the research used the satellite image (landsat 7 etm ) within the thermal infrared sixth band (tir6) and geographic information system (gis) to determine the air pollution and its relationship with the land cover (lc) and land use (lu) of baghdad city. concentration of total suspended particles (tsp), lead (pb), carbon oxides (co, co2), and sulphur dioxide (so2) were obtained from 22 ground mea...

A regional-level and dimensionless analysis for designing a domestic rainwater harvesting system (DRWHS) was developed. To consider various combinations of water demand, storage capacity, effective roof area, and rainfall in DRWHS design, two dimensionless ratios were used, namely, demand fraction and storage fraction, along with a relationship between the two ratios. Firstly, Northern Taiwan w...

some cerasus sub-genus wild species that are used as rootstocks in sour and sweet cherry propagation can also be employed in breeding programs. the aim of this study was to clearly evaluate some characteristics of subgenus cerasus genotypes to be used in the future cherries' breeding programs. in order to evaluate some morphological characteristics of the vegetative parts as well as seeds ...

Continuous GPS networks, typically with a station spacing of about 30km, are still not dense enough to accurately characteristise the dynamics of active faults. Interpolation of these GPS results can improve our understanding of active faults and hence promote related studies. Moreover, even when the networks are densified in order to recover the signature of active faults, the station configur...

The changes in daily precipitation totals in Greece, during the 45-year period (1957–2001) are examined. The precipitation datasets concern daily totals recorded at 21 surface meteorological stations of the Hellenic National Meteorological Service, which are uniformly distributed over the Greek region. First and foremost, the application of Factor Analysis resulted in grouping the meteorologica...

Preferentially (110)-oriented BaTiO 3 (BTO) thin films can be achieved by PLD on Y Fe 5 O 12 (YIG)(100) or Gd Ga (GGG)(100) substrates, while other substrate orientations polycrystalline are observed.

The research used the satellite image (Landsat 7 ETM ) within the thermal infrared sixth band (TIR6) and geographic information system (GIS) to determine the air pollution and its relationship with the land cover (LC) and land use (LU) of Baghdad city. Concentration of total suspended particles (TSP), lead (Pb), carbon oxides (CO, CO2), and sulphur dioxide (SO2) were obtained from 22 ground mea...
