Human-Driven Determinants of Wetland Degradation and Implications for Environmental Management: A Mixed-methods Study of Kabogobogo Wetland, Gisagara District, Rwanda

Izerumuganwa Jean Paul & Isaac Areo · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

Small, community-managed wetlands in East Africa remain comparatively under-researched relative to large, nationally significant wetland systems, despite mounting anthropogenic pressure and their disproportionate importance to rural livelihoods. This study examined the human-driv...

Integrated Sedimentology, Organic Geochemistry, and Depositional Environment of the Ogwashi–ASABA Formation at Mgbiligba Spring, Southern Nigeria

Oludewa Joseph Mode · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

Despite the hydrocarbon significance of the Ogwashi–Asaba Formation in the Niger Delta Basin, integrated sedimentological and organic geochemical investigations of the Mgbiligba Spring exposure remain limited, resulting in an incomplete understanding of its depositional history a...

Comparative Evaluation of Robust Hybrid and Modulated RMS Seismic Attributes for Reflector Enhancement and Spike Suppression Using Two Synthetic Datasets and Six Real Seismic Lines

Daisi Israel Komolafe · Asian Journal of Geological Research · 2026

Conventional root-mean-square amplitude is widely used to represent local seismic reflection energy, but its quadratic dependence on amplitude makes it susceptible to impulsive spikes, amplitude extremes, and spatial broadening of high-energy responses. This study develops and ev...
