These latter were also residential burials, interred within the landed domain of social units. Although both “inside” and “outside” burials drew on claims of ancestral continuity, it is important to explore the differences they ent...

for many years many scholars made comments about zaynab’s burial place and each tried to approve or disapprove one of the places, until with the evidences that all of them are at hand for analysis, research and criticism, concluded to a definite result, but this is still in ambiguity and uncertainty. it is in author’s mind for many years that because of different views and disagreements, where ...

This work supports mine burial prediction by the US Navy by transitioning the capabilities provided by state-of-the-art, high-resolution process models to Naval operations. These models are synthesized by a statistical prediction tool (the Mine Burial Expert System—MBESM), which relates uncertainty in model input to uncertainty in the predicted mine burial. This work will produce more detailed ...

To mitigate global climate change, a portfolio of strategies will be needed to keep the atmospheric CO2 concentration below a dangerous level. Here a carbon sequestration strategy is proposed in which certain dead or live trees are harvested via collection or selective cutting, then buried in trenches or stowed away in above-ground shelters. The largely anaerobic condition under a sufficiently ...

Among many disposal options of animal carcasses due to animal diseases including foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and avian influenza (AI), on-farm burial has been the most frequently used one in Korea. Animal carcasses generate contaminants such as ammonium-N and chloride. This study aimed at testing biochar (BC) as a permeable reactive barrier (PRB) material in combination with fast growing tree ...
