nowadays, by complication of production mechanisms from reservoirs and depletion of most of the reservoirs in iran, secondary production has become more important. regarding the nature of iranian reservoirs and carbonate inherencies and diagenetic and tectonic effects on these reservoirs, we see heterogeneities in them which cause uncertainty in predictions and performance of these reservoirs. ...

the transfer and sedimentation in storage dams reduce the volume and damage the life of water reservoirs. due to the importance of water, its storage, and the cost time of constructing reservoirs, especially the scarcity of construncting sites for them, a lot of attentions should be given to the sedimentation of dam reservoirs. it requires the estimate of thew sedimentation and its management. ...

BACKGROUND Campylobacteriosis contributes strongly to the disease burden of food-borne pathogens. Case-control studies are limited in attributing human infections to the different reservoirs because they can only trace back to the points of exposure, which may not point to the original reservoirs because of cross-contamination. Human Campylobacter infections can be attributed to specific reserv...

In this report we studied the effect of reservoir topology on the learning performance of the echo state networks. Different tasks with different properties were defined and three general models (scale-free, small-world and random) were considered for reservoirs. Some relations between the topology-related parameters of the reservoirs and performance of it (mean square error) was discovered. Fo...

Abstract This paper presents a spill-minimizing operating policy for refill of reservoirs in parallel for water supply considering water quality criteria. First a Linear Programming form of the New York City Rule is developed. Next, this formulation is extended to consider stratified water quality in the reservoirs and a requirement of water quality for the downstream demand. Both approaches ar...

Reservoirs exhibit gradients in conditions and resources along the transition from lotic to lentic habitat that may be important to bluegill ecology. The lotic-lentic gradient can be partitioned into three functional zones: the riverine, transitional, and lacustrine zones. We measured catch frequency and length of bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus) captured along the periphery of these areas (i.e....

Open systems are usually understood as a small Hamiltonian system (i.e. with a finite number of degrees of freedom) in contact with one or several large reservoirs. There are several ways to model reservoirs and we will take the point of view that the reservoirs are also Hamiltonian systems themselves. It is a convenient physical and mathematical idealization to separate scales and assume that ...

Emission of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, from tropical reservoirs is of interest because such reservoirs experience conducive conditions for CH4 production through anaerobic microbial activities. It has been suggested that Indian reservoirs have the potential to emit as much as 33.5 MT of CH4 per annum to the atmosphere. However, this estimate is based on assumptions rather than actu...

A lot of oil and gas reservoirs have been or will be abandoned in petroleum industry. In this study, we pointed out that these oil and gas reservoirs might be transferred into exceptional enhanced geothermal reservoirs with very high temperatures by oxidizing the residual oil with injected air. A concept to generate power from these exceptional enhanced geothermal reservoirs by using geothermal...
