Complexation, retention and release pattern of arsenic from humic/fulvic acid extracted from zinc and iron enriched vermicompost (2022)
Journal Article

Arsenic (As) is a highly poisonous heavy metal with major environmental ramifications. Inorganic components such as zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe), as well as organic vermicompost, have been used as management solutions, with limited attempts of using them...

Natural Time Series Parameters Forecasting: Validation of the Pattern-Sequence-Based Forecasting (PSF) Algorithm; A New Python Package (2022)
Journal Article
Shende, M. K., Salih, S. Q., Bokde, N. D., Scholz, M., Oudah, A. Y., & Yaseen, Z. M. (2022). Natural Time Series Parameters Forecasting: Validation of the Pattern-Sequence-Based Forecasting (PSF) Algorithm; A New Python Package. Applied Sciences, 12(12), 6194. https://doi.org/10.3390/app12126194

Climate change has contributed substantially to the weather and land characteristic phenomena. Accurate time series forecasting for climate and land parameters is highly essential in the modern era for climatologists. This paper provides a brief intr...

To pet or to enrich? Increasing dogs’ welfare in veterinary clinics/shelters: a pilot study (2022)
Journal Article
Lopes, J., Daud, N., Young, R., & de Azevedo, C. (2022). To pet or to enrich? Increasing dogs’ welfare in veterinary clinics/shelters: a pilot study. Journal of Veterinary Behavior: Clinical Applications and Research, 52, 31-36. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jveb.2022.05.005

Undesirable and problematic behaviors such as an increase in aggressiveness and attempts to escape are frequently provoked when a pet dog is maintained for long periods in stressful environments such as veterinary clinics or shelters. Environmental e... Read More about To pet or to enrich? Increasing dogs’ welfare in veterinary clinics/shelters: a pilot study.

Effect of repurposed drugs on the cellular properties of childhood cancer: in vitro & in silico studies (2022)
Thesis
Begum, S. Effect of repurposed drugs on the cellular properties of childhood cancer: in vitro & in silico studies. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Rhabdoid tumours (RT) are a rare form of childhood cancer which is known to affect infants under the age of 1 year. Survival rate is a major problem with only 31% of those who are diagnosed living to 1 years old. In this research extracranial RT from...

Varietal differences influence arsenic and lead contamination of rice grown in mining impacted agricultural fields of Zamfara State, Nigeria (2022)
Journal Article

In Zamfara state, Nigeria, rice is cultivated in fields contaminated with Pb (lead) from artisanal and illicit mining activities. Rice grown in such contaminated agricultural areas risks not only Pb contamination but also contamination from other tox...

Diurnal activity patterns of equally socialized and kept wolves, Canis lupus, and dogs, Canis lupus familiaris (2022)
Journal Article
Jean-Joseph, H., Dooey, G., & Kotrschal, K. (2022). Diurnal activity patterns of equally socialized and kept wolves, Canis lupus, and dogs, Canis lupus familiaris. Animal Behaviour, 190, 41-52. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anbehav.2022.05.009

Owing to domestication, dog behaviour differs from wolf behaviour, which should also affect time budgets. At the Wolf Science Center, wolves and mongrel dogs are raised and kept in a similar way; thus, it is an ideal place to compare the time budgets...
