Three new heteroleptic copper(II) complexes, [(tmen)Cu(dike)H2O]X where tmen = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, dike = 2-acetylcyclopentanone anion and X= ClO4- (1), Cl- (2) and Br- (3) are prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements and IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. The complex 1 is fairly soluble in various organic solvents and demonstrates d...

Sea level rise due to climate change poses a serious threat human populations in coastal areas. In planning possible countermeasures, it is important consider the potential economic risks and cost of any proposed adaptation. This paper examines effectiveness adaptation measures that combine mangrove afforestation (green infrastructure) dike construction (gray areas considered be at risk inundat...

Introduction: Since its discovery during the first flyby of the MESSENGER spacecraft, the origin of Pantheon Fossae (PF), a complex structure consisting of radial graben in the center of the Caloris Basin, Mercury, has been intensely debated. Several studies looked at the larger context for its formation, where three different formation theories have been suggested, i.e. basin-interior uplift [...

Abstract Flood disaster is a common problem, especially in densely populated urban, coastal, and basin areas, respectively. This leads to the development of Mini Polder design, which used solve problem flooding agricultural land. The design projected lebak swamp Ampukung village, Tabalong Regency, Indonesia, covering an area 393 Ha. Therefore, this study aims determine hydraulic performance min...

Introduction: Scatter radiation is one of the major sources of error in nuclear medicine data processing. Different methods of scatter correction have been introduced in order to improve the quality of data. However the best method is to avoid recording of scatter photons in acquisition. The only difference between scattered and non-scattered photons is the energy. Pulse height analyzer i...

Levees are the most frequently used flood protection measure worldwide. In central Europe, they have been built systematically since beginning of 19th century. After extreme regional floods in 1997, 2002 and 2013, need arose for a more systematic optimised approach to levee design management, including decommissioning ineffective dike reaches. this paper, multicriterial algorithm is presented o...
