Spatio-temporal variation and focal mechanism of the Wenchuan MS8.0 earthquake sequence

Spatio-temporal variation of wheat and silage maize water requirement using CGMS model

The Crop Growth Monitoring System (CGMS) has been applied for spatial biophysical resource analysis of Borkhar & Meymeh district in Esfahan province, Iran. The potentially suitable area for agriculture in the district has been divided into 128 homogeneous land units in terms of soil (physical characteristics), weather and administrative unit. Crop parameters required in the WOFOST simulatio...

Tectonic Background of the Wenchuan Earthquake

31 march 2006 darbe astaneh silakhor earthquake, focal mechanism determination

one of the methods for the determination of focal mechanisms of earthquakes is the linear inversion of moment tensor in time domain. that method is used here for determining of the focal mechanisms the darbe astaneh silakhor earthquake of 31 march 2006 and two of its foreshocks and six aftershocks with local magnitude more than 4. the data of six broadband stations of the international institut...

Spatio-Temporal Variation of Suspended Sediment Concentration at Downstream of a Sand Mine

The growing population led to greater human need to use natural resources such as sand and gravel mines. Direct removal of sands from the bed river leads to increase suspended sediment concentrations in downstream of harvested area and creates other problems viz. filling reservoirs, change in hydraulic characteristics of the channel and environmental damages. However, the range of temporal and ...

Quantitative spatio-temporal sequence discovery

Quantitative spatio-temporal (ST) sequences represent chains of ST event types in a ST framework. For example, it has been widely observed that deforestation in peat-land regions in Southeast Asia are often followed by forest fires, in close proximity of space and time [9]. Such patterns between deforestation and forest fires are attributed to the physical phenomena of degradation of soil due t...
