This study examines the temporal evolution of the tropospheric circulation following large-amplitude variations in the strength of the Southern Hemisphere (SH) stratospheric polar vortex in data from 1979 to 2001 and following the SH sudden stratospheric warming of 2002. In both cases, anomalies in the strength of the SH stratospheric polar vortex precede similarly signed anomalies in the tropo...

due to the remarkable advantages of wavelet transformation, this technique is now very common in gravity analysis. in this research the green’s function occurring in the poisson potential field theory is used to construct non-orthogonal, non-compact, continuous wavelets. this kind of wavelet is directly corresponded to upward continuation procedure. simple geometrical forward models such as sph...

During El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events, atmospheric teleconnections associated with sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the equatorial Pacific can influence the ocean thousands of kilometers away. We use several data sets to delineate this “atmospheric bridge” between ocean basins, focusing on two emerging research areas: 1) the evolution of atmosphere-ocean interactions in th...

[1] Observational analysis has shown that when El NiñoSouthern Oscillation (ENSO) events typically reach their peak amplitude in boreal winter, the associated zonal wind anomalies abruptly shift southward so that the maximum anomalous zonal wind is located around 5 –7 S. Here, an analysis utilizing multiple wind products identifies a clear ENSO phase nonlinearity in the extent of this meridiona...

a variety of semiautomatic methods, based on the use of derivatives of the magnetic anomalies, have been developed for the determination of both of the causative source parameters such as locations of boundaries and depths. one of these techniques is the method of the analytic signal for magnetic anomalies, which was initially used in its complex function form and makes use of the properties of...

purpose: to assess the frequency and type of associated malformations and chromosomal anomalies among patients with anophthalmia, microphthalmia, and coloboma in sistan and baluchestan province. methods: patients with a clinical diagnosis of anophthalmia, microphthalmia, or coloboma were examined to find any anomaly in craniofacial, muscle-skeletal, cardiac, neurologic and urogenital systems. a...

in this descriptive study, researchers determined rate and type of newborn infants’ anomalies in rafsanjen niknafas hospital in 1991-1995.  this study is resulted from medical records of mothers referring to above mentioned center during five years. total number of child birth was 21187. 17321 was normal vaginal delivery and 3866 was cesarean section. because of unknown reasons, 57 infants were...

background: tobacco use has toxic effects on different organs. this study was carried out to assess the effect of indigenous tobacco both in smoking (bidi) and smokeless (gutkha, zarda and khaini) forms on buccal cells at chromosomal level, through assessment of different nuclear anomalies as biomarker. methods:this study was done on people living in durgapur and its adjacent areas, west bengal...
