The paper addresses a landslide-prone area on Fruška Gora Mt. in NW Serbia. It proposes a model of relative landslide susceptibility based on fuzzy sets. Having a variety of spatial attributes (proven statistically significant) at disposal, as well as present landslide inventory map, we conducted systematic analysis through (i) assigning fuzzy memberships to attribute categories, and (ii) combi...

Significant zonation in major, minor, trace, and volatile elements has been documented in naturally glassy olivine-hosted melt inclusions from the Siqueiros Fracture Zone and the Galapagos Islands. Components with a higher concentration in the host olivine than in the melt (e.g., MgO, FeO, Cr2O3, and MnO) are depleted at the edges of the zoned melt inclusions relative to their centers, whereas ...

AbstrakAraknida merupakan kelompok fauna yang umum dijumpai di gua dan berperan penting menjaga keseimbangan ekosistem gua. Kelompok ini dapat ditemukan seluruh zona baik terang, remang, maupun gelap. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan keanekaragaman kelimpahan araknida berdasarkan zonasi Pengambilan data dilakukan 3 terletak kawasan Karst Tasikmalaya, yaitu Gua Sarongge, Liang Boe...

Parasitic plants have profound effects on the ecosystems in which they occur. They are represented by some 4000 species and can be found in most major biomes. They acquire some or all of their water, carbon and nutrients via the vascular tissue of the host’s roots or shoots. Parasitism has major impacts on host growth, allometry and reproduction, which lead to changes in competitive balances be...

BACKGROUND Biological invasions affecting rocky intertidal zonation patterns, yield information on species interactions. In the Bay of Antofagasta, northern Chile, the non-indigenous tunicate Pyura praeputialis, originally from Australia, has invaded (in the past century or so) and monopolized a major portion of the mid-intertidal rocky shore, displacing upshore the native mussel Perumytilus pu...

The muscle-type (M4) lactate dehydrogenases of Sebastolobus altivelis, a deep-water scorpaenid, and S. alascanus, a shallower species, are electrophoretically indistinguishable, yet differ in pressure sensitivities. The lactate dehydrogenase of S. altivelis exhibits lower pressure sensitivities of substrate and coenzyme binding and catalytic rate. Such apparently pressure-adaptive kinetic prope...

The fine structure of the different zones in the adrenal cortex of the adult rat has been studied under the electron microscope. Four regions mainly differentiated by the mitochondrial morphology, the lipid droplets, and the structure of the ground cytoplasm were recognized. In the glomerular zone mitochondria are thin and elongated with an abundant matrix. The inner structure is characterized ...

Traditional statistical methods for seismic zonation require information from many subjects, such as regional geology and neotectonics, seismicity, stress field, damage analysis of historic earthquakes, geophysics and others. These subjects are weighted differently during statistics. In fact, the information from most of these subjects is more like fuzzy sets, ie, it is a sort of estimation rat...

tween Eurasia and Africa that result in a primary eastward-directed, low-velocity current flow along the mid-Cretaceous Eurasian, northern Tethys margin. This conclusion appears to be at odds with sedimentologic and paleontologic field evidence (2, 3) obtained from the Helvetic tectonic unit that is exposed in the northern Alps and represents the former northern Tethys margin in southern Europe...
