Original scientific paper This paper adopted chi-square test and binary logistic regression to analyse factors about mountainous freeway crash severity level in the southeast of China and to determine the factor impact on crash severity level to make corresponding measures to improve road safety. Results of this paper indicated that younger and older drivers, female drivers, weekends and drivin...

Studies of sediment transport problems in mountainous rivers with steep slopes are difficult due to rapid variations in flow regimes, abrupt changes in topography, etc. Sediment transport in mountainous rivers with steep slopes is a complicated subject because bed materials in mountainous rivers are often heterogeneous and contain a wide range of bed material sizes, such as gravel, cobbles, bou...

We conducted a 5-year study on the impact of nutrients, depending on stream and season. grazing on stream-channel bare ground and erosion, and a © CSA 3-year study of cattle-trail erosion on intermittent stream channels draining grazed oak (Quercus)-woodland 450. Correlations of stocking with the cryptogamic soil watersheds. These studies were conducted on the San crust of a semi-arid rangeland...

The establishment of Christmas tree plantations over the last 50 years in Greece has provided an additional income for the inhabitants of certain mountainous and semi-mountainous regions of the country and contributed to their development. In this paper is used a neural network which combined with ARIMA which makes forecast of number of actually cut Christmas trees until the year 2015.

â â â  this paper attempts to investigate the relationship between 500hpa circulation patterns and weather types (coldest, warmest and raining) over 16 synoptic stations of mountainous region of iran. the mountainous region of iran covers about 670000 square kilometer (41 percent) of iran. in this paper have been investigated the relationship between circulation patterns in 500hpa level with we...

This paper aims to provide guidance to ecologists with limited experience in spatial analysis to help in their choice of techniques. It uses examples to compare methods of spatial analysis for ecological field data. A taxonomy of different data types is presented, including pointand area-referenced data, with and without attributes. Spatially and non-spatially explicit data are distinguished. T...
