Estimation Error of Areal Average Rainfall and Its Effect on Runoff Computation

an investigation of the impact of self monitoring on langauge teachers motivational practice and its effect on learners motivation

the central purpose of this study was to conduct a case study about the role of self monitoring in teacher’s use of motivational strategies. furthermore it focused on how these strategies affected students’ motivational behavior. although many studies have been done to investigate teachers’ motivational strategies use (cheng & d?rnyei, 2007; d?rnyei & csizer, 1998; green, 2001, guilloteaux & d?...

Estimation of Rainfall and its Error Characteristics from Satellite Observations

Currently, rainfall retrieval over ocean from passive microwave satellite observations represents the best compromise between estimation accuracy and spatial data coverage. Infrared data is available with higher temporal frequency from geostationary satellites but the link of top-of-the-atmosphere infrared emission to near-surface rainfall is very indirect. Therefore, all algorithms have to exp...

the effect of explicit versus implicit error correction on writing of iranian intermediate efl learners

در این پایان نامه دو روش اصلاح اشتباهات نوشتاری زبان آموزان بزرگسال ایرانی در سطح متوسط مورد بررسی قرار می گیرد. در روش اول (explicit) اشتباهات بطور مستقیم و در روش دوم (implicit) اشتباهات بصورت غیر مستقیم اصلاح می شود. برای انجام این تحقیق از دو گروه 15 نفری استفاده شده است. به زبان آموزان در هر جلسه یک موضوع انشا داده شده است. این کار در 15 هفته (15 جلسه) تکرار شده است. مقایسه نتایج این آزمون...

Parameter estimation in stochastic rainfall-runoff models

A parameter estimation method for stochastic rainfall-runoff models is presented. The model considered in the paper is a conceptual stochastic model, formulated in continuous-discrete state space form. The model is small and a fully automatic optimization is, therefore, possible for estimating all the parameters, including the noise terms. The parameter estimation method is a maximum likelihood...
