As a secondary result of oil prospecting in Brazil, samples from the Campos Basin continental slope became available. In these samples, specimens of the genera Microgloma Sanders & Allen, 1973 and Pristigloma Dall, 1900 were found. This contribution provides the southernmost record of the genus Microgloma, the first record of Microgloma mirmidina (Dautzenberg & Fischer 1897) from the western At...

[1] Profiles of Mo/total organic carbon (TOC) through the Lower Toarcian black shales of the Cleveland Basin, Yorkshire, United Kingdom, and the Posidonia shale of Germany and Switzerland reveal water mass restriction during the interval from late tenuicostatum Zone times to early bifrons Zone times, times which include that of the putative Early Toarcian oceanic anoxic event. The degree of res...

in recent decades, neyshabour basin as a semi-arid climate has faced with dramatic increasing of groundwater withdrawal. so, water demand management is important in this basin. in this study, the effects of evapotranspiration and rainfall on groundwater fluctuations have been considered with 22 rain gage and evaporation gage station data during 1973-2006. the average amount of rainfall and evap...

Moon’s early evolution (Safronov 1972, Kaula 1979). The geometries and subsurface structures of large impact basins Altimetric profiles from the Clementine LIDAR are used to calculate the depths of 29 large craters and basins on the Moon. preserve a record of the mechanics of impact, the nature Plotting the depths of the best preserved structures together of basin modification, and the thermal ...

The biped robots have higher mobility than conventional wheeled robots, especially when moving on rough terrains, up and down slopes and in environments with obstacles. The geometry of the biped robot is similar to the human beings, so it is easy to adapt to the human life environment and can help the human beings to finish the complex work. With the development of the society, the needs for ro...

the role of unit hydrograph is very important in prediction of floods in the rivers, design protection and control structures in the catchment area. therefore in the basin without hydrometric stations, by using mathematical and empirical relationship and based on climatic data, the water level in the basin is estimated. two methods of geomorphologic instantaneous unit hydrograph and width funct...

soil conservation and control of erosion is a basic problem in all countries. the goal of this research is to estimate erosion and sediment yield in ekbatan dam drainage basin by erosion potential method (epm), using geographic information system (gis). the basin is located in hamedan province, west of iran, in a cold and semi- arid region, with an average annual rainfall of 334mm. the study ar...

The Bolivian Andes flank one of Earth’s major topographic features and dominate sediment input into the Amazon Basin. Millennial-scale erosion rates and dominant controls on erosion patterns in this range are poorly known. To define these patterns, we present 48 erosion rate estimates, derived from analysis of in situ Be in quartz-bearing alluvium collected from the Upper Beni River basin. Eros...
