water erosion causes severe soil damage in northern forests of iran which is associated with different rut depths in skid trails. the aim of this study was to assess rutting and soil displacement on skid trails to mitigate water erosion. therefore the research was carried out in eight parcels of district no 3 of shafarood forest in the north of iran. in order to evaluate the amount of erosion i...

residential mobility is an important ecological mobility which, besides physical impacts, has contributed in shaping or reshaping of urban social milieus. the analyses of results related to a sample of 17510 households inhabiting in 40 regions of mashhad indicates that 46.9 percent of them had experienced a residential relocation during a period of ten years, the maximum of which (62.8 percent)...

We re-analyze the effect on the spectral tail of a gravity wave propagating in a shearing background. The contribution to the spectrum of horizontal wind perturbations for low vertical wavenumbers comes from the Doppler shifting with a -1 slope and for high wavenumbers from the leakage effect with slopes ranging between -4 to -2. If leakage is not present, it becomes necessary to consider the t...

nowadays, with the development of human societies and more mastery over the environment, to environmental changes caused by the faster and wider than before the occurrence of the joins. so having the necessary information about these changes and to manage the natural order is essential to sustainable ecosystems, metrics of landscape is tools landscape situation are few mechanisms that cause the...

One can solve the Jeans equation analytically for equilibrated dark matter structures, once given two pieces of input from numerical simulations. These inputs are 1) a connection between phase-space density and radius, and 2) a connection between velocity anisotropy and density slope, the α − β relation. The first (phase-space density v.s. radius) has already been analysed through several diffe...

"This paper evaluates the influence of residential density on commuting behavior across U.S. cities while controlling for available opportunities, the technology of transportation infrastructure, and individual socio-economic and demographic characteristics. The measures of metropolitan and local density are addressed separately.... Regressions are conducted to predict commuting time, speed, an...

Nacrtak The purpose of the study was to examine the ability of LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) to derive terrain slope over large areas and to use the derived slope data to model the effect of slope on the productivity of a self-levelling feller-buncher in order to predict its productivity for a wide range of slopes. The study was carried out for a self-levelling tracked feller-buncher in a...
