TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional separate phases formulation is used to develop a numerical analysis of the transient response of a cylindrical packed bed thermal energy storage system, which is randomly packed with spheres having uniform sizes and encapsulated the paraffin wax as a phase change material.

TL;DR: In this paper, a crop simulation model (DSSAT) was used to assess the impact of different climate change scenarios on rainfed wheat and barley in the Yarmouk basin in Jordan.
Abstract: Rainfed agriculture in Jordan is one of the most vulnerable sectors to climate change, as the available water and land resources are limited and most of the country’s land is arid. In this study, a crop simulation model (DSSAT) was used to assess the impact of different climate change scenarios on rainfed wheat and barley in the Yarmouk basin in Jordan. Analysis of observed crop data showed differences between cultivated and harvested areas for both crops in the study area with variations among years. Results from DSSAT model for years showed that it was able to capture the trend of yield over the years realistically well. The model predicted an average yield of wheat of 1176 kg ha � 1

TL;DR: In this article, the results showed that 95% of the original Pb2+ concentrated was adsorbed by Mn-diatomite within 10 min, while kinetic data for diatomite showed a lower rate for Pb 2+ uptake.
Abstract: Diatomite and manganese-oxide-modified–diatomite (Mn–diatomite) were tested as adsorbents for Pb2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+removal from water. Impregnating the surface of diatomite with 0.38 g of manganese oxide per gram diatomite shows an increase of 2.4-fold in the surface area of the modified diatomite. The adsorption capacities were 99, 51, and 26 mg/g Mn–diatomite for Pb2+, Cu2+,and Cd2+, respectively, obtained at solution pH 4, while values of 24, 21, and 16 mg/g diatomite were obtained at the same conditions and for the same metals. The obtained adsorption kinetics experimental data display that 95% of the original Pb2+ concentrated was adsorbed by Mn–diatomite within 10 min, while kinetic data for diatomite showed a lower rate for Pb2+ uptake. The filtration quality of diatomite was significantly enhanced with the surface modification by manganese oxide.

TL;DR: The results show that theEconomic gain of the Blue Nile Basin from WEF increases with raising the cooperation level between Ethiopia and Sudan to collaboration, however, the economic gain of each riparian country does not necessarily follow the same pattern as the economic loss of the basin.

TL;DR: A novel energy-aware and density-based clustering and routing protocol for gathering data in wireless sensor networks which basically aims at distributing the load among available sensor nodes which in turn balances the energy consumption in the network and consequently elongates the network lifetime.
