Hydrogeochemical and multi-tracer investigations of arsenic-affected aquifers in semi-arid West Africa
Anja Bretzler, Lucien Stolze, Julien Nikiema, Franck Lalanne, Elaheh Ghadiri, Matthias S. Brennwald, Massimo Rolle, Mario Schirmer
The semi-arid Sahel regions of West Africa rely heavily on groundwater from shallow to moderately deep (10 mg/L) stemming from the oxidation of sulphide minerals (pyrite, arsenopyrite) in mineralised zones. These aquifers are still little investigated, especially concerning groundwater residence times and the influence of the annual monsoon s(...)

Ethnomedicinal Use, Phytochemical Constituents and Bioactivity of Wild Edible Fruits Commonly Consumed in Burkina Faso
Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa COMPAORÉ, Martin Kiendrebeogo
La nature regorge d’innombrable ressources à exploiter par ses occupants. En savanes guinéennes, de nombreux fruits sauvages sont consommés par les populations rurales. Il existe un important commerce pour certains fruits, mais la majorité d’entre eux est consommée crue sur les lieux même de la cueillette. Cette revue s’est fait pour objet de(...)

Roger Sombié, Arnaud Jean Florent Tiendrébéogo, Wendpouiré Patrice Laurent Guiguimdé , Alice Guingané, Souhouto Tiendrébéogo, Kampadilemba Ouoba, Alain Bougouma
Introduction: L’halitose, état morbide caractérisé par une mauvaise haleine, présente à la fois un aspect pathologique et social. Dans notre contexte, l’halitose pose de nombreux problèmes de prise en charge aux plans diagnostique et thérapeutique en pratique clinique. Le but de notre travail était d’étudier les aspects diagnostiques et thérap(...)

Effect of slanted soil design and filter media distribution on the removal of fecal bacteria and organic matter from greywater
MAIGA Ynoussa, NDIAYE Awa, SANGARE Drissa, BITIE Emeline, USHIJIMA Ken
Slanted Soil Treatment System (SSTS) was previously designed for onsite greywater treatment. In this study, several configurations were tested with granitic gravel in order to improve its efficiency. The lowest average removal efficiencies for fecal coliforms, enterococci and E. coli were 1.78, 2.15 and 2.21 log u. respectively and originated(...)

A New Clipping Function for PAPR Mitigation: The Gaussian Clipping Function
Jacques Palicot, Yves Louet, Désiré Guel
A Gaussian function to clip multicarrier modulation is presented in this paper in order to decrease their Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). The Gaussian clipping (GC) function is a soft non-linear function which keeps constant the average power of the signal, what is a characteristic of great importance in real transmission. The characterist(...)
