Indonesia has 74,093 villages and as many 1,073 have the potential to be developed into tourist villages. Surau Village, Bengkulu Province, is one of that a village. The results mapping natural can leading destinations been carried out it agreed there are six locations destinations, namely Blue Lake, Silver Bridge, White Napal Hill, Geothermal Springs, Waterfalls, Lubuk Vi. Pioneering efforts t...

Las Loras UNESCO Global Geopark (UGGp) is geologically diverse, particularly in relation to water-derived features: springs, karst travertine buildings, waterfalls, caves. In this work, the interactions between geology, geomorphology, structures and hydrogeology are analyzed. As a result of study, first conceptual model hydrogeological functioning at UGGp presented. The most plausible hypothesi...

If knickpoints transmit signals of base level fall in river networks, then improvements in our understanding of their retreat rate and basin wide distribution helps constrain the transient response following perturbation. Many studies of knickpoint retreat focus on the response of trunk streams to base level fall. Here we examine the response of an entire fluvial network, as recorded by 236 act...

When the left coronary artery was perfused with nonpulsatile pressure, the onset of diastole was accompanied by a capacitance overshoot in flow with an exponential decay back to a steady state. Time constant for that decay ranged from 55 msec when tone was present to 105 msec with maximal dilation. Since the transient resulted from a fall in tissue pressure, this represents an estimation of int...

Stream acidifi cation across the northeastern US impacts fi sh abundance and fi sh communities. In this study, we document a fi sh community shift in the upper mainstem of Hubbard Brook (NH) from the presence of at least three species in the 1960s to the presence of only one species today. Cottus cognatus (Slimy Sculpin) and Rhinichthys atratulus (Blacknose Dace) are no longer present in this s...

The computer game industry requires a skilled workforce and this combined with the complexity of modern games, means that production costs are extremely high. One of the most time consuming aspects is the creation of game geometry, the virtual world which the players inhabit. Procedural techniques have been used within computer graphics to create natural textures, simulate special effects and g...

PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of health care policy on the development of integrated mental health services in England. DATA SOURCES Drawing largely from a narrative review of the literature on adult mental health services published between January 1997 and February 2003 undertaken by the authors, we discuss three case studies of integrated care within primary ca...

We present an algorithm based on statistical learning for synthesizing static and time-varying textures matching the appearance of an input texture. Our algorithm is general and automatic, and it works well on various types of textures including 1D sound textures, 2D texture images and 3D texture movies. The same method is also used to generate 2D texture mixtures that simultaneously capture th...

This paper examines the audio-visual interaction and perception of water features used over road traffic noise, including their semantic aural properties, as well as their categorization and evocation properties. The research focused on a wide range of small to medium sized water features that can be used in gardens and parks to promote peacefulness and relaxation. Paired comparisons highlighte...
