in this paper, effects of the cross shore and groyne wall slopes on flow parameters around an impermeable groyne were considered using a three-dimensional numerical cfd model (i.e., fluent). the k-ε turbulence model was used to evaluate the reynolds stresses. the model was first applied to a vertical groyne on a flat bed and the model results were compared with the relevant experimental data. t...

Precipitation plays vital roles in the global water cycle, knowledge of spatial and temporal variation precipitation is essential to understanding extreme environmental phenomena such as floods, landslides, drought. In this paper, integrated characteristics during 1980–2016 over Nepal along with seasonal elevation dependency were examined for three different regions country using Multi-Source W...

Ecological Relationships of Slope and Elevation with Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia L.) in Arasbaran Forests

The fade slope is a stochastic parameter and varies with time. The probability distribution of fade slope can depend on attenuation, on the drop size distribution and therefore on the type of rain, and on the wind velocity perpendicular to the path. Furthermore, if several rain cells and/or different kinds of rain may be present, the fade slope is likely to decrease with path length, and theref...

During the week of 7-14 March 2006, observations of winds and relative humidity were taken at various points along the mountain at Storm Peaks Laboratory in Steamboat Springs, CO. These observations were used to determine the relationship between slope flow and relative humidity. Slope flow is defined as the dot product of the wind vector and the gradient in elevation. The charts show details a...

[1] Erosion by bedrock river channels is commonly modeled with the stream power equation. We present a two-part approach to solving this nonlinear equation analytically and explore the implications for evolving river profiles. First, a method for non-dimensionalizing the stream power equation transforms river profiles in steady state with respect to uniform uplift into a straight line in dimens...
