Groundwater-surface water (GW-SW) interaction lengthens hydraulic residence times, increases contact between solutes and biologically active surfaces, and often creates a gradient of redox conditions conducive to an array of biogeochemical processes. As such, the interaction of hydraulic patterns and biogeochemical activity is suspected to be an important determinant of elemental spiraling in s...

With the objective of contrasting performance between STREAMS and legacy approaches to system facilities, a comparison is made between the tested performance of the Linux Native Sockets TCP implementation and STREAMS TPI SCTP and XTIoS TCP implementations using the Linux Fast-STREAMS package [? ].

this paper seeks to emphasize the flow variability in the calnistea catchment by analyzing the local physiographic factors. the research has shown that the amount of precipitation that falls to the ground is low, the rocks in the region are soft, but highly permeable, gradients are gentle in most of the territory and vegetal cover is sparse and therefore cannot hold important amounts of water. ...

this commentary reflects upon the article along three broad lines. it reflects on the theoretical choices and omissions, particularly highlighting why it is important to adapt the multiple streams framework (msf) when applying it in a socio-political context like vietnam’s. the commentary also reflects upon the analytical threads tackled by ha et al; for instance, it highlights the opportunitie...

this paper presents an analytical model characterizing unsteady groundwater flow in an unconfined aquifer resting on a sloping impervious bed. the aquifer is in contact with a constant water level at one end. the other end is connected to a stream whose level is increasing form an initial level to a final level at a known exponentially decaying function of time. moreover, the aquifer is repleni...

We introduce a simple and accurate neural model for dependency-based semantic role labeling. Our model predicts predicate-argument dependencies relying on states of a bidirectional LSTM encoder. The semantic role labeler achieves competitive performance on English, even without any kind of syntactic information and only using local inference. However, when automatically predicted partof-speech ...

Images are the standard input for vision algorithms, but one-shot infield reflectance measurements are creating new opportunities for recognition and scene understanding. In this work, we address the question of what reflectance can reveal about materials in an efficient manner. We go beyond the question of recognition and labeling and ask the question: What intrinsic physical properties of the...

Abstrac t . We employ a specification and refinement technique based on stream.q to solve the RPC-memory specification problem. Streams are used to represent the communication histories of channels. We distinguish between input and output streams. Each input stream represents the communication history of an input channel; each output stream represents the communication history of an output chan...

In an interconnected world such as the one envisioned by pervasive computing, systems should be able to react to stimuli received from the environment in a streaming fashion. Reactions may include not only performing local updates, but also sending and asking for information from other systems, waiting for responses, and requesting for changes. In this paper we give a short introduction to the ...

To define whether the beta diversity of stream invertebrate communities in New Zealand exhibits geographical variation unexplained by variation in gamma diversity and, if so, what mechanisms (productivity, habitat heterogeneity, dispersal limitation, disturbance) best explain the observed broad-scale beta diversity patterns. We sampled 120 streams across eight regions (stream catchments), spann...
