Excluding grazers is one of most efficient ways to restore degraded grasslands in desert-steppe communities, but may negatively affect the recovery of plant species diversity. However, diversity differences between grazed and fenced grasslands in desert-steppe are poorly known. In a Stipa breviflora desert steppe community in Northern China, we established six plots to examine spatial patterns ...

water quality prediction is a valuable tool for pollutant control in aquatic environments. a river system is selected and one-dimensional flow is assumed for the simulation of pollutant transport in this paper. advective and diffusive terms of transport equation are considered separately. different functions of advective transport are proposed and applied for a specified velocity on the discret...

estimation and mapping of forest resources are preconditions for management, planning and research. in this study, we applied kriging interpolation of geostatistics for estimation and mapping of forest stock at-tributes in a natural, uneven-aged, unmanaged forest in the caspian region of northern iran. the site of the study has an area of 516 ha and an elevation that ranges from 1100 to 1450 m ...

[1] A high-resolution stratigraphic image of a flume-generated deposit was scaled up to sedimentary basin dimensions where a natural log hydraulic conductivity (ln(K)) was assigned to each pixel on the basis of gray scale and conductivity end-members. The synthetic ln(K) map has mean, variance, and frequency distributions that are comparable to a natural alluvial fan deposit. A geostatistical a...

in [1] we uniquely introduced ultra exponential functions (uxpa) and denednext step of the serial binary operations: addition, multiplication and power.also, we exhibited the topic of limit summability of real functions in [2,3]. inthis paper, we study limit summability of the ultra exponential functions andprove some of their properties. finally, we pose an unsolved problem aboutthem.

post-mineralization activities may cause difficulties in the process of ore modeling in porphyry deposits. sungun, nw iran, is one of the porphyry copper deposits, in which dyke intrusions have made ore modeling more complicated than expected. among different kinds of dykes, two types were chosen and the consequent geostatistical analyses were applied on. in this study, simple directional vario...
