ABSTRACT The agricultural sector of developing countries is an important force to reckon with in the social and economic development of these nations. However, rural-urban migration has remained a challenge that has had untold effects on the labour force available for agricultural production. This study sought to examine the perceived effects of rural-urban youth migration […]
ABSTRACT The continuing deterioration of agricultural biodiversity has been raising tremendous concerns among conservation experts. This study examined the effect of farming activities on agro-biodiversity management in Cross River State. The study specifically addressed the types of farming activities carried out in the area; the effect of farming activities on agrobiodiversity; and, measures for enhancing […]
ABSTRACT For the past years, the manual sledge hammer has been the commonest seismic energy source particularly for seismic refraction surveys on land among students in our tertiary institution. Its observable limitation has been a general decrease in the efficiency and effectiveness of field data acquisition processes since the human energy is usually employed. An […]
ABSTRACT Hundreds of vehicles such as airplanes, cars, ships, boats, helicopters and so on and other equipments can be faulty, break down or explode due to contaminated fuel. Contaminations such as kerosene with PMS, or DPK with water, or PMS with water and so on poses a major challenge in a growing economy like Nigeria. […]
ABSTRACT Fermented vegetable juices are significant in human health because they provide vast quantities of some nutrients especially vitamins and mineral salts. Fresh juices though rich in nutrients are highly deficient in proteins and so cannot make a balanced nutrition. This research was therefore aimed at determining the effectiveness of fermentation in enhancing the nutritional […]
ABSTRACT Geochemical study was undertaken on coastal sediments retrieved from 3 wells- AP1 (60m), AP2 (48m), and AP3 (65m) deep; of which 42 representative samples were selected for lithological description and paleoenvironment of deposition. Ten samples were used for geochemical analyses with the view towards determining their provenance, extent of weathering, paleoenvironment of deposition, tectonic […]
ABSTRACT Forecasting and knowing the future outcome of an event or venture is the focus of current business men, managers or organizations. An intelligent tool for time series prediction is software that can aid in time series prediction without having to carry out calculations directly by the person that need the predictions. Most time series […]
ABSTRACT Information retrieval techniques have to face both the growing amount of data to be processed and the “natural” distribution of these data over the network. Various technologies and solutions have been developed to handle this situation, including the Mobile Agent technology. A mobile agent is an executing program that can migrate during execution from […]
ABSTRACT A mathematical model of a human population which has been affected by HIV/AIDS disease in Rivers State of Nigeria has been formulated and analysed. We considered how to determine the sensitivity analysis of the model parameters which define this complex system of continuous nonlinear first order ordinary differential equations. On the basis of this […]
ABSTRACT The introduction of Server Based E-Learning Management System is to salvage the present Traditional Learning System in the Department of Physics, University of Calabar. Here, a good E-Learning Management System (E-LMS) is fashioned specifically for the University of Calabar. The E-LMS is fully installed in a server system and tested, such that all users […]
