daily weather information is currently available for about 40000 stations across the world. but, distribution of these stations is relatively uneven in some parts of the world. moreover, there are often large amounts of missing values (schuol and abbaspour, 2007:301). using generated data can help to fill missing or even to correct erroneously measured data (fodor et al., 2010: 91). lars-wg is ...

the purpose of this descriptive-correlation study was to investigate effective factors on rural people’s non-participation of mahabad’s dam catchment in watershed management projects. the research instrument was structural questionnaire with close-ended questions, which its validity confirmed by panel of academic staff and reliability of questionnaire was confirmed. the target population of thi...

Watershed nutrient management is essential in minimizing the eutrophication rate of reservoirs. A shortcoming in nutrient management of watershed-reservoir systems has been the lack of successful linking of watershed and water body models to evaluate impact of watershed management options on reservoir water quality. The objectives of this research were to 1) calibrate and validate a Soil and Wa...

where is the problem? health scientists are constantly trying to support people by diagnosing, managing the diseases, and improving health in all possible dimensions. attention has been drawn to all aspects of health including biological, psychological, social and spiritual. the problem may lay in behavior, clinical issues, organ cites, genome and epigenome. thus it falls on us, the medical soc...

Using the parameters associated with best-fit simulation (i.e., highest objective function value) to represent a calibrated hydrological model is inadequate. The reason that models best value usually not significantly different from next or values after that. This non-uniqueness of causes problem because solution's are often set parameters. Therefore, only using as model's sole interpret waters...

Integrated Environmental Modeling (IEM) organizes multidisciplinary knowledge that explains and predicts environmental-system response to stressors. A Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) is an approach integrating a range of disparate data (fate/transport, exposure, and human health effects relationships) to characterize potential health impacts/risks from exposure to pathogenic micro...

This research paper explores the themes of identity, embodiment, and difference. Drawing from personal experiences philosophical insights, author delves into complexities desire, sexual orientation, suppressed gender identities. The works Jean Genet are examined for their subversive nature portrayal trans individuals. also advocates practice smuggling radical ideas academia, challenging rigid s...

in many flood control projects, watershed management and water resources development, calculation of the river flow discharge is of the paramount importance which requires a comprehensive hydrological modeling of the region of interest. in this respect, lack of the existence of hydrometric and meteorology measuring stations in most of watersheds, has caused numerous problems in development and ...

The Muskingum-Cunge flood routing procedure has been incorporated into the Natural Resources Conservation Service Technical Release 20 (TR-20) hydrologic model. The TR-20 model is an event watershed hydrologic model used to analyze impacts of watershed changes (land use, reservoir construction, channel modification, etc) on volume of runoff and peak discharge. Rainfall runoff modeling is very i...
