Abstract

Landslides are one of the natural disasters that cause severe damage to life. The frequency of landslide has increased with global climate change and population growth, so early warning efforts are needed. Rain is a trigger factor for landslides can be used as an approximate model for disaster prevention and mitigation through the estimation of rainfall threshold. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and threshold of rainfall that triggered landslides in the Grindulu watershed. The method used is the Cumulative Rainfall Threshold (CT), this method compares the amount of rainfall for the last 3 days (72 hours) with rainfall 15 days before. In the Grindulu watershed, landslides occur during 3-day cumulative daily rains ranging from 23-464 mm, whereas in the 15 days before the events range between 67-756.5 mm. Estimates of lower threshold rainfall are determined linear so that the equation P3 = 0.4675 P15-46.9 is obtained with the value R2 = 0.5774The threshold value of rainfall triggers a landslide in the Grindulu watershed when the cumulative rainfall of 3 days is 40 mm and 15 days before the event is 320 mm. The determination of rain threshold is expected to increase community preparedness for landslides.

Abstract

Restaurant Wastewater (RW) is characterized by high volume and strength, with minimal treatment before its release into the environment. Electrocoagulation (EC) could be a better alternative due to its environmental friendliness. The study investigates the use of EC in RW treatment. The samples were collected from the University of Ibadan student Union Building restaurant, between 7-9 am. The EC consisted of an aerator, carbon electrodes, power source, a beaker, and stirrer. Electrodes were connected in mono-polar system at inter-distance of 10 mm, with retention times of 0, 30, 60 and 90 minutes. The RW was aerated before passing direct currents of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 Amperes. The Colour, Particulate Phosphorus (PP), Soluble Reactive Polyphosphate (PO43-), Phosphorus Pentoxide (P2O5), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) were determined. The study was three replicates. Mean percentage removal efficiencies for PP, PO43-, P2O5, COD, DO and colour at 30 minutes (16.85, 19.33, 17.15, 12.58, -32.88 and 20.12%), 60 minutes (30.88, 27.1, 30.57, 21.13, -57.18 and 34.30%), and 90 minutes (40.75, 33.00, 32.83, 25.83, -87.88 and 40.7%) respectively. Better treatment efficiencies of treated wastewater using the electrolytic reactor were obtained with an increase in direct current passing through.

Abstract

In order to maintain or improve the soil fertility of agricultural systems in Ngaoundere, an experiment on the decomposition of simple litters and mixtures of Harungana madagascariens, Vitelaria paradoxa and Syzygium guineense var. macrocarpum was conducted in a field using the litterbag method. This experiment was made of single species and their mixtures of which gave three uneven mixtures (5VP, 5HM and 5SM) and one even mixture (3E) amounting to seven treatments (THM, TVP, TSM, 3E, 5HM, 5VP, and 5SM). The experimental design was a completely randomized block with three replications. 126 samples of 10 g each were introduced in a field for 24 weeks and a deduction of 3 samples was made at 2, 4, 6, 10, 16 and 24 weeks. The remaining dry mass, rates of decomposition, half time and the nutrient release in the soil were determined. The results showed that the remaining dry mass varied from 67.95% in TSM (S. guineense) to 22.02% in TVP (V. paradoxa). The rate of decomposition ranged from 0.033 for 5SM (mixture 50% of S. guineense and 25% for each of the two other species) to 0.055 in 3E with respectively 19, 64 to 12, 56 as a half-time. The initial chemical content and that at the end of the experiment of the simple and mixed litters varied significantly within the treatments. The mixture of litter released more nitrogen and carbon than the individual litter and the pattern was ranged as follow 3E>5VP>5HM>5SM>TVP>THM>TSM. The pattern of phosphorus release in the soil was ranged in the following order: TVP>TSM>THM>5VP>3E>5HM>5SM, indicating that the individual litter released more phosphorus on the soil than their mixture. These preliminary results will not only contribute in the comprehension of the decomposition process mechanism of Ngaoundere but also will permit in choosing the type of the litter and mixture with release more nutrient in the soil for improvement of agricultural system fertility.
