Potential of Orange Peel Ash as a Cement Replacement Material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The potential of Orange peel ash (OPA) as a cement replacement material was investigated with focus on the effect of OPA content on the physicomechnical properties such as consistency, setting times, soundness, compressive and flexural strengths of OPA ...

Phylosymbiosis and Parallel Geographical Patterns in the Gut Microbiota of Desert‐Dwelling Amphibians and Reptiles

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Host species emerge as a significant contributor to interspecies variations in the gut microbiota of desert‐dwelling amphibians and reptiles, illustrating phylosymbiosis among the studied species. Geographical factors partially account for interpopulation variations in the gut microbiota of Bufotes pewzowi and Teratoscincus przewalskii, with parallel ...

Estimating spatiotemporal reproductive dynamics of fish populations with passive acoustic monitoring: A state‐space model approach

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) has been used to estimate the presence and spatial distribution of target organisms using biological sounds received by microphones. Due to its cost‐effectiveness and non‐invasiveness, PAM is becoming a promising approach for studying the spatiotemporal dynamics of large groups in response to environmental ...

Reducing data processing effort in camera trap density estimation: Extending the REST model by explicitly modelling animal detection processes

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate and reliable estimation of wildlife population density is fundamental to effective conservation and management. While camera traps show potential for monitoring ground‐dwelling mammal densities, labour‐intensive data processing remains a significant constraint. Ideally, conservation efforts would benefit from the continuous monitoring

Effect of Moisture Content Variation on Thermo-Physical Properties of Brown Variety Tigernut (Cyperus esculentus)

open access: yesArid Zone Journal of Engineering, Technology and Environment, 2019
Knowledge of thermophysical properties is essential to the food processing industries. The properties are useful in modeling of thermal behavior of seeds during processing operations such as frying, baking, boiling fermentation and drying.

Separation Process of Nonpolar Gas Hydrate in Food Solution under High Pressure Apparatus

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2014
Separation process of nonpolar gas hydrate formation in liquid food was experimentally studied under high pressure container. Xenon (Xe) gas was selected as hydrate forming gas and coffee solution was used as a sample of liquid food.

Pelletization of invasive Reynoutria Japonica with spruce sawdust for energy recovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The article focuses on processing of Reynoutria japonica an invasive alien species that is generally extirpated with major costs for its negative impact on biodiversity. It is the biodegradable waste that could be effectively used in energy industry.
