The objective of this study is to develop a feed forward neural network (FFNN) model and a radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) model to predict the dissolved oxygen from biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in the Surma River, Bangladesh. The neural network model...

Growth inhibition tests for copper were carried out on four marine microalgal species: Chlorella autotrophyca, Nannochloris atomus (Chlorophyceae), Phaeodactylum tricornutum (Bacillariophyceae), and Isochrysis aff. galbana (Primnesiophyceae). The test initial cellular densities were reduced to 50 an...
