Land surface schemes (LSSs) in Earth System Models simulate how vegetation regulates land-atmosphere fluxes of heat, water, carbon, and momentum. Despite advances the spatial resolution regional climate modeling, significant land cover changes occured at sub-grid scale still not properly treated. Here, we investigate response evapotranspiration, representing heat to deforestation Southeast Asia...

The account of the sacrifice performed by Noah on leaving ark (Gen. 8.20-1) is certainly one most enigmatic moments in first chapters Genesis. How are we to understand this sacrifice, which God does not command, but immediately precedes a radical transformation discourse that addresses Noah, might seem return his very address Adam, reality introduces between man and animals weapon domination te...

In this article we derive implications about social positions from a formal theory of social influence. The formal theory describes how, in a group of actors with heterogeneous initial opinions, a network of interpersonal influences enters into the formation of actors' settled opinions. We derive the following conclusions about a special form of structural equivalence. If actors are structurall...

In this study, the hydrological system of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF-Hydro) is applied to simulate streamflow at Kaidu River Basin, which vital ecological in lower reaches Tarim Northwest China. The offline WRF-Hydro coupled with Noah multi-parameterization land surface (Noah-MP) forced by China Meteorological Forcing Dataset (CMFD), grid spacing routing modules being 250 m. A ...

This article analyses Noah’s ark and the flood events from sacred texts traditions of Judaism Islam in an integrative manner. After juxtaposing Flood Narrative Tanakh Noahic sūrahs Qur’an, key cognate lexemes are examined their ideological trajectories traced. It is argued, particularly, that, addition to evident message salvation traditions, there a discernible motif space both religions, spec...

1 Abstract This paper describes some extensions to the reductionist planning paradigm typified by Sacerdoti's NOAH program. Certain inadequacies of the partial ordering scheme used in NOAH are pointed out and a new architecture is detailed which circumvents these problems. An example from the semi-automated factory domain is used to illustrate features of the new planner. Techniques for elimina...
