Environmental crisis and the consequent loss of natural resources are the main reasons which force managers to pursue methods to manage risks and solve environmental tensions. This study was conducted in Samad-Abad as a center of wind erosion located in the southern part of Sarakhs region, Islamic Republic of Iran, near the Turkmenistan border and the Tajan River. Following field investigations...
Trinidad has tar sand resources of about 2 billion barrels of oil on land in the Parrylands/Guapo and Brighton areas. With an oil price of over USD 25 per barrel, the commercial extraction of oil from Trinidad tar sands is viable, but it requires a careful study. The relatively small extent of this tar sand (about 10,000 acres and with depths varying from surface to less than 500 feet) and with...
Sediment fluxes in aquatic environments are crucially dependent on bedform dynamics. However, sediment-flux predictions rely almost completely on clean-sand studies, despite most environments being composed of mixtures of non-cohesive sands, physically cohesive muds and biologically cohesive extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) generated by microorganisms. EPS associated with surficial biof...
By many analyses, we shall soon be approaching 'peak oil' production — the time when annual output begins to stall in the face of ever-increasing demand. Oil companies are therefore increasing efforts to locate new sources and, in the face of the large-scale environmental problems caused by the failure of a deep-drilling operation in the Gulf of Mexico, the successful development of Canada's ta...
The rapid expansion of oil sands production in northern Alberta is under scrutiny worldwide due to concerns about its environmental, social, and economic impacts. Environmental concerns include climate change impacts from CO2 emissionsalongwithmore local environmental impacts such as dead birds, cancer clusters, and destruction of boreal forests.Within Canada, oil sands have become an important...
Booming” sand dunes have a remarkable capacity to produce sounds that are comparable with those from a stringed instrument. This phenomenon, in which sound is generated after an avalanching of sand along the slip face of a dune, has been known for centuries and occurs in at least 40 sites around the world. A spectral analysis of the sound shows a dominant frequency between 70 and 110 Hz, as wel...
Triboelectric charging is common in desert sandstorms and dust devils on Earth; however, it remains poorly understood. Here we show a charging mechanism of sands with the adsorbed water on micro-porous surface in wind-blown sand based on the fact that water content is universal but usually a minor component in most particle systems. The triboelectric charging could be resulted due to the differ...
Artificial neural networks are one of the modern methods of the production optimisation. An attempt to apply neural networks for controlling the quality of bentonite moulding sands is presented in this paper. This is the assessment method of sands suitability by means of detecting correlations between their individual parameters. This paper presents the next part of the study on usefulness of a...
