Papers published in Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Discussions are under open-access review for the journal Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Abstract This paper presents an attempt of simulating daily fluctuations of river discharge at global scale. Total Runoff Integrating Pathways (TRIP) is a global river routing model which can help to isolate the river basins, inter-basin transport ...

There is a familiar dichotomy between mind and brain, whereas the concepts of mind and brain, whereas the concepts of 'mind' and 'consciousness' often are 'mind' and 'consciousness' often are conflated: I wish to argue here that both conflated: I wish to argue here that both suppositions are wrong. suppositions are wrong. First, let us consider the terms 'mind' First, let us consider the terms ...

Planning a trip to a particular destination can be a time consuming and daunting task. There is a wide range of information sources available, each claiming to present the best deals and the most complete tourist information. This information as well as the current weather, budget constraints, time constraints, and personal preferences all need to be taken into account when planning the perfect...

The wire drawing process is extensively used in manufacturing components such as rivet, screw, welding wire, etc. In this work, an analytical of the wire drawing process has been considered for two-stage operation. ABAQUS commercial Finite Element code has been used to obtained the drawing force. Then, The analytical and experimental results been compared. The results show a good agreement for...

  Objective: Corrosion resistance is among the most important properties of metal alloys used in the oral cavity. Consumption of acidic foods reduces the salivary pH and intensifies the corrosion of brackets and orthodontic wires. This study aimed to compare electro galvanic corrosion of different orthodontic brackets and wires and determine the amount of ions released into acidic artifici...

in this paper, scattering of a plane and monochromatic electromagnetic wave from a nano-wire is simulated using surface integral equations. first, integral equationsgoverning unknown fields on the surface is obtained based on stratton-cho surface integral equations. then, the interaction of the wave with a non-plasmonic as well as a palsmonic nano-wire is considered. it is shown that in scatter...

An ultrafine grain surface layer with average crystallite size of 28 nm was produced on annealed mild steel through a wire brushing process. The effects of grain size reduction on the inhibition performance of sodium phosphate were investigated using polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The crystal grain size of wire brushed surface was analyzed by X-ray d...

Transforming growth factor beta receptor II interacting protein 1 (TRIP-1), a predominantly intracellular protein is localized in the ECM of bone. TRIP-1 lacks a signal peptide, therefore, in this study, we provide evidence that intracellular TRIP-1 can be packaged and exported to the ECM via exosomes. Overexpression of TRIP-1 in MC3T3-E1 cells resulted in increased matrix mineralization during...

The main goal of this study was to obtain insight about the factors that influence students' ability to learn during a field trip, in order to improve the planning and execution of learning field trips. The study was conducted in the context of a 1-day geological field trip for high school students in Israel. Three domains were tested by observations and questionnaires: (1) the nature of the le...

the purpose of the study was to identify and prioritize the educational needs and support needed by agricultural extension agents in isfahan, islamic republic of iran. the target population for the study consisted of s3 agricultural extension agents in isfahan province. census population were used therefore, sampling procedures were not utilized and genera i izability of the results was lim...
