The study presents geologic investigation of Yemen and the Gulf Aden with a special focus on geophysical, seismic, tectonic topographic mapping performed by integrated approach QGIS GMT scripting. Cartographic visualization is crucial in analysis, data processing prognosis mineral resource prospects. region was formed as result Arabian African plates movements still tectonically active. Besides...

Hazard analysts and risk managers of natural perils, such as earthquakes, landslides and floods, need to access information from sensor networks surveying their regions of interest. However, currently information about these networks is difficult to obtain and is available in varying formats, thereby restricting accesses and consequently possibly leading to decision-making based on limited info...

Integrating geological concepts, such as relative positions and proportions of the different lithofacies, is of highest importance in order to render realistic geological patterns. The truncated plurigaussian simulation method provides a way of using both local and conceptual geological information to infer the distributions of the facies and then those of hydraulic parameters. The method (Le L...

Several types of fundamental ontological relations connect the endurant (continuant) and perdurant (occurrent) entities in every domain. These include: instantiation, parthood, location, and connection relations, and those that are derived from them, such as adjacency, overlap, containment, and coincidence. Some of these types of relations, and their subtypes, are formally defi ned in the conte...

The history of geological cartography the present territory Lithuania starts with a map published by Jean Etienne Guettard in 1764 and followed maps Stanisław Staszic 1806, Ignacy Domeyko 1837, Frederic Dubois de Montpereaux 1830. A new period investigations compilation about 1840 is closely related development stratigraphic knowledge; therefore, this marks beginning mapping using concept (Helm...

The Neoproterozoic era was arguably the most revolutionary in Earth history. Extending from 1000 to 541 million years ago, it stands at the intersection of the two great tracts of evolutionary time: on the one side, some three billion years of pervasively microbial 'Precambrian' life, and on the other the modern 'Phanerozoic' biosphere with its extraordinary diversity of large multicellular org...

Projections of climate change impact are associated with a cascade of uncertainties including in CO2 emission scenarios, climate models, downscaling and impact models. The relative importance of the individual uncertainty sources is expected to depend on several factors including the quantity that is projected. In the present study the impacts of climate model uncertainty and geological model u...
