the chah morra cu occurrence is located 15 to 20 km north of toroud village, south of shahrood. in this area, cu deposits are hosted by the andesitic sequence and most of rocks in this area are composed of andesite. veins contain minerals such as digenite, bornite, covellite, malachite, cuprite, tenorite, native copper and fe oxide and hydroxides. also some orthomagmatic magnetite and chalcopyr...

This contribution deals with the discrimination between stratiform and convective cells in meteorological radar images. This study is based on a textural analysis of the latter and their classification using a Support Vector Machine (SVM). First, we applied different textural parameters such as energy, entropy, inertia and local homogeneity. Through this experience, we identified the different ...

[1] The probability density function of the drop diameter at the ground is investigated during stratiform and convective precipitation intervals at Darwin, Australia. We show how, after a renormalization procedure of the drop diameter, the empirical probability density functions of both types of precipitation collapse in a single curve, indicating the possible existence of an invariant distribu...

Stratiform clouds constitute ∼40% of global cloud cover and play a key role in determining the planetary radiation budget. Electrification remains one of the least understood effects on their microphysical processes. Droplet charging at the top and bottom edges of stratiform clouds arises from vertical current flow through clouds driven by the Global atmospheric Electric Circuit. In-cloud charg...

The Dehaj area, located in the southern part of the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic belt, is a well-endowed terrain hosting a number of world-class porphyry copper deposits. These deposits are all hosted in an acidic to intermediate volcano-plutonic sequence greatly affected by various types of the hydrothermal alterations, whether argillic, phyllic or propylitic. Although there are a handful of hithe...

A simple model of two vertical modes is constructed and analyzed to reveal the basic instability mechanisms of convectively coupled waves. The main novelty of this model is a convective parameterization based on the quasi-equilibrium concept and simplified for a model of two vertical modes. It hypothesizes 1) the approximate invariance of the difference between saturation moist static energy in...

This study investigates the sensitivity of the estimated monthly convective rain fraction— that is, the percentage of the areal rain accumulation contributed by precipitation identified as convective—to variations of the Z–R parameters used in radar-based rainfall estimation. Accurate knowledge of the fractions of precipitation that are convective and stratiform is important for climatological ...
