introduction water vapor is an essential climate element. through latent heat exchanges, the water vapor is considered as the principal way of energy transport through the global atmosphere and it is also a dominant greenhouse gas (held and soden, 2000). over the oceans, warmer surface temperatures may lead to increased evaporation and, therefore, greater specific humidity, but an approximately...

BACKGROUND This paper studies the effect of mosquito abundance and malaria incidence in the last 3 weeks, and their interaction, on the hazard of time to malaria in a previously studied cohort of children in Ethiopia. METHODS We model the mosquito abundance and time to malaria data jointly in a Bayesian framework. RESULTS We found that the interaction of mosquito abundance and incidence pla...

Realistic prediction of concrete shrinkage and creep requires the calculation of the distributions of relative humidity at various times. Although the distributions of the relative humidity can be computed by numerical methods from the differential equation for diffusion, simple prediction formulas can facilitate structural analysis. The purpose of this paper is to present a simple formula for ...

the fact that water is the most important factor of life on earth is not a new concept. alteration and reduction in the amount of precipitation, population explosion and contamination of underground water pressurize governments severely to find solution for water resources. the air moisture is one of fresh water resources which has not been noticed and well exploited. in this study proper place...
