Effect of Pistachio Shell Biochar and Organic Cow Manure Application on Plant Growth, Water Retention Capacity and Nutrient Stress Mitigation by Snigdhendubala Pradhan (9872262)

“…Cow manure is a good nutrient resource to enhance soil fertility and plant growth but requires a suitable amender to reduce the nutrients loss by leaching. Worldwide more than 20,400 metric tonnes of pistachios were consumed where roughly 30% of the weight of the nut is the shell which could be a good feedstock for biochar production. …”

COVID‐19 vaccine hesitancy and attitudes in Qatar: A national cross‐sectional survey of a migrant‐majority population by Majid Alabdulla (12051430)

“…Citizens and females were more likely to be vaccine hesitators than immigrants and males, respectively. Concerns around the safety of COVID-19 vaccine and its longer-term side effects were the main concerns cited. …”

Culture-based and molecular investigation of antibiotic and metal resistance in a semi-arid agricultural soil repeatedly amended with urban sewage sludge by Sonia Mokni-Tlili (20487266)

“…Besides, the two last sludge lots applied in fall 2019 and 2020 contained cultivable ARB for all addressed antibiotics at much higher counts than in corresponding treated soils. Interestingly, the average index of antibiotic resistance (ARB/THB) increased in the USS used in fall 2020 compared to 2019 (from 6.2% to 9.4%). …”

Evaluation of highly active and stable SiO₂ supported Fe-based catalysts for the catalytic methane decomposition into COx free hydrogen and CNTs by Assem T. Mohamed (16023355)

“…All supported catalysts exhibited comparatively high activity than the unsupported 100 wt% Fe (denoted as 100F) catalyst which was the least active. …”

Collaborative hierarchical caching and transcoding in edge network with CE-D2D communication by Emna Baccour (16896366)

“…The simulation results show that our policies and heuristics outperform other edge caching approaches by more than 10% in terms of hit ratio, average delay, and cost.…”

Impact of COVID-19 related home confinement measures on the lifestyle, body weight, and perceived glycemic control of diabetics by Muna Abed Alah (14779534)

“…We found a significant increase in the sitting/reclining, and screen times. …”

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the perinatal mental health of women by Tom Farrell (7951295)
