The estimation model was constructed to estimate the evapotranspiration and canopy interception from the forest stand using the parameters showing the forest structure such as stem density, tree height and leaf area index. This model is expected to have the ability to estimate the effect of forest management such as stem thinning and leaf amount control. Comparing the calculated rate by this mo...

An interception model is derived that links the temporal variability of rainfall with the stormbased description of the interception process. Analytical formulae are obtained for precipitation occurrence with idealized statistical characteristics. The analysis of the results indicates that point interception loss is controlled primarily by three time scales: the mean inter-storm arrival time a,...

When compared with access network interception, Lawful Interception of the Internet is both more difficult and much less mature. However, Internet interception is becoming increasingly more important as Law Enforcement Agencies find that access network interception is becoming less effective. Unfortunately, the most common approach to Internet interception has some fundamental weaknesses, which...

In The Cancer Genome Atlas the goals were to define how to treat advanced cancers with targeted therapy. However, the challenges facing cancer interception for early detection and prevention include length bias in which current screening and surveillance approaches frequently miss rapidly progressing cancers that then present at advanced stages in the clinic with symptoms (underdiagnosis). In c...

this research was carried out in a reforest at shirvanagriculturecollegein two years (2005-2007). the aim of this research was to determine of canopy interception loss, throughfall and stemflow. four trees species were used including pinus nigra, cupressus sempervirens, robinia pseudacacia and platanus orientalis with three replications. the results showed that the amount of canopy interception...

Precipitation is the most fundamental input of water for terrestrial ecosystems. Most precipitation inputs are vertical, via rain, but can be horizontal, via wind-driven rain and snow, or, in some ecosystems such as tropical montane cloud forests (TMCFs), via fog interception. Fog interception can be particularly important in ecosystems where fog is frequently present and there are seasonal per...

In hydrological models, evaporation from interception is often disregarded, combined with transpiration, or taken as a fixed percentage of rainfall. In general interception is not considered to be a significant process in rainfallrunoff modelling. However, it appears that on average interception can amount to 20–50% of the precipitation. Therefore, knowledge about the process of interception is...

Vegetation can play a major role in the hydrologic ecosystem service tradeoffs resulting from land use change: by affecting the volume of rain water that reaches the ground surface, vegetation affects water supply. But because canopy interception of rainfall is affected in complex and competing ways by forest structure and ambient weather conditions, both of which vary at small and large scales...

This paper describes the state of Lawful Interception of the Internet and compares it with Lawful Interception of access networks. Lawful Interception is the process of secretly intercepting communications between parties of interest to Law Enforcement agencies. Internet interception is both more difficult and much more immature than access network interception. Refusal by the main standards bo...

This paper presents a computational model that uses a modified Genetic Algorithm (GA) approach, to provide more accurate results for mid-air targets interception. The proportional navigation laws that have been practiced for many years for target interception have been deployed in this research. A revised GA is formulated to determine the optimal interception point by modifying the heuristic cr...
