introduction flood is a natural hazard that its occurrences can be observed more frequently in recent years. for better flood mitigation and control, it is needed to identify flood production factors and determine the high potential flood areas. hydrological model is a simplified representation of natural system and the rainfall-runoff model is one of the most frequently used events for flood s...

[1] The morphologic transition from complex impact craters, to peak-ring basins, and to multi-ring basins has been well-documented for decades. Less clear has been the morphometric characteristics of these landforms due to their large size and the lack of global high-resolution topography data. We use data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) instrument onboard the Lunar Reconnaissance...

because of insufficient factors including facilities, budget, human resources as well as time watershed operation is not applicable throughout the basin. as a result, watershed operation should be performed in the sub-basins in which is more affectionate and the risk frequency of some events such as destruction, degradation; physical and financial damage and also flooding are considerably high....

In the northern suburbs of Chicago, stormwater catch basins are the primary source of vector mosquitoes targeted by the local mosquito abatement district, and therefore effective catch basin larvicides are needed. From June to September 2011, Natular XRT was applied at label rate to a cluster of 20 catch basins and compared to a cluster of 20 untreated basins all within a small 0.21 km2 area of...

Introduction: Rembrandt impact basin (~715 km in diameter) is one the largest and most well-preserved impact basins on Mercury [1]. Crater density measurements indicate that Rembrandt is comparable in age to the Caloris impact basin, the largest and also one of the youngest basins on Mercury [e.g., 2, 3]. The basin rim-crest is visible and several massifs define an inner ring approximately 450 ...

[1] The Vienna Basin at the transition between the Alpine and Carpathian belt hosts a number of large Pleistocene sub-basins forming along an active continental scale strike-slip fault (Vienna Basin strike-slip fault). We utilize first-order derivatives from industrial Bouguer gravity data to unravel the impacts of Pleistocene kinematics on the Vienna Basin and to compensate for the lack of nea...

Soil conservation and control of erosion is a basic problem in all countries. The goal of this research is to estimate erosion and sediment yield in Ekbatan Dam drainage basin by Erosion Potential Method (EPM), using Geographic Information System (GIS). The basin is located in Hamedan Province, west of Iran, in a cold and semi- arid region, with an average annual rainfall of 334mm. The study ar...

In this paper we show that there is an analytic and computable dynamical system with a hyperbolic sink s such that the basin of attraction of s is not computable. As a consequence, the problem of determining basins of attraction for analytic hyperbolic systems is not, in general, algorithmically solvable. 1 Summary of the paper Dynamical systems are fascinating mathematical objects. They can be...
