Hydrogeochemical Processes in Basement Areas Using Principal Component in Burkina Faso (West African Sahel)
Moussa Diagne Faye , Vini Yves Bernadin Loyara , Amadou Keita , Mamadou Diop , Angelbert Chabi Biaou , Mahamadou Koita, Hamma Yacouba
The basement aquifers in Burkina Faso are increasingly exposed to groundwater pollution, largely due to socio-economic activities and climatic fluctuations, particularly the reduction in rainfall. This pollution makes the management and understanding of these aquifers particularly complex. To elucidate the processes controlling this contaminat(...)

Questioning Interdisciplinarity between Anglophone Literature and Psychology at Université Joseph KI-ZERBO (UJKZ)
MASSIMBO Wôkoudo Marcel
Research in Anglophone literature and psychology often involves studying the internal attributes of authors, characters, and even readers for a better understanding of works. Researchers from the departments of Anglophone studies and psychology at UJKZ follow this method, often applying psychological theories to their studies. Surprisingly, re(...)

Analysis, Quantification and Identification of Pesticides from Lettuce in Ouagadougou City (Burkina Faso)
Sarata Djinda, Yacouba Sanou, Samuel Paré
In Burkina Faso, chemical inputs are used massively in market gardening to increase the yields. The misuse of these chemicals is responsible of contamination of market garden products, leading to the rapid rotting of vegetables. The objective of this study was to determine the pesticides in chemical inputs applied on vegetables produced in Oua(...)

Evaluation of Multi-antibiotic Resistance Index (MAR) and Molecular Characterization of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated in Pathological Products from Chad
Ahmat Mahamat Ahmat , Djibrine Adoum Oumar, Hissein Ousman Abdoullahi, Cissé Hama, Fissou Henry Yandai, Kadidja Gamougam, Abdelsalam Tidjani, Savadogo Aly, Choua Ouchemi
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium present in several ecological niches causing opportunistic infections in humans. In developing countries like Chad, this bacteria is responsible for various human pathologies. High-priority pathogens, such as Salmonella and Shigella, represent a particularly heavy burden in low- and middle-income countries(...)

COPULA OF BERNSTEIN AND DEGREE OF DISCORDANCE
Vini Yves Bernadin LOYARA, Fabrice OUOBA et Rémi Guillaume BAGRE
The analytical expression for the degree of multivariate discordance in probability has a high level of mathematical elegance. This is why we were interested in the degree of discrepancy. In addition, while working on this expression, an application to the Bernstein copula appeared more accessible. We therefore modeled the expression for the B(...)

Optimal Sizing of Output Energy of PV Power Plants under Extreme Climate Conditions: Case of Sudanian Sahel
Boubacar SORO, Amadou DIALLO, Serge Dimitri Y. B. BAZYOMO, Adama OUEDRAOGO, Seyni SALACK; Dieudonné Joseph BATHIEBO, Sié KAM
The present work analyzes the energy production of three 50kWp photovoltaic (PV) power plants which are placed in three climate zones. The Sudano-Sahelian and Sudanian climates have lower average temperatures than the Sahelian environment. The Sudanian climate, next the Sudano-Sahelian zone, and finally the Sahelian region, have the best perfo(...)

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from prescribed fires are poorly investigated, resulting in a high uncertainty in GHG budgets. Using, a carbon mass balance approach and experimental prescribed fires in 80 plots, this study assessed carbon emissions and established emission factors (EFs) for carbon dioxides (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and meth(...)
