Productivity Evaluation of Three Introduced Quinoa Varieties under Central Highlands Conditions in Yemen

The experiment was conducted at the Research Station of Middle Heights, during 2014 and 2015 seasons. Three varieties of Quinoa were used i.e. Ames 13762, NSL 106398 and Ames 137, which were introduced from International Center for Bio Saline Agriculture (ICBA), and they were selected out of five varieties that were grown as observation lines in 2013, to get one variety, high forage and grain yields, also suitable for the local conditions. RCBD design with four replications was used. The traits that were studied were: Earliness, plant height, flowering at 50%, green forage, grain and dry matter yields. Results indicated that there were highly significant (p≤0.01) differences between seasons and varieties in respect to plant height, green forage, dry matter and grain yields. While, no significant effect for the interaction between varieties and seasons overall growth performances.

The Architectural Thought for Residential Building in Sana'a between Tradition and Contemporary

This research highlights the elements of the traditional residence building in Sana'a, and tends to explain its intellectual trends, environmental, economic, social and cultural, in order to conclude a set of results, recommendations and suggestions that will contribute to the promotion and development of the level of thinking design in a building housing Yemeni contemporary and future, in accordance with the requirements of modern economic and social development. The problem of this research is that Yemeni modern buildings do not respond exactly to the actual population needs. This fact indicates that most of the designs came disproportionately with the cultural aspect of objective human behavior of the Yemeni society, its customs and traditions. in addition, other problems may arise, in environmental, economic and social sectors, that are related to architectural and urban concepts

Mahamoud Nadeem Pasha – The Syrian Ottoman Wali in Yemen His Activities in the Period 1906-1924

This paper is an endeavor to evaluate the activities of Mahmoud Nadeem, the Syrian Pasha who worked as Wali in Yemen in the period 1913-1917. At that time، Yemen was one of the important strategic points during the first World War and، hence، became the scene of intense fighting and conflict of interests. The paper highlights the role of Pasha Mahmoud Nadeem before the First World War when he was the official representative of the Ottoman Empire in Yemen. Then it presents his Arab-nationalistic role to protect Yemen against the growing colonial interests of Britain after the end of the war. In addition, the paper shows up his contributions in fostering the rule of Imam Yehia Hameed-Adeen and the suppression of the separatist movements which rose against the latter.

Study of Palaeomagnetism and Magnetic and Some Physical Properties of Tertiary Igneous Rocks of Sana’a Region (Republic of Yemen)

Palaeomagnetism and some magnetic and physical properties (magnetic susceptibility, intensity of remanent magnetization, ac current electrical conductivity and density) of 115 samples from 18 sites of the Yemen Volcanic Group TKY (Tertiary and (or) Cretaceous) from igneous rock exposures from Sana’a region were studied. One palaeomagnetic pole position was determined and a magneto-strigraphy of the area was suggested. The different properties were measured in order to use them as characteristic factors in discriminating the neighboring igneous flows. The measurement of the in situ magnetic susceptibility of 80 points, distributed on 4 sub-areas, in the area helped to calculate the mean value of the magnetic susceptibility of each sub-area, which may be used in any magnetic interpretation of aeromagnetic or magnetic anomalies. Also, the density of 115 samples were measured and a mean value of the density of each sub-area and an overall mean density of each rock age, were calculated in order to be used in any future interpretation of any gravity anomaly in the area.

Pictures Patterns & Psychological Denotations In the Modern Poetry in Yemen

This paper discusses the poetic patterns and psychological which are conveyed by imagery in modern Poetry Divan in Yemen, and which Poets used to direct their meaning. Images in poets divans varied between simile, sensational images and metaphorical prosopopoeia, embodiment, "symbolism" the images that displays poet mentality. The psychological functions achieved by rhetorical uses create a bridge of understanding with audience. They show a gap in the relation between the images and psychological denotations, and they carry a plenty of contemporary significance in their symbols, these pictures will remain in the interior constructing context which came from undulation of the psychological movement whether these images were sensational, mental or symbolic. So employing the psychological rhetoric and is denotation by the poets is confined to articulation only, but exceeds to the inspirations & psychological undulation which addresses the conscience, therefore the poets did not use certain rhetoric pattern or type of images move a the others, but they widened the use of rhetoric so as to able to deal with reality in all its facts and forms, and explain their attitudes and feeling towards this reality.

Comparative Literature: Its Implications for Yemeni Learners of English

This paper deals with Comparative Literature (CL) as it can be employed in Teaching Literature. After surveying the importance of CL as a whole, it proposes that CL can enhance teaching literature to Yemeni learners of English.

Study of Palaeomagnetism and Some Magnetic and Physical Properties of Some Tertiary Igneous Rocks between Sana’a and Al-Hudyadah Region (Republic of Yemen)

Palaeomagnetism and some magnetic and physical properties (magnetic susceptibility, intensity of the Natural Remnant Magnetization (NRM), ac current electrical conductivity and density) of 136 samples from 22 sites of the Yemen Volcanic Group TKY (Tertiary and (or) Cretaceous) from igneous rock exposures along the road from Sana’a – west towards Al-Hudyadah were studied. A single population consists of seven Virtual Geomagnetic Poles (VGP), of the Upper Oligocene, was accepted and a mean at 182.81° E, 77.44° N with α95= 12.5° was calculated. The different properties were measured in order to use these properties as characteristic factors to discriminate the neighboring igneous flows. The measurement of the in situ magnetic susceptibility of 140 points, distributed on 7 sub-areas, in the region helped to calculate the mean value of the magnetic susceptibility of each sub-area, which might be used in any magnetic interpretation of aeromagnetic or magnetic anomalies. Also, the density of 132 samples were measured and a mean value of the density of each sub-area was calculated in order to be used in any future interpretation of any gravity anomaly in the area.
