resistance to root penetration. The least limiting water range (LLWR) is de®ned as the range in soil water content within which limitations to plant growth associated with water potential, aeration and soil resistance to root penetration are minimal. The LLWR has not been evaluated in tropical soils. Thus, the objective of...

The presence of high iron (Fe) content in water consumption is a major factor that causes health and aesthetic problems. Its amount samples can be reduced by combining the aeration filtration methods treatment. method basically involves making direct contact between air water, which usually done adding both together. Subsequently, uses porous media like sand, gravel, activated charcoal to filte...
