Several studies have projected increases in drought severity, extent and duration in many parts of the world under climate change. We examine sources of uncertainty arising from the methodological choices for the assessment of future drought risk in the continental US (CONUS). One such uncertainty is in the climate models' expression of evaporative demand (E0), which is not a direct climate mod...

the goal of this study was to estimate the sensitivity of reference evapotranspiration (et0) to changes in meteorological parameters in the caspian region. long-term meteorological data (1961-2008) were obtained from three synoptic meteorological stations. the region was primarily classified into three climatic zones, based on de martonne climate classification. the penman–monteith equation was...

r a 200 .008 ress: Sch unl.edu Summary A novel approach has been found to estimate the equilibrium surface temperature (Te) of wet environment evaporation (Ew) on a daily basis. Employing this temperature in the Priestley–Taylor equation as well as in the calculation of the slope of the saturation vapor pressure curve with pan measurements improved the accuracy of longterm mean evaporation (E) ...

A escassez de recursos hídricos é o fator mais limitante da produção agrícola no município Estreito, MA. irregularidade na distribuição das chuvas durante ano, característica regiões tropicais, faz com que a atividade em assim como outras cidades do estado Maranhão reduzam época seca. Diante desse cenário, busca por meios visem melhorar eficiência irrigação para gerenciamento sustentável água s...

The problem of programming computers to produce natural language explanations and other texts on demand is an active research area in artificial intelligence. In the past, research systems designed for this purpose have been limited by the weakness of their linguistic bases, especially their grammars, and their techniques often cannot be transferred to new knowledge domains. A new text generati...

The development of an integrated knowledgebased machine-aided translation system based on Systemic Linguistics. Parts of the system are to function as modules to be incorporated in the MAT system being codeveloped with CMU and CRL. Our work involves the enhancement of Penman's existing parsing technology to match the level of the language generation system; the development of ancillary knowledg...
