Seed Germination And In Vitro Micropropagation Of Tulipa Gesneriana, Teeba Hassan Abdul-Karim, Sumaya F. Hamad

Baghdad Science Journal

An effective method for the in vitro propagation of Tulipa gesneriana was developed using Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium. Seeds were first cultured on hormone-free MS medium, achieving %90 germination after 30 days. Seedlings were obtained, and flowering stem explants excised from these seedlings were used for callus induction. The best callus formation was obtained on MS medium supplemented with thidiazuron (TDZ1.5mg/L) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D1.5mg/L). Shoot proliferation was most effective on MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L benzyladenine (BA) and 0.2 mg/L indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), and bulb formation was promoted by 0.5 mg/L BA, producing 3–4 bulbs per explant, while …

Adsorption And Kinetic Study Of Toxic Dye (Methylene Blue) Removal From Simulated Industrial Wastewater Using Sustainable Material, Zahraa H. Obaid, Jasim M. Salman, Alaa R. Omran, Noor S. Naji

Baghdad Science Journal

Water pollution is a global issue that affects both human health and the environment. The increasing use of the methylene blue (Mb) dye in various industrial applications poses significant risks. The study aimed to use hydrochloric acid-modified Ziziphus Spina Christi powdered leaves (ZSC) as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for removing Mb dye from effluents. Batch experiments were conducted with contact times of 10–180 minutes, initial dye concentrations of 10–60 mg/L, temperatures of 25–60°C, pH values of 5–9, and sorbent dosages of 0.25-2 g per 40 ml of dye solution. The results showed that the highest removal efficiency of Mb …

Ecological Health Risk Assessment Of Some Heavy Metals In Dust From Some Nursery And Primary Schools Of Al-Kut City, Iraq, Wisam Thamer Al-Mayah, Zahraa Zahraw Al-Janabi, Isam Hani Hameed

Baghdad Science Journal

Heavy metals in dust are considered one of the most important environmental consequences of human activities. The objectives of this study are to investigate the ecological risk of heavy metals on human health in the dust of schools in Kut City, Iraq. The dust samples were collected from 25 primary schools and kindergartens. The pH, EC, TDS, and concentrations of heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Cr, Cd, Zn, Co, Mn) were measured. The heavy metals were analyzed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The contamination factor (CF), enrichment factor (EF), and pollution load index (PLI) were calculated. The results showed that the …

Land Cover Changes And Distribution Of Carbon Stocks In The Tembawang Agroforestry Area, Bengkayang Regency, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, Rafdinal Rafdinal, Riza Linda, Adityo Raynaldo, Eko Subrata

Baghdad Science Journal

Tembawang agroforestry represents a traditional forest management system practiced by Dayak communities in Kalimantan and is recognized for its ecological and livelihood functions. This study examines land cover changes and carbon stock distribution in Tembawang agroforestry in Cipta Karya Village, West Kalimantan. The research applied a combination of field surveys and remote sensing using Sentinel satellite imagery from 2019 and 2023. Vegetation data were collected through observation plots to assess species composition, density, and biomass for carbon estimation using allometric equations. A total of 17 tree species were identified across Tembawang and rubber forest areas. Four species showed the highest …

Qoe Enhancement For Video Streaming Based On Attention U-Net Model, Iman Kadhum Abbood, Doaa Ayed Mohammed, Israa Hadi Ali, Sarah Abdul-Ridha Abed

Baghdad Science Journal

Video streaming services, including YouTube, Netflix, and Amazon, account for a large portion of global internet traffic. Therefore, the maintenance of high visual quality is very important to user satisfaction and overall Quality of Experience (QoE) for these users. However, fluctuating bandwidth often causes frame drops and motion discontinuities, resulting in visual artifacts and degraded QoE. Although existing video frame interpolation methods attempt to address these challenges, most remain limited in their ability to sustain performance under bandwidth-constrained environments. To overcome these limitations, IncepU-Net has been introduced. IncepU-Net is proposed as an enhanced U-Net architecture that integrates multi-scale inception modules …

Assessment Of Buildings' Energy-Saving Strategies Resilience To Climate Change: The Case Of Mediterranean Climate, Aya S. Mohamed, Bakr M. Gomaa, Alaa Eldin N. Sarhan

HBRC Journal

The Earth's climate is changing, and projections indicate that global warming will continue throughout this century, leading to increased occurrences of extreme temperatures. This raises critical questions about the performance and resilience of different energy-saving design strategies in buildings under future climatic conditions. To address this, the present study investigates the impact of passive design strategies, including building orientation, window-to-wall ratio, south and east/west shading devices, and thermal insulation on a prototype building's energy performance across four timeframes: 2002, 2020, 2050, and 2080, using validated computer-based thermal simulations. The results indicate that individual strategies vary significantly in their effectiveness, with …

Public Water System Compliance Assessment Framework: Evidence From Mississippi Infrastructure Vulnerability, Jason R. Barrett, Brian Blank, John Wallace

Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education

Regulatory non-compliance among public water systems poses a direct threat to public health, so we develop and apply a compliance assessment framework for state-level data from the Mississippi State Department of Health in order to aid public water systems in updating infrastructure to improve water quality. The framework evaluates public water system compliance across financial, managerial, and technical indicators, producing a composite score to support targeted interventions and data-driven resource allocation. Analyzing 1,107 systems, we identify a tiered structure of deficiencies, ranging from critically non-compliant rural utilities and mobile home parks to mid-range deficient municipal systems, and highlight the 15 …

An Introduction To Forest Management And Its Long-Term Linkages To Water Resources, John W. Groninger, Karl W. J. Williard

Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education

The management of forest-based land uses and water resources largely complement one another. Formal research where vegetation versus water-focused resources intersect has been limited primarily to assessing short-term impacts of intensive forest harvesting operations on water quality or watershed discharge. Outside of harvesting, foresters and watershed managers are generally aware that changes in forest structure or evolving management protocols that play out on multi-decadal scales also impact water resources. However, few studies have addressed these in ways that may influence proactive management decision making. Recent changes in water resources and forest management protocols, driven by forces as diverse as urbanization, …

Early Prediction Of Ssri Treatment Response In Adolescents With Depression Using Multimodal Machine Learning, Addison Pritchett Ms, Catherine Koertje Md, George Quaye Ms, Phd, Andrea Manlove Bsn, Whitney Sparks Ms, Brooke Fridley Ms, Phd, J Steven Leeder Pharmd, Phd

Research Showcase

Background:

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adolescents is commonly treated with Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs). Treatment response is typically assessed every 4-6 weeks after initiating pharmacotherapy, and medication adjustments may be made if the initial regimen is ineffective. This standard-of-care delay can prolong or exacerbate symptom burden and functional impairment. Early prediction of treatment response could support more timely and personalized medication management in adolescents with MDD.

Objectives/Goal:

To develop and evaluate multimodal machine-learning models for early prediction of SSRI treatment response in adolescents with MDD, assessing the predictive value of clinical, wearable, and proteomic features both individually and …
