An approach is presented to establish a state-wide basis for geochemical background values from the available data of Geological Survey Bavaria. For this purpose, typical element concentrations rock units in Bavaria were statistically evaluated and lithogeochemical map derived geological at scale 1:25,000. The elements comprise 39 geogenic main trace (SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, MnO, MgO, CaO, Na2O, K2...

Understanding human behavior in the context of exploration and navigation is an important but challenging problem. Such understanding can help in the design of safe structures and spaces that implicitly aid humans during evacuation or other emergency situations. In particular, the role that memory plays in this process is something that is crucial to understand. In this paper, we develop a nove...

The integral thermo-atmogeochemical structural investigations (TAGSI) have been carried out at the continental slope of Western Black Sea Depression for first time. technique TAGSI as non-traditional and cost-effective exploration technology is originally developed Institute Geological Sciences. It consists phased geo-structural researches analysis fault tectonics, morphological neotectonic int...

Active exploration of novel environments is known to increase plasticity in animals, promoting long-term potentiation in the hippocampus and enhancing memory formation. These effects can occur during as well as after exploration. In humans novelty's effects on memory have been investigated with other methods, but never in an active exploration paradigm. We therefore investigated whether active ...
