The costly interactions between humans and wildfires throughout California demonstrate the need to understand the relationships between them, especially in the face of a changing climate and expanding human communities. Although a number of statistical and process-based wildfire models exist for California, there is enormous uncertainty about the location and number of future fires, with previo...

Designers of solar energy systems constantly opt for a photovoltaic generator power higher than the inverter power, i.e. they consider Sizing Factor Inverter (SFI) inferior to unit reduce costs, however this can decrease lifespan and increase clipping losses. This research presents development methodology calculating SFI northeastern regions with semiarid tropical climate, considering influence...

As climate change is projected to impose profound global variations in the freshwater resources, assessing the impacts of the former on the latter is a fundamental task for improving the water management, namely, in arid and semiarid areas, as there a plenty of in countries like Iran. Such is the objective of the present paper, where the impacts of climate change on the water availability in th...

Rock glaciers are receiving increased attention as a potential source of water and indicator climate change in periglacial landscapes. They consist an ice-debris mixture, which creeps downslope. Although rock wide-spread feature on the Tibetan Plateau, characteristics such its ice fraction unknown superficial debris layer inhibits remote assessments. We investigate one glacier semiarid western ...

One of the biggest threats to agro-ecosystems, especially in arid and semiarid areas, is deterioration soil quality, which associated with low organic matter levels. Despite elevated volume publications related quality crops, information about specific plants such as Capia pepper (Capsicum annuum L. cv.) clear economic relevance environments missing. The aim present study investigate effects di...
