To reconstruct the magmatic–hydrothermal processes leading to porphyry Mo ore formation at the Climax Mo mine, Colorado, four magma units that were emplaced before, during and shortly after the mineralization events were investigated: (1) a pre-mineralization white dike of the Alma district; (2) the syn-mineralization Chalk Mountain Rhyolite; (3) a lateto post-mineralization rhyolite porphyry d...

Mountain regions worldwide are affected by climate change. Indeed, mountains represent unique areas for the detection of climate change and the assessment of climate-related impacts (Beniston 2003; Messerli & Ives 1997). The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has predicted dramatic impacts on mountain ecosystems as a result of climate change. Changing climates will potentially alt...

The geographic distribution of Astragalus (Fabaceae) in Iran was analyzed using a database of 7606 georeferencedobservations. Astragalus occurs in all provinces of Iran, but 88% ofthe observations are in five provinces including Tehran, West-Azerbaijan, Esfahan, Kordestan, and Khorasan-e Razavi.Most species are rare and narrowly endemic: Thelargest distance between two observations of the same ...

The paper deals with the subject-plot motif “time extension” in novel “The magic mountain” (“Der Zauberberg”) by Thomas Mann. following constitutive features of this have been singled out: 1) ability main character to concentrate on his inner world means a close introspection; 2) usage hermetic encapsulation device which consists limitation time and space conditions hero’s life; 3) rethinking v...

Alpine regions are moving into the focus of scientific attention: chapter 13 of Agenda 21 is dedicated to mountains, 2002 was declared «International Year of the Mountain» and German Geographers' Day 2003 was entitled «Alpine World Mountain World: Islands, Bridges, Borders». The sustainable preservation of alpine regions represents a global issue, because a tenth of the world's population lives...

In this paper, we modify the mountain method and then create a modified mountain clustering algorithm. The proposed algorithm can automatically estimate the parameters in the modified mountain function in accordance with the structure of the data set based on the correlation self-comparison method. This algorithm can also estimate the number of clusters based on the proposed validity index. As ...

This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in ACP if available. Abstract Idealized large-eddy simulations were performed to investigate the impact of different mountain geometries on daytime pollution transport by thermally driven winds. The main objective was to determine interactions bet...

This work is devoted to study the existence of solutions to equations of the p-Laplacian type in unbounded domains. We prove the existence of at least one solution, and under further assumptions, the existence of in nitely many solutions. We apply the mountain pass theorem in weighted Sobolev spaces.

This paper studies the existence of multiple solutions of the second-order difference boundary value problem Δ2u n − 1 V ′ u n 0, n ∈ Z 1, T , u 0 0 u T 1 . By applying Morse theory, critical groups, and the mountain pass theorem, we prove that the previous equation has at least three nontrivial solutions when the problem is resonant at the eigenvalue λk k ≥ 2 of linear difference problem Δ2u n...
