Influence of Fines on the Compressibility of Surface Sands in Kuwait by Al-Abdulmuhsen, Shaikhah A. N.

“…Moreover, with increasing fines, the compressibility increased as demonstrated by the larger values of Cc at all degrees of relative compaction except at 100% and that the coefficient of consolidation Cv decreased with increasing fines, which means that as the fines increase the time required to achieve a certain degree of consolidation will also increase.…”

Preliminary Observations On The Relative Growth And Production Of Tilapia Species Cultured In Cages At Three Stocking Densities by Al Zahaby, A. S. [الاحمدي الذهبي]

“…Results indicated that the individual growth rate of both species decreased with increased stocking densities with a best aggregate stocking rate of 200 fish/m3 for both species.The maximum production rates of 32.0 and 17.4 kg/m^six months and final average size of 178.7 and 108.7 gm/fish were recorded for T.nilotica and T. galilaea respectively.The range of food conversion ratios for T. nilotica were between 2.83 and 3.57 while for T. galilaea were 3.88 and 5.20 with efficiency decreasing with increasing stocking density. …”
