متن کاملWATER ABOVE THE MOUNTAIN FRONT – ASSESSING MOUNTAIN-BLOCK RECHARGE IN SEMIARID REGIONS By
Mountains provide as much as 90-100% of the freshwater to surrounding basins in arid and semiarid regions because of their distinctive and complex topography, and the consequent effects on precipitation (P) and evapotranspiration (ET). One of the primary objectives of this dissertation is to estimate mountain-block recharge (MBR), an important component of the mountain contribution to groundwat...
متن کاملElevation-dependent warming in mountain regions of the world
NATURE CLIMATE CHANGE | VOL 5 | MAY 2015 | www.nature.com/natureclimatechange It is well known that the rate of temperature change with increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is amplified at high latitudes, but there is growing evidence that the rate of warming is also amplified with elevation, such as in mountain environments.

متن کاملLactic Acid Microflora of Bulgarian Milk Products from Mountain Regions
This study aimed to isolate and characterize viable lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from the most popular in Bulgaria fermented milk products. Different samples from home-made cheeses, yoghurt and katak, from ecological regions of Stara Planina, Rila and Rodopi mountains were collected. A total of 25 LAB cultures (coci and rods) were isolated and polyphasic taxonomic characterization was performed. ...
متن کاملCultural ecosystem services of mountain regions: Modelling the aesthetic value
Mountain regions meet an increasing demand for pleasant landscapes, offering many cultural ecosystem services to both their residents and tourists. As a result of global change, land managers and policy makers are faced with changes to this landscape and need efficient evaluation techniques to assess cultural ecosystem services. This study provides a spatially explicit modelling approach to est...
