The geologic origin of the ancient, phyllosilicate-bearing bedrock at Oxia Planum, Mars, ExoMars rover landing site, is unknown. phyllosilicates record ancient aqueous processes, but processes that formed host remain elusive. Here, we use high-resolution orbital and topographic datasets from HiRISE, CaSSIS CTX instruments to investigate characterize fluvial sinuous ridges (FSRs), found across P...

Here we lay out the details of how we generate significance clusters and alluvial diagrams for mapping change in networks. Because this method assesses how much confidence we should have in the clustering of a network, we can detect, highlight, and simplify the significant structural changes that occur over time or between states in large networks, for example, citation networks, traffic networ...

In the Mediterranean area, several alluvial coastal plains, developed after Holocene transgression, are affected by subsidence. The Volturno alluvial-coastal plain, along eastern Tyrrhenian Sea (southern Italy) is characterized subsidence rates determined through InSAR data analysis and ranging between 0 <?20 mm/year in an area of about 750 kmq across River. Inside this pattern shows sites w...

This report describes the results of a comprehensive surficial geologic mapping effort undertaken to support the development of a series of relative flood hazard maps of the Ivanpah Valley area, Clark County, Nevada. The study area spans approximately 1030 km2 (398 mi2) and is defined by all of three and part of one internally drained basins between Las Vegas and Primm, Nevada. The proximity of...

The article describes the chemical composition of newly irrigated, developed sandy-desert, old-irrigated alluvial-meadow, newly-irrigated gray-brown-meadow, gray-earth-meadow soils, common in lower and middle reaches Zarafshan River, decrease amount nutrients soil under influence anthropogenic factors. In arable subarable layers old irrigated meadow-alluvial humus is 0.859-0.971% 0.715-0.894%, ...

Water shortage is a serious constraint on crop production on the North China Plain (NCP), where cropland is mainly irrigated by pumping groundwater from alluvial aquifers. To develop a sustainable ground water and irrigation management strategy, we developed a three-layer soil water balance model which is easy to use, robust, but physically based simulation tool. The model successfully simulate...

The distribution and abundance of non-human primates in Bangladesh is presented. Roadside and forest surveys were conducted throughout the alluvial floodplains and hill regions ofSylhet, Chittagong, and Cox's Bazar. In forests, walking and vehicle transects were used to census primates. The ecology and status of major habitat types are discussed. Forest primate populations are evaluated accordi...

at the Government General Hospital, Madras. The patients are from all castes living in the city of Madras, and there are also a few cases that have come from Mambalam, a suburb situated four miles away to the south of the city on the South Indian Railway. Mambalam is built on the site of a tank which has been recently drained. It, therefore, has a loose alluvial soil and a damp atmosphere. It h...
