planning of watersheds is indispensable in terms of sustainable development and landscape management. therefore, watershed prioritization and morphometric characterization are important to identify hydrological behavior of the basin for conducting management strategies. in this study, geospatial-statistical approach was used for identifying critical and priority sub-watersheds in the golestan w...

study of phenotypic diversity among populations can help better understanding of diversification of species within ecosystems and intraspecific diversification in fishes. a geometric morphometric study was carried out using the elliptic fourier analysis to demonstrate the effect of habitat type on morphological features of shemaya ( alburnus chalcoides ) populations. populations were sampled fr...

Gifted children are able to learn in a more advanced way than others, probably due neurophysiological differences the communication efficiency neural pathways. Topological features contribute understanding correlation between brain structure and intelligence. Despite decades of neuroscience research using MRI, methods based on region connectivity patterns limited by MRI artifacts, which therefo...

Focal cortical dysplasias type II (FCD II) are highly epileptogenic lesions frequently causing pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Detection of these lesions on MRI is still challenging as FCDs may be very subtle in appearance and might escape conventional visual analysis. Morphometric MRI analysis is a voxel-based post-processing method based on algorithms of the statistical parametric mapping softwar...

The relationship between six Abutilon species was examined using different taxonomic investigation tools. carried out morphological and numerical studies. Fresh materials of were collected from localities in Saudi Arabia during 2018 2019. Numerical analysis based on the Principle Coordinates, Component Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Algorithm Clustering. results indicated that the...

A study was performed to analyse the morphometry and morphological variants of adult scaphoid bone in Sikkimese population of North Eastern India. The study included 100 dry human scaphoid bones. The bones which had previous signs of fracture were excluded. The morphometric parameters were measured with vernier caliper of 0.02 mm accuracy; the circumferences were measured by placing a thread ar...

We demonstrate an automated, multi-level method to segment white matter brain lesions and apply it to lupus. The method makes use of local morphometric features based on multiple MR sequences, including T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and fluid attenuated inversion recovery. After preprocessing, including co-registration, brain extraction, bias correction, and intensity standardization, 49 features a...

this paper aims to assess the quality and accuracy aster dems and the arcgis alogorthms used for hydrologic analyses. to this end, first the plan of drainage networks in the region was extracted from aerial photographs and high resolution satellite images and was set as the real ground. in the next step, using the hydrology tool in arcgis software, raster networks of the region for the whole ca...
