It has been suggested that pipe wettability may affect oil-water flow patterns; particularly, water-in-oil dispersed flow transition boundaries.
Particularly, water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsions are formed by well-defined nanodroplets of the aqueous phase, dispersed by the assembly of surfactant molecules in a continuous oil phase.
Recognizing the fundamental role of Earth's Critical Zone and its life-sustaining resources (particularly water) resulted in the creation of cities in the ancient world.
These results provide experimental proof that the incidence of human S. japonicum infection can be reduced through the reduction in infection rates in water buffaloes, thereby emphasising the important role of bovines (particularly water buffaloes) in human schistosomiasis transmission.
Interior Minister Mounkaila Modi said the decision was made because many of the refugees were livestock herders whose camels were destroying the arid country's fragile ecosystem, particularly water sources in short supply.
Nevertheless, nodulating soybean plants growth and production are highly sensitive to adverse environmental conditions, particularly water scarcity in soils [ 7, 8].
In summary, our group's main interest was the link between epigenetics and stress in plants, - particularly water-deficit stress in species with large genomes.
Considering the large ruminant livestock population in New Zealand, ground water and particularly surface water in rural areas are potentially contaminated with ruminant faeces containing STEC.
Level of arsenic contamination in the environment and particularly in drinking water in this study site (<10 μg/L) was lower than in other arsenic-contaminated sites.
This has resulted in widespread concern about the presence of EDCs in the environment, particularly in water, wastewater, and agricultural irrigation.
