The study on the tree growth for four species groups of commercial timber in Koh Kong province, Cambodia’s tropical rainforest is described. The simulation for these four groups had been successfully developed in the 5-year interval through year-60. Data were obtained from twenty permanent sample plots in the duration of thirteen years. The aim for this study was to develop stand table simulati...

In this paper satellite wave propagation at Ku and Ka band is considered. The design and simulation of a typical satellite beacon receiver at Ka band is designed and simulated for the future works. Also rain attenuation prediction at Ku band using satellite signal beacon measurement and simulations for Iran Telecommunication Research Center (ITRC) are presented. The measurement setup consists o...

Spatial multifractals are statistically homogeneous random fields. While being useful to model geophysical fields exhibiting a high degree of variability and discontinuity and including rainfall, they ignore the spatial trends embedded in the variability that are evident from large temporal aggregation of spatial fields. The modelling of rain fields using multifractals causes the information re...

[1] Water-level increase after rainfall is usually indicative of rainfall recharge to groundwater. This, however, may not be true if the Lisse effect occurs. This effect represents the water-level increase in a well driven by airflow induced by an advancing wetting front during highly intensive rains. The rainwater, which may behave like a lowpermeability lid, seals the ground surface so that t...

In this paper, we propose the pre-equalization technique for the uplink burst transmission under the intersymbol interference (ISI) channel and the rain attenuation channel existed in the Ka-Band (20~30GHz) of the B-WLL system. We compare the mean-square-error (MSE) convergence properties of standard leastmean-square (SLMS) and discrete cosine transform (DCT)-based transform-domain least-mean-s...

Wireless communication in the millimetre frequency bands is subject to severe atmospheric impairment caused by rain and scintillation, which may occasionally cause deep fades and thus needs to be mitigated by an efficient countermeasure such as adaptive coding and modulation (ACM). In this paper we focus on stratospheric communication and propose appropriate rain and scintillation fading channe...

Precipitation exhibits significant spatial variability at scales much smaller than the typical size of climate model grid cells. Neglecting such subgrid-scale variability in climate models causes unrealistic representation of land–atmosphere flux exchanges. It is especially problematic over densely vegetated land. This paper addresses this issue by incorporating satellite-based precipitation ob...

Dissolved phosphorus (P) in runoff from surface-applied fertilizers can be relatively great, but commonly used, field or watershed-scale computer models often do not simulate direct transfer of fertilizer P to runoff. Using data from our own simulated rainfall experiments and published runoff studies, we developed a simplemodel to predict fertilizer P release during rain and the concentration o...
