Various hydrological models have been developed for estimating root zone soil moisture dynamics. These models, however, incorporated their own parameterization approaches indicating that the output from the different model inherent structures might include uncertainties because we do not know which model structure is correct for describing the real system. More recently, multimodel approaches u...

Numerical simulations are conducted using the Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) to investigate the impact of land–vegetation processes on the prediction of mesoscale convection observed on 24–25 May 2002 during the International H2O Project (IHOP_2002). The control COAMPS configuration uses the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model version of the Noah land sur...

The regional terrestrial water cycle is strongly altered by human activities. Among them, reservoir regulation a way to spatially and temporally allocate resources in basin for multi-purposes. However, it still not sufficiently understood how modifies the terrestrial- subsequently, atmospheric cycle. To address this question, representation of into component fully coupled Earth system models re...

Vegetated surfaces, such as grasslands and croplands, constitute a significant portion of the earth’s surface and play an important role in land–atmosphere exchange processes. This study focuses on one important parameter used in describing the exchange of moisture from vegetated surfaces: the minimum canopy resistance (rcmin). This parameter is used in the Jarvis canopy resistance scheme that ...

Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation(SANT) is benign neoplasm originating from vascular cells of the spleen. These tumors are rare between splenic lesions. In this paper,we present a SANT that arose in the upper pole of the spleen of a 61-years-old female. During the examination for anemia and diabetes mellitus,an splenic mass was found incidentally at the CT imaging. Open laparotomy w...

Many RFID authentication protocols have been proposed for safe drug administration. Unfortunately, many of the proposed protocols have security weaknesses that put the safety and/or privacy of inpatients into danger. A recent protocol is analyzed in this work, which proves to be another such example. The secrets of the inpatient tag are exposed by software and a table created by the present aut...
