in recent decades, neyshabour basin as a semi-arid climate has faced with dramatic increasing of groundwater withdrawal. so, water demand management is important in this basin. in this study, the effects of evapotranspiration and rainfall on groundwater fluctuations have been considered with 22 rain gage and evaporation gage station data during 1973-2006. the average amount of rainfall and evap...

Climate change has become a global issue that is taking toll on the agricultural sector. This study focused climate in Solapur area of Maharashtra State, India. It necessary to investigate local meteorological characteristics using various statistical techniques verify or regulate such situation.

In this paper two nonparametric tests for monotonic trend detection are compared with respect to their power and accuracy. The importance of comparing powers at equal empirical signiicance levels rather than nominal levels, is stressed. Therefore, an appropriate graphical method is presented. The eeect of the sampling frequency is also assessed using a trajectory representation that visualizes ...

Groundwater, a special hydrological variable and freshwater resource is completely inter-reliant with hydro-metorological, topographic, land use and hydro-geological components of hydrologic cycle. Trend of hydrologic componentsfor future prediction is attempted to confer in this study using Man-Kendall test, linear regression and geometric progression analysis on recorded data collected from r...

Discovering promising research themes in a scientific domain by evaluating semantic information extracted from bibliometric databases represents challenging task for Natural Language Processing (NLP). While existing NLP methods generally characterize the topics using unique key terms, we take step further more accurately modeling as finite sets of terms. The proposed approach involves two stage...
