The realism of extratropical cyclones, fronts, jet streams, and the tropopause in the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) general circulation model (GCM), implemented in assimilation and simulation modes, is evaluated from climatological and case-study perspectives using the GEOS-1 reanalysis climatology and applicable conceptual models as benchmarks for comparison. The latitude–longitude gri...

1. introduction considering the importance of lake urmia in the weather of northwest of iran, the present study, using dynamic modelling and simulation, investigates the consequences of the drying up of lake urmia on the climate parameter of downfall. 2. study area lake urima, considered the biggest pond in western asia, with a surface area of 5 thousand and 822 square kilometers, is the second...

Introduction:MAMMI is a dedicated PET based on high resolution detectors placed close to the breast. In this study, we presented a GATE model for the simulation of MAMMI scanner and model its performance of the MAMMI based on an adaptation of the NU 4-2008 NEMA standard.  Methods:A detailed of geometry MAMMI system that uses scintillation crystals coupled...

This paper presents a new model of equivalent modulus derived from the Repeated Load CBR (RL-CBR) test without strain gauge. This model is an updated version of Araya et al. model (2011), the update consists of using the vertical strain as weighting factor instead of vertical displacement in the mean vertical and horizontal stresses calculation. The accuracy of equivalent modulus was improved b...

South-eastern Australia covers approximately 14% of Australia land mass, and is very important for Australia’s community and economy. In this work, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) regional model was run to simulate the severe drought that happened and then (partially) recovered in this region from 2000 through 2008. The model used the following physics schemes: WRF Single Moment 5-cl...

land surface parameterization schemes are one of the most important components in gcm and nwp models. these schemes calculate the exchanges of momentum, mass and energy between land surface and the atmosphere. runoff is one of the important components in the water cycle of the land surface scheme whose parameterization is difficult because of complexity in the processes governing the runoff gen...

Three-dimensional large-eddy simulations of a smoke cloud beneath a strong inversion are used to investigate how grid resolution aaects simulated entrainment rate. These simulations are generalizations of a 1995 GCSS (GEWEX Cloud System Studies) smoke cloud model intercomparison (MacVean et al. 1997). Radiative cooling at the top of the smoke cloud induces convection in the smoke cloud in a man...

in this research, the appropriateness of drainmod-n model was evaluated for the simulation of nitrate transport with subsurface drainage in paddy fields. during a canola growing season from november 2011 to april 2012, the nitrate concentration of drainage water and soil saturation extracts of two depths of 30 and 60 cm was measured in consolidated paddy fields of sari agricultural sciences and...
