Simplifications used in regional climate models decrease the accuracy of the regional climate models. To overcome this deficiency, usually a statistical technique of MOS is used to improve the skill of gridded outputs of the Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In this paper, an experimental synoptic-climatology based method has been used to calibrate, and decrease amount of errors in GFS...

Abstract Key message An exceptionally high number of blue rings were formed within and between Scots pine trees from Estonia in 1976: a year that is well known for its outstanding summer heatwave over Western Europe, but extreme autumnal cooling Eastern Europe has so far been neglected scientific literature. ‘Blue rings’ (BRs) are visual indicators less lignified cell walls typically towards th...

Several ANN models were developed to prediction of monthly precipitation data in Mashhad synoptic station. From the total 636 monthly precipitation data (from 1958 to 2008), 580 data has been used for training networks and the rest selected randomly has been used for validation of the models. To extract the precipitation dynamic of this station by ANN, a new approach of three-layer feed-forward...

In this experiment, the chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from Ferula assa-foetida oleo-gum resin collected from two different sites of Yazd province (Tabas and Yazd) in the center of Iran, were identified. The gas chromatography mass-spectroscopy (GC/MS) data showed that the qualitative composition of the components appeared to be constant in two different regions. Moreover, ...

t has been shown that stress can induce hyperglycemia in several animal models of type II diabetes (1). Cori theorized a link between the physiologic stress response and development of hyperglycemia. In his experiments with rabbits, Cori demonstrated that continuous infusion of epinephrine exacerbated hyperglycemia (2). Van Loon continued these researches by infusing beta endorphins intracister...

The present work aims at examining the association of nighttime temperature inversions and synoptic-scale circulation in the Athens basin. Temperature inversions have a direct impact in the diffusion and transport of pollutants, a fact that highlights the importance of investigating their cause effect relationship. For this purpose, randiosonde measurements from the upper-air station in Hellini...
