ABSTRACT In this project (A Multi-Wavelength View of M17 Massive Star-Forming Region), efforts were made to determine the distributions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) within the M17 region. We find that PAHs are destroyed over a short distance or edge of the HII region. This PAH destruction edge can be located easily using Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE) band-ratio images. We try to find out the relative roles of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and...
Abstract: Climate variability and change have serious direct and indirect consequences for crop production and nitrous oxide (N2O) emission in rainfed agriculture-based developing countries in general and in semi-arid environments like the Great Rift Valley (GRV) of Ethiopian particular. Agriculture is a sector that is vulnerable to the effects of climate change while it is contributing both as a sink and source to anthropogenic N2Oemission. Therefore, applying Climate Smart Crop Production ...
