Abstract: Babile Elephant Sanctuary (BES), in the semi-arid part of eastern Ethiopia, has long been known for comprising one of the globally threatened, ecologically isolated and possibly distinctive subsp. of elephant population (Loxodonta Africana orleansi). As this review describe a total 55 plant species composed of 37 genera and 24 families were identified. Out of these, shrubs have accounted for 94.9% while trees constituted only 5.1% of the total density. Fabaceae, Tiliaceae and Capparidaceae are the most dominant family 1st, 2nd and 3rd dominant respectively. Browsing elephant, anthropogenic and invasive alian are the major threat of plant species in Babile elephant sanctuary. Acacia robusta, Acacia senegal, Commiphora erythraea, Acacia nilotica, Balanites glabra, Acacia mellifera, A. tortilis and A. seyal are the major useful plant and impacted species by human use, browsing elephant and invasive. Therefore, Future research should also focus on detailed assessment of current vegetation status in the Sanctuary; Rehabilitation by plantation especially the indigenous multi-purpose tree species that are highly threatened but still available in the valley should be given emphasis.

Abstract: This paper expresses the rate of permeability flow monitored at various locations in deltaic environment of Yenagoa. The depositions of permeability were to determine the rate of Phreatic deposition including yield rate in the study location. Monitoring permeability in heterogeneous fine sand formation in Phreatic bed has not been thorough carried out in deltaic formations, the negligence of yield rate prediction has been generating design failure in ground water and well design, monitoring and evaluation of ground water flow system has not been thorough determined, these has developed lots of abortive wells due to negligence in water well construction, base on these conditions, modeling approach to predict the variation depositions of permeability were found imperative, the derived model generated predictive values, these were simulated to produce theoretical values validated with experimental data, both parameters developed faviourably fits, experts in ground water engineering will found the model useful in their design and construction of water wells.

Abstract: These papers study the deposition of nitrogen transport under the influences of void ratio in the study area, the transport process were examined thoroughly thorough development of mathematical modelling compared with physiochemical investigation for model validation. This was carried out to find the rate of nitrogen concentration in the study environment, the alarming rate of microbial growth from the investigation is a seriously concern causing hundred of ill health in the study location. The application of this modelling techniques generated detailed sources of nitrogen deposition at different depth and time. The developed model from the graphical representation shows that nitrogen deposition are influenced by the variation of void ratio, some location experienced exponential and vacillation determined from the derived model simulation values, high growth rate sources from micronutrient has be examined thus stratum where high concentration are deposited has been observed. The study is imperative because it has express sources of nitrogen thoroughly. Finally, it has predicted the rate of nitrogen concentration under the influences of predominated void ratio in the study area.

Abstract: This paper monitor the rate of homogeneous velocity in soil and water environment, several experts in different ways has developed other homogeneity of velocity outside deltaic formation, but the development model were to monitor the deposition of homogeneous velocity in the study location, this will generate monitoring of yield rate in the abstraction of ground water in the study environment, such condition were found significant to bleach the gap on monitoring and evaluation of homogeneous flow rate through predictive model, groundwater abstraction will definitely reduces abortive well through this source, the derived model will definitely monitor homogeneity of flow in design and construction of water wells, the developed concept will predict the homogeneous flow velocity in deltaic environment. The study has provided various dimensions that have generated the homogeneity of velocity through application of this derived model, experts will find this study significant in determining the homogeneous velocity of flow in deltaic formation.

Abstract: This paper evaluates partial deposition of Caulobacter and its rate of transport in soil and water environment. The study monitored the migration process in homogeneous gravel formation. The study area predominantly deposits homogeneous gravel formation where it partially deposits Caulobacter in sequence through the lithology to phreatic bed within a short period. The rate of transport has not been monitored to determined there rate of porosity through hydraulic conductivity influences, these condition were found to pressured the contaminant fast to Phreatic bed in the study location, the transport process were integrated in the developed system that generated derived model to predict the transport process to unconfined bed. The developed model expresses various rate of concentration through simulation were partial deposition of Caulobacter in fluctuation were observed, Such theoretical values were compared with other experimental results for model validation; both parameters compared faviourably well expressing validation rate for the study, experts will definitely use these tools in monitoring the transport rate of Caulobacter in gravel formation.
