In this paper, dielectric measurements were carried out to obtain conductivity, permittivity (real and imaginary parts) loss tangent of Dead Sea water. These properties measured using two different methods: Vector Network Analyzer “VNA” (Dielectric Assessment Kit “DAK”) Four Probe method, all taken at room temperature (25˚C). The collected data has been analyzed in the frequency range (200 MHz ...

Wind channeling by small wadis of few kilometers width at the Dead-Sea area is demonstrated with highresolution modeling. Previous works have not shown such channeling in very small rivers due to computation difficulties on the mesoand the lack of suitable observations for verification. The wind channeling is demonstrated in three wadis, and was verified by meteorological model simulations on t...

Synthesis of regional plate movements reveals a major reorganization of global plate motion from Mesozoic to Cenozoic patterns that occurred primarily during the Eocene epoch (53.5 to 37.5 m.y.B.P.). The reorganization involved reorientation of relative plate motions with large N-S components into large E-W components, continuation of pre-existing E-W sea floor spreading, initiation of new E-W ...

The discovery of  ipper tags from 14 Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) in the stomach of a dead killer whale (Orcinus orca) in 1992 focused attention on the possible role of killer whale predation in the decline of Steller sea lions in western Alaska. In this study, mariners in British Columbia and Alaska were surveyed to determine the frequency and outcome of observed attacks on sea lion...
