SPATIAL MODELLING IN THE KARST BIOCLIMATOLOGY Primjena

ثبت نشده
چکیده

The possibilities of the raster-GlS topoclimatic modelling and its applicability in the Karst bioclimatology have been generally presented. The short descriptions of the particular models derived from the digital elevation model include: terrain slope, relative terrain orientation, terrain curvature, direct and diffuse insolation, altitude in the sinkhole, flow accumulation and exposure to wind. These models are spatially exact and also spatially intensive, and they do not have a practical altemative in precise studies of spatial distribution of ecosystem types, particular species or biodiversity. The other contribution in the same volume summarizes the results of such a study on the Croatian Karst.

Studying the factors affecting the karst zonation and development of Khorin Mountain using Fuzzy Logic.

Karstic zones play an important role in feeding the karstic aquifers؛ therefore, recognizing the factors affecting the karst mutation and its zonation in the field of studies concerned with karst water resources is of great concern. The results of these studies can be applied to quantitative and qualitative management and protection of these resources against the pollutions coming from human ac...

Geologia Croatica Modelling microfracture geometry to assess the function of a karst system ( Vízfő spring catchment area , Western Mecsek Mountains , Hungary )

One of the current objectives of karst research is to understand the spatial dynamics of karstic processes that increase or decrease pore volume. Although we can construct 3D numerical models, it is a complex, multi-step process. These modelling approaches combine a dissolution algorithm, a flow and/or transport model and an algorithm to reconstruct the spatial geometry of fracture networks. Th...

Modelling potential impacts of climate change on the oak spatial distribution (Case study: Ilam and Lorestan provinces)

Examining the effects of climate change on the oak spatial distribution, as the main species of Zagros forests and its ecological and economic values is of significant importance. Here, we used species distribution models for simulating current climatic suitability of oak and its potential changes in 2050 and 2070. For this purpose, five regression-based and machine learning approaches, four cl...
