A critical evaluation of Libya's urban spatial system between 1970 and 2006 [PDF]

, 2010
In Libya, rural-urban migration and rapid population growth were intensified by the discovery of oil and brought the polarization by the big cities. This polarization has become a major issue of problems within the urban spatial planning, particularly in

Evaluation and Optimization of COD Removal Performance for a Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant by Response Surface Methodology: The Case of Van Muradiye

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the performance of the Van Muradiye Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant was evaluated with Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The effects of pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen (DO), and suspended solids (SS) on the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency were evaluated using samples collected from the plant's inlet and ...

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Heat Stress in Quail: Impacts on Health and Productivity, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts physiological homeostasis in quail, inducing oxidative stress, immune dysregulation, and metabolic imbalance, which impair growth, reproduction, product quality, and welfare. Integrating nutritional, environmental, and genetic–epigenetic strategies enhances thermotolerance, sustains productivity, and supports climate‐smart quail ...

Leveraging Big Multitemporal Multisource Satellite Data and Artificial Intelligence for the Detection of Complex and Invisible Features: The Case of Extensive Irrigation Mapping

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detection of buried or obscured archaeological features remains a central challenge in landscape archaeology, particularly in the irrigated floodplains of Mesopotamia where levees and canals formed the basis of complex agrarian systems. This study presents a deep learning–based approach for the large‐scale, automated detection of ancient ...

Expert Perspective: Toward Treat‐to‐Target Management in Adult Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Treat‐to‐target (T2T) has transformed the management of several rheumatic diseases through predefined therapeutic goals, structured disease assessment, and timely treatment adjustment. Despite major advances in the understanding and treatment of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), a formal T2T framework for adult IIM has not yet been established.
