different methods exist for the zonation of oil reservoirs based on petrophysical data and well logs. among them are: permeability-porosity cross polt, pickett and soder and gill methods. in this study a statistical zonation technique has been used for the marun and pazanan oil reservoirs in iran based on effective porosity, density, sonic, neutron and resistivity data. petrophysical interpreta...

This study performs district and local administrative level multi-hazard zonation of Nepal. As multiple natural hazards are frequent, their losses enormous, maps can provide important insights before the occurrence so that effective countermeasures preparedness efforts be designed implemented. To this end, weightage-based Nepal is performed considering 27,482 independent hazard events. We consi...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plant species composition in wetlands and on lakeshores often shows dramatic zonation, which is frequently ascribed to differences in flooding tolerance. This study compared the growth responses to water depth of three species (Phormium tenax, Carex secta and Typha orientalis) differing in depth preferences in wetlands, using non-linear and quantile regression analyses to es...

The extended Kalman filter (EKF) has long been recognized as a powerful, yet computationally intensive, methodology for stochastic parameter estimation. Three improvements to traditional algorithms are presented and applied to heterogeneous transmissivity estimation. First, the costly EKF covariance updates are replaced by more efficient approximations. Second, the zonation structure of the dis...

flood is considered as a major threat among natural disasters in the world. this case becomes more important and has a higher risk in urban areas due to the existence of important uses. therefore, to reduce damages resulted from flood, this phenomenon must be managed and planned using structural and non-structural approaches. considering the development in iran has been carried out in high risk...

this paper is devoted to compiling a site geology map for town of amiriyeh, from seismic macro-zonation point of view using geophysical methods of shallow seismic, down-hole seismic and resistivity surveys. in this map site geology has been classified based on shear wave velocity, according to the criteria for site geology classification offered in the iranian code of practice for seismic resis...

In this chapter several approaches towards zonation and continuity of biocommunities in streams are analyzed. In older literature, rivers were described in well defined stretches from source to mouth. The biocommunities were described as entities in those stretches. Later, American scientists claimed that a river is a continuum with gradually changing conditions and henceforth gradually changin...
