Measurement of the Retreat of Qori Kalis Glacier in the Tropical Andes of Peru
The extent and volume of the largest outlet glacier from the Quelccaya Ice Cap (14°S, 71°W, 5200 m a.s.l.) has been measured four times between 1963 and 1991, once by aerial and three times by terrestrial photogrammetry. Drastic and accelerating retreat of the terminus and decrease of ice volume have been documented. The rate of retreat was nearly three times as fast between 1983 and 1991 as be...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
third world intellectuals in v. s. naipaul’s fiction: the mimic men, a bend in the river, magic seeds
this thesis attempts to study the representations of the third-world intellectuals in three fictional works by the british-educated trinidadian nobel-winner v. s. naipaul: the mimic men, a bend in the river, and magic seeds. the first one recounts the story of ralph singh’s sense of alienation, his experiences as a colonial politician, and his struggle to give order to his disorderly world thro...
15 صفحه اولActive dispersal by wild Triatoma infestans in the Bolivian Andes.
Triatoma infestans is the main vector of Chagas disease and target of control programmes in the Southern Cone countries. So far Bolivia is the only country where true T. infestans wild foci are documented. The dispersal ability for wild T. infestans was studied at microgeographical scale in Bolivian Andes, to assess the possibility for wild populations to actively recolonize insecticide-treated...
متن کاملCurrent state of glaciers in the tropical Andes: a multi-century perspective on glacier evolution and climate change
The aim of this paper is to provide the community with a comprehensive overview of the studies of glaciers in the tropical Andes conducted in recent decades leading to the current status of the glaciers in the context of climate change. In terms of changes in surface area and length, we show that the glacier retreat in the tropical Andes over the last three decades is unprecedented since the ma...
