Over the last decade, neural networks-based flood forecast systems have been increasingly used in hydrological studies. Usually, input data of the network are composed by past measurements of flows and rainfalls, without providing a description of the saturation state of the basin, which in contrast plays a key role in the rainfall-runoff process. Here, we adopt a fuzzy approach in order to pro...

The paper represents a comparative cytogenetic analysis of three populations of Hypostomus regani in Brazil.Two populations belong to the Upper Paraná River Basin and the third one, the karyotype of which is described for the first time, was probably introduced into the São Francisco River Basin through transposition from the Piumhi River. Karyotype features of populations of Hypostomus regani ...

[1] TheMoscoviense Basin, on the northern portion of the lunar farside, displays topography with a partial peak ring, in addition to rings that are offset to the southeast. These rings do not follow the typical concentric ring spacing that is recognized with other basins, suggesting that they may have formed as a result of an oblique impact or perhaps multiple impacts. In addition to the unusua...

This study analyses the increasing number of catastrophic floods in the Niger River Basin, focusing on the relation between long term hydro-climatic variability and flood risk over the last 40 to 100 years. Time series for three subregions (Guinean, Sahelian, Benue) show a general consistency between the annual maximum discharge (AMAX) and climatic decadal patterns in West Africa regarding both...

Safe and reliable design and operation of fixed and floating marine structures often located in remote and hostile environments is challenging. Rigorous extreme value analysis of meteorological and oceanographic data can greatly aid the design of such structures. Extreme value analysis is typically undertaken for single spatial locations or for small neighbourhoods; moreover, non-stationary eff...

sarygamesh basin one of the bulhary chay tributary take place in moghan plain, northeastern azarbyjan area in iran and south edge of kora- araz zone. aims of this research are study specificities and geomorphic evolution of sarygamesh basin, survey rivers work on structure and geologic formation, and corresponding hydrographic with earth structure. toward above aim is used to litologic, structu...

Abstract A regional 2D conceptual model was constructed to study the hydrocarbon systems associated with Middle Sarvak source rock (Cenomanian) in southeastern Persian Gulf basin. The cross section used for this purpose 135 km long and encompassed a total of 17 depositional units Late Jurassic Surmeh Formation at base Aghajari/Mishan sequences top. Compositional type II-S kinetics considered ro...

lake maharlu basin is located in a synclinal valley of the folded zagros. the frame and rugged structure of the basin is made of three units of mountainous geomorphologic, smooth levels and tectonic hole and evolved during several geological periods under the effect of interactive relations of tectonic, climatology and hydro geomorphologic processes. in this study, the researchers applied histo...

The arapaima, Arapaima gigas, is a fish whose populations are threatened by both overfishing and the ongoing destruction of its natural habitats. In the Amazon basin, varying levels of population structure have been found in A. gigas, although no data are available on the genetic diversity or structure of the populations found in the Araguaia-Tocantins basin, which has a topographic profile, hy...
