Abstract Based on the seismic source model in Fifth Generation Seismic Ground Motion Parameters Zonation Map of China (FGSGMPZMC), a new fault model, zonation risk areas (SRAs), and estimation seismicity rates for 2021–2030, this study constructed time-dependent China’s mainland, used probabilistic hazard analysis method to calculate by selecting ground motion models (GMMs) suitable sources Chi...

This paper presents a new approach of landslides zonation hazard studies, based on an integrated study of structural data along with geomorphological and external factors, in a hilly regions of Brazil, covered by a tropical humid rain-forest, called Serra do Mar. The Serra do Mar consists of a hilly region along the east coast of Brazil, with high slopes and many geological structures in a gnei...

When estimating hydraulic transmissivity the question of parameterization is of great importance. The transmissivity is assumed to be a piecewise constant space dependent function and the unknowns are both the transmissivity values and the zonation, the partition of the domain whose parts correspond to the zones where the transmissivity is constant. Refinement and coarsening indicators, which a...

The current study presents a detailed assessment of risk zones related to karst collapse in Wuhan by analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and logistic regression (LR) models. results showed that the LR model was more accurate with an area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve 0.911 compared 0.812 derived from AHP model. Both models performed well identifying high-risk only 3% discre...

In an attempt to elucidate the mechanism(s) through which the functional adrenal cortex is established, we analyzed immunohistochemically the expression of various markers for the adrenocortical zones, i.e. the zona glomerulosa (zG), the zona fasciculata (zF), and the zona reticularis (zR), as well as markers for the medulla, and further examined the distribution and behavior of DNA-synthesizin...
