background & aims: mistyping either a donor or a recipient can lead to transfusion with abo incompatible blood which results in severe intravascular hemolysis and may even result in the death of the recipient. abo phenotype is one of the essential tests in immunohematology. eighty percent of blood group a and ab persons are subtype a1 and a1b, respectively. the other 20% of these blood groups a...

Extended Abstract The study La Economía del Cambio Climático en Chile (Economy of Climate Change in Chile) (CEPAL, 2009) shows the impacts of Climate Change in Chile using the results from the GCM model HadCM3, with two GHG scenarios (A2 and B2). As projected in these scenarios, for the near future period it is expected a raise in temperature in Central and South Chile in the order of 1-2°C and...

Background: Changes in temperature and precipitation pattern seriously affect the amount of river runoff coming into Dam Lake. These changes could influence the operating conditions of reservoir systems such as Jor hydropower reservoir system (Malaysia) with the total capacity of 150 MW. So, it is necessary to analyze the effect of changes in weather parameters on the river runoff and consequen...

Climate change is one of the most important challenges which has effect on river runoff. Warmer climatic conditions have intensified the water cycle, rainfall changes, runoff time and amount. There were several studies with different result on this subject all over the world. Due to the importance of karoun zone and lack of studies, the researcher tried to study the effects of this phenomenon o...

The paradigm of integrated water resources management requires coupled analysis of hydrology and water resources in a river basin. Population growth and uncertainties due to climate change make historic data not a reliable source of information for future planning of water resources, hence necessitating climate and landuse change impact studies. This work presents an integrated modeling approac...
