Apparent particle size grading is the most important characteristic of super-high dumping site. On the basis of the development of the HHC-CA model and on-site survey of granular size distribution, the slope model of current situation, had considered the features of particle size grading, was established according to a super-high dumping site. FLAC was used to analyze the slope stability of cur...

[1] A series of 10 advanced very high resolution radiometers (AVHRRs) flown on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s polar-orbiting satellites for over 20 years has provided data suitable for many quantitative remote sensing applications. To be useful for geophysical research, each radiometer must be accurately calibrated, which poses problems in the AVHRR reflectance channel...

A simple theory is presented for a nocturnal low-level jet (LLJ) over a planar slope. The theory extends the classical inviscid inertialoscillation model of LLJs to include upand downslope motion in the boundary layer within a stably stratified environment. The particular scenario considered is typical of LLJs over the Great Plains of the United States: southerly geostrophic wind over terrain t...

This paper deals with the externalities associated with the individual developing country’s cost of credit and borrowing level. As long as the supply curve of credit is positively sloped, the interest rate charged on credit extended to a particular developing country is affected by the aggregate borrowing level of the rest of the countries. Moreover, the relatively high level of indebtedness of...

This paper illustrates how multiple scattering signatures affect Global Precipitation Measuring (GPM) Mission Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) Ku and Ka band reflectivity measurements and how they are consistent with prelaunch assessments based on theoretical considerations and confirmed by airborne observations. In particular, in the presence of deep convection, certain characteristics...

Monaural phase discrimination was evaluated at 1000 Hz in six normal-hearing listeners as a function of the frequency difference between components in three-tone complexes at 40, 60, 80, and 100 dB SPL. The phase of the center component of 100% sinusoidally amplitude-modulated (SAM) waveforms was shifted by 90 degrees to produce quasi-frequency-modulated (QFM) waveforms that had identical long-...
