The impact of water deficit on berry quality has been extensively investigated during the last decades. Nonetheless, there is a scarcity of knowledge on the performance of varieties exposed to a combination of high temperatures/water stress during the growing season and under vineyard conditions. The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of two irrigation regimes, sustained ...

demonstration of the geomorphological factors in setting the legal regime of the caspian seaintroduction:the caspian sea is the largest water basin which enclosed by land within eurasia continent. the caspian sea is unique in many reasons: the large deposits of oil and gas, valuable fishery resources; including 90% of the world’s stock of sturgeon, important transportation routes; connecting th...

In order to find a measure of the dynamical features of phase separation kinetics during spinodal decomposition of a liquid binary mixture (like water and cyclohexane , water and 2,6 lutidiene or methanol and cyclohexane), we study both the initial fast exponential-like growth (the Cahn-Hilliard regime) and the subsequent cross-over to a much slower, non-exponential long time growth (the so-cal...

Distribution of salinity, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate are presented for the western Gulf of Mexico in 1978. Plots of chemical concentration versus potential density are used to identify the presence of gulf water, tropical Atlantic central water, Antarctic intermediate water, Caribbean midwater, and upper North Atlantic deep water within the upper 1600 m of the western Gu...

Traditionally, surface and ground water resources have been managed as separate resources in Australia, with the result that interactions between the two components have not been duly considered in the development of management strategies. A more integrated approach is required to evaluate the impacts of groundwater extraction on streamflow regime, and eliminate the potential for over-allocatio...

Defining appropriate environmental flow regimes and criteria for the use of environmental water allocations requires experimental data on the ecological impacts of flow regime change and responses to environmental water allocation. Fish assemblages in one regulated and one unregulated tributary paired in each of two sub-catchments of the Hunter River, coastal New South Wales, Australia, were sa...

the consolidation test method proposed by terzaghi and used in most soil mechanic laboratories has limitations and weaknesses. to get correct results, improvement and modification of the test method is essential. several experimental methods, such as constant loading rate, gradient and constant rate of strain (crs) have been used over the past 40 years. of these methods, crs is more advantageou...
