[1] October mean total column ozone data from four Antarctic stations form the basis for understanding the evolution of the ozone hole since 1960. While these stations show similar emergence of the ozone hole from 1960 to 1980, the records are divergent in the last two decades. The effects of long‐term changes in vortex shape and location are considered by gridding the measurements by equivalen...

in order to further understand the emergence and germination of sugar beet monogerm cultivars under moisture stress, the current study was carried out at three stages. at the first stage, the quality of germination of three monogerm cultivars (rizofort, rasoul and zarghan) were studied under five moisture stress levels (0, -2, -4, -6 and -8 bars) in germinator at 15°c by between-paper method. a...

The objective of Air Traffic Flow Management is to maintain safe and efficient use of airspace and airports by regulating the flow of traffic. In this paper, we introduce a single-valued metric for post-operatively rating the performance of achieved traffic flow against targeted traffic flow. We provide variations on the metric, one of which factors out stochastic conditions upon which a plan i...
