introduction activated sludge process is one of the most common methods used in wastewater treatment plants. regarding the large volume of sludge obtained from such biological wastewater treatment processes and considerable costs of its treatment and disposal, extensive research has been and is being done on novel effective methods of sludge stabilization. in previous investigations research gr...

Information about the internal structure of rock glaciers is needed to understand their reaction to ongoing climate warming. Three different geophysical techniques—shallow seismic refraction, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity tomography—were used to develop a detailed subsurface model of the Green Lake 5 rock glacier in the Colorado Front Range, USA. Below a thin zone of...

Objective: To compare the haemodynamic effects of the induction agents ketamine, etomidate and sevoflurane using the model of electrical velocimetry based cardiac output monitoring in paediatric cardiac surgical patients. Design: Prospective randomized study. Setting: Tertiary care hospital. Participants: 60 children < 2 years age undergoing cardiac surgery. Interventions: The patients were ran...

the electrical conductivity of the earth is its physical parameter, which can be studied in global scales. the investigations of the earth&apos;s electrical conductivity are based on geomagnetic field variations. time variations of the geomagnetic field consist of long-term and short-term (transient) variations. external sources induce electric currents into the earth. the induced electric curr...
