Iran is one of the world's arid regions and exposed to dust particles in the air. This is important in spatial and temporal terms as well as the affects human health. In this paper a day when due to the amount of dust particles visibility reduces to 5,000 m is considered the dusty day. In the spatial and temporal analysis of dusty days 38 synoptic stations were studied. In order to conduct data...

The spread of communicable diseases through a population is an intrinsic spatial and temporal process. This paper presents an individual-based analytical framework for modeling the spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the disease transmission. The framework specifies a network model structure and six associated parameters. These parameters describe the properties of nodes, the properties of li...

the present study aimed to monitor the land use change in the shazand watershed with different development policies using land use net changes and exchanges in land change modeller (lcm) forperiod of1973to2014and in sub-watersheds scale. in the study period, rangeland area reduced about 380 km2 and rainfed and irrigation farm lands increased successively 100 and 150 km2 in the first and the sec...

Episodic memory provides information about the "when" of events as well as "what" and "where" they happened. Using functional imaging, we investigated the domain specificity of retrieval-related processes following encoding of complex, naturalistic events. Subjects watched a 42-min TV episode, and 24h later, made discriminative choices of scenes from the clip during fMRI. Subjects were presente...

We developed a naturalistic behavioral task to investigate the influence of spatial and temporal expectations on attentional orienting to moving targets. In this task, the movement of an object before its disappearance under an occluding barrier generated expectations concerning the location and/or time of its reappearance. Four different trial types were intermixed, each inducing a different s...

abstract: identification of spatial-temporal anomalies sea level pressure in part of northern hemisphere was the main aim in this research. for this purpose six hourly data used from the to eastern longitude and to northern latitude. in this location, there are 825 pixels to geographical degree. therefore, database extent created. in this matrix, 825 are number of the pixels at that location an...

This paper extends a mereotopological theory of spatiotemporal reasoning to vague ”egg-yolk” regions. In this extension, the egg and its yolk are allowed to move and change over time. We present a classification of motion classes for vague regions as well as composition tables for reasoning about moving vague regions. We also discuss the formation of scrambled eggs when it becomes impossible to...

Advances in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have led to the enormous recent burgeoning of spatial-temporal databases and associated statistical modeling. Here we depart from the rather rich literature in space-time modeling by considering the setting where space is discrete (e.g., aggregated data over regions), but time is continuous. Our major objective in this application is to carry o...
