UNLABELLED Although only recently described, Colletotrichum boninense is well established in literature as an anthracnose pathogen or endophyte of a diverse range of host plants worldwide. It is especially prominent on members of Amaryllidaceae, Orchidaceae, Proteaceae and Solanaceae. Reports from literature and preliminary studies using ITS sequence data indicated that C. boninense represents ...

The sluicing flume that was designed is less capable of silting up and losing its calibration than its counterparts of standard sharp-crested compound weir design. The laboratory work described here led to a refinement in the design in the form of a short flume set into the lowest section of a compound Crump weir gauging installation. Critical flow occurs near the exit of this flume, and it is ...

Microbial ecosystems are often assumed to be relatively stable over short periods of time, but this assumption is seldom tested. An urban stream influenced by both flow and varying levels of anthropogenic influences is expected to have high temporal variability in microbial composition, and short-term ecological instability. Thus, we analyzed the bacterioplankton composition of a weir-fragmente...

Abstract—This study investigated the change of weir structure performances when durability of concrete, which is the main material of weir structure, decreased due to their aging by mean of seismic fragility analysis. In the analysis, it was assumed that the elastic modulus of concrete was reduced by 10% in order to account for their aged deterioration. Additionally, the analysis of seismic fra...

and canyon sediments in several canyon reaches are contaminated with low-levels of radionuclides from hisFollowing the May 2000 Cerro Grande fire at Los Alamos, NM, toric LANL operations (Reneau et al., 1998). To mitisurface water control structures were constructed near Los Alamos to mitigate the transport of contaminant-bearing sediment toward the gate potential off-site migration of these se...

Nowadays, developed and applied hydrology become very important thing in the life due to the wide verity advantages for the applications of this field. Hydraulic Structures such as crump weir are placed in channels to estimate or measure flow rate and flow control devices. In this study there is a new performance for crump weir which appears by adding opening holes in the model  of crump weir. ...

Diyala Governorate was recently exposed to high flood waves discharged from Hemrin Dam. Since the dam at its full capacity during period, these were River. Because of reduction in River 750m3/s, cities and villages on both sides river banks inundated. Thus, study's objective is design a escape out River, discharge wave through it. The simulation done by using HEC- RAS software. Two hundred twen...
