Steep Slopes: Part I. Simulated Rainfall Conditions
Steep slopes consisting of disturbed soil are very often found in construction, landfill, and surface mining situations. Although legislation and economics dictate that vegetative cover be established on these slopes as rapidly as possible, the occurrence of large rainfall events during critical periods of vegetation establishment can frequently cause extensive soil loss. Sediment generated fro...
متن کاملCluster Analysis of Typhoon Tracks. Part I: General Properties
A new probabilistic clustering technique, based on a regression mixture model, is used to describe tropical cyclone trajectories in the western North Pacific. Each component of the mixture model consists of a quadratic regression curve of cyclone position against time. The best track 1950–2002 data set is described by seven distinct clusters. These clusters are then analyzed in terms of genesis...
متن کاملRainfall-enhanced blooming in typhoon wakes
Strong phytoplankton blooming in tropical-cyclone (TC) wakes over the oligotrophic oceans potentially contributes to long-term changes in global biogeochemical cycles. Yet blooming has traditionally been discussed using anecdotal events and its biophysical mechanics remain poorly understood. Here we identify dominant blooming patterns using 16 years of ocean-color data in the wakes of 141 typho...
متن کاملInterpolation of Rainfall Data with Thin Plate Smoothing Splines - Part II: Analysis of Topographic Dependence
Thin plate smoothing splines incorporating varying degrees of topographic dependence were used to interpolate 100 daily rainfall values, with the degree of data smoothing determined by minimizing the generalised cross validation. Analyses were performed on the square roots of the rainfall values. Model calibration was made difficult by short range correlation and the small size of the data set....
متن کاملMelioidosis Outbreak after Typhoon, Southern Taiwan
From July through September 2005, shortly after a typhoon, 40 cases of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection (melioidosis) were identified in southern Taiwan. Two genotypes that had been present in 2000 were identified by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. Such a case cluster confirms that melioidosis is endemic to Taiwan.
