Dubai creek can be considered as the focal point of Dubai. It has great importance for trading and aesthetic values. Total and leachable heavy metals (Cd, Co, Ni, Pb and Zn), organic carbon and total carbonate were studied ...
Modern and Ancient Sabkha Environments -Boron Isotopes as Discriminators of Facies and Uses in Base Metal Exploration
(
Qatar University
, 1999 , Article)
Boron isotopic analyses were performed on samples of stromatolite representative of intertidal conditions within modem and Early Proterozoic sabkhas. The intertidal zone at Al-Khiran in southern Kuwait shows a range of 5^ ...
Approximating the Distribution of Quadratic Forms Using Orthogonal Polynomials
(
Qatar University
, 1999 , Article)
In this paper we propose some techniques to approximate the distribution of quadratic forms in normal random variables. The first two techniques will be based on orthogonal polynomials, namely; the Hermitte and Laguerre ...

In this study, tritiated leucine was injected into the vagal dorsal motor nucleus after acute and chronic partial vagotomy. The method of sampling of the stomach, application of % 2 test and the analysis of the electron ...
Chromite Enrichment in the Recent Fluviatile Sediments, North Iraq
(
Qatar University
, 1999 , Article)
The Recent sediments from North Iraq are characterized by a higher content of chromite. This paper deals with the mineralogy and geochemistry of chromite in the heavy mineral assemblages from Recent fluvial sediments in ...
Algae Along Qatar Coasts Utilization And Future Prospects
(
Qatar University
, 1999 , Article)
Most of marine algae have no equivalent on earth and therefore could be considered as irreplaceable sources of primary and secondary metabolites. This is especially the case for hydrocolloids from red and brown algae that ...
