introduction tsunami is a series of water waves caused by the displacement of a large amount of water which is generated by underwater earthquake, volcano, landslide or other disturbances below water. the makran subduction zone (msz) is one of the regions that have potential to generate tsunami which also has been occurred in 1985 and is capable of another one. in msz, the coasts of chabahar ba...

A graph G is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge weighted tree T and two non-negative real numbers dmin and dmax such that each leaf lu of T corresponds to a vertex u ∈ V and there is an edge (u, v) ∈ E if and only if dmin ≤ dT (lu, lv) ≤ dmax where dT (lu, lv) is the sum of the weights of the edges on the unique path from lu to lv in T . In this paper we analyze...

A graph G = (V, E) is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists a tree T , a positive edge-weight function w on T , and two non-negative real numbers dmin and dmax, dmin ≤ dmax, such that V coincides with the set of leaves of T , and there is an edge (u, v) ∈ E if and only if dmin ≤ dT,w(u, v) ≤ dmax where dT,w(u, v) is the sum of the weights of the edges on the unique path fr...

Payment for ecosystem services programs are being implemented in a wide variety of settings, but whether and in what contexts such programs present ‘win–win’ scenarios that simultaneously improve human wellbeing and achieve conservation goals remains poorly understood. Based on semi-structured interviews with early program participants enrolling either collectivelyor individually-held land, we ...

extended abstract 1. introduction the investigation of land cover and land use changes has been important since ancient eras and these changes mainly occur in two ways: the first types of these changes take place by the means of natural factors such as erosion, tectonic forces and floods and the second types take place by human factors. in recent years in many parts of the world, human oriented...

The supposition that agricultural intensification results in land sparing for conservation has become central to policy formulations across the tropics. However, underlying assumptions remain uncertain and have been little explored in the context of conservation incentive schemes such as policies for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation, conservation, sustainable managem...

This paper describes the land use classification of multispectral digital aerial images, the removal of buildings from the digital surface model and the visualization of the textured digital surface model with reconstructed buildings. The proposed approach applies spectral classification techniques to multispectral digital aerial images with RGB and NIR channels. The results of the land use cla...

mixed land use includes various land uses which are adjacent to each other and linked together to accommodate either horizontal or vertical segments adjacent land and within a building to coexistence. recent urban planning theories, emphasizing on several principles that make the mix use development is one of these principles. mixed land use effects on travel demands and urban transportation ef...

A graph G = (V, E) is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists a tree T , a positive edge-weight function w on T , and two non-negative real numbers dmin and dmax, dmin ≤ dmax, such that V coincides with the set of leaves of T , and there is an edge (u, v) ∈ E if and only if dmin ≤ dT,w(u, v) ≤ dmax where dT,w(u, v) is the sum of the weights of the edges on the unique path fr...
