Climatic Aridity Gradient Modulates the Diversity of the Rhizosphere and Endosphere Bacterial Microbiomes of Opuntia ficus-indica by Karray, Fatma

“…Blastococcus, Geodermatophilus, Pseudonocardia, Promicromonospora, and Sphingomonas were identified as prevailing hubs and were considered as specific biomarkers taxa, which could play a crucial role on the aridity stress. Overall, our findings highlighted the prominence of the climatic aridity gradient on the equilibrium and diversity of microbial community composition in the rhizosphere and endosphere of cactus.…”

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE POTENTIAL OF USING HYDROGEN AS AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL FOR AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER by QAZAK, ABDUL HAFIZ

“…The highest flame stability is recorded at 24% oxygen, but the flame stability decreases when the oxygen rate increases to 28%. Also, combustion stability improves when hydrogen is added to fuel mixtures and improves when oxygen enrichment is 24% in contrast to oxygen enrichment of 26% as well as adding carbon dioxide which causes a reduction in combustion stability. …”
