This study provides an example of fault structure delineation using both geophysical measurements and soil-gas surveys. Seismic refraction and electrical resistivity tomography investigations were performed in com-bination with Direct Push (DP) soil gas concentration measurements, with the main objective being the char-acterization of an assumed permeable fault structure which is covered by sed...

Abstract The East African margin between the Somali Basin in north and Natal south formed as a result of Jurassic/Cretaceous dispersal Gondwana. While initial movements West Gondwana left (oblique) rifted margins behind, subsequent southward drift from 157 Ma onwards created major shear zone, Davie Fracture Zone (DFZ), along Africa. To document structural variability DFZ, several deep seismic l...

the main goal of the present study is to identify characteristics of the inter-station horizontal magnetic responses and the vertical magnetic data, as two types of magnetotelluric transfer functions, in the modeling procedure. through consideration of model responses and two-dimensional inversion of synthetic data, sensitivity of the data components in detecting different geophysical structure...

we use high-resolution electrical resistivity imaging to delineate the geometry of the landslide and discontinuity surface between slide mass and bedrock in roudbar region, ghazvin-rasht-anzali railway (the tunnel no. 2 at km. 108+825). the roudbar region characterized by high geological hazard and shows a complete panorama of mass movements. in this area, different landslide types predisposed ...

Protein inference, the identification of the protein set that is the origin of a given peptide profile, is a fundamental challenge in proteomics. We present DeepPep, a deep-convolutional neural network framework that predicts the protein set from a proteomics mixture, given the sequence universe of possible proteins and a target peptide profile. In its core, DeepPep quantifies the change in pro...

BACKGROUND Reliable markers and methods to predict risk for thrombosis are essential to clinical management. OBJECTIVE Using an integrated approach that defines an individual's comprehensive coagulation phenotype might prove valuable in identifying individuals at risk for experiencing a thrombotic event. METHODS Using a numerical simulation model, we generated tissue factor (TF) initiated t...

The existence of partial melt is frequently invoked to explain geophysical anomalies such as low seismic wave velocity and high electrical conductivity. I review various experimental and theoretical studies to evaluate the plausibility of this explanation. In order for a partial melt model to work, not only the presence of melt, but also the presence of appropriate amount of melt needs to be ex...
