The Andean Biotic Index (ABI): revised tolerance to pollution values for macroinvertebrate families and index performance evaluation.
Score-based biotic indices are widely used to evaluate the water quality of streams and rivers. Few adaptations of these indices have been done for South America because there is a lack of knowledge on macroinvertebrate taxonomy, distribution and tolerance to pollution in the region. Several areas in the Andes are densely populated and there is need for methods to assess the impact of increasin...
متن کاملassessment of the park- ang damage index for performance levels of rc moment resisting frames
چکیده هدف اصلی از طراحی لرزه ای تامین ایمنی جانی در هنگام وقوع زلزله و تعمیر پذیر بودن سازه خسارت دیده، پس از وقوع زلزله است. تجربه زلزله های اخیر نشان داده است که ساختمان های طراحی شده با آیین نامه های مبتنی بر نیرو از نظر محدود نمودن خسارت وارده بر سازه دقت لازم را ندارند. این امر سبب پیدایش نسل جدید آیین نامه های مبتنی بر عملکرد شده است. در این آیین نامه ها بر اساس تغییرشکل های غیرارتجاعی ...
15 صفحه اولA Multimetric Benthic Macroinvertebrate Index for the Assessment of Stream Biotic Integrity in Korea
At a time when anthropogenic activities are increasingly disturbing the overall ecological integrity of freshwater ecosystems, monitoring of biological communities is central to assessing the health and function of streams. This study aimed to use a large nation-wide database to develop a multimetric index (the Korean Benthic macroinvertebrate Index of Biological Integrity—KB-IBI) applica...
متن کاملA comparative study for air pollution tolerance index of some terrestrial plant species
Although water and land pollution are very dangerous, air pollution has its own peculiarities due to its transboundary dispersion of pollutants over the entire world. In any well planned urban set up, industrial pollution takes a back seat and vehicular emissions take precedence as the major cause of urban air pollution. In the present study, Air pollution tolerance index was calculated for var...
متن کاملEccentric Connectivity Index: Extremal Graphs and Values
Eccentric connectivity index has been found to have a low degeneracy and hence a significant potential of predicting biological activity of certain classes of chemical compounds. We present here explicit formulas for eccentric connectivity index of various families of graphs. We also show that the eccentric connectivity index grows at most polynomially with the number of vertices and determine ...
