The increase in population and demand for settlement facilities infrastructure affects the attractiveness of Batu city (Indonesia) has a significant impact on environmentWe perform spatial mapping environmental carrying capacity developing settlements using overlay-geoprocessing method. This method is based unit indicators such as slope, morthology, soil type, elevation, potential disasters obt...

Streaks and gullies (Figs 1,2) are common on Martian slopes, and are geologically young; slope streaks have formed during the last few years of Mars Global Surveyor imaging. Both slope streaks [1] and gullies [2] involve flow of granular material, but it is not clear whether liquid water (or another suspending agent) was involved. The possibility that liquid water was involved makes gullies and...

the analysis of the relationship between spatial distribution of environmental factors andvegetation types is crucial for understanding mountainous ecosystems. in this research agis based approach was used to produce a vegetation map for sabzkouh protected area inthe chaharmahal-va-bakhtiari province. to identify environmental parameters affecting thevegetation cover, 6 primary and secondary en...

I propose a modification of the spherical infall model for the evolution of density fluctuations with initially Gaussian probability distribution and scale-free power spectra in Einstein-de Sitter universe as developed by Hoffman & Shaham. I introduce a generalized form of the initial density distribution around an overdense region and cut it off at half the inter-peak separation accounting in ...

soil erosion is undoubtedly one of the most important problems in natural areas and has a devastating impact on grassland ecosystems. the present study was conducted to assess the ability of rangeland hydrology and erosion model for estimating sediment yield on rangeland’s hill slopes in dry regions at shahid noori paired watershed of kakhk. rhem is a mathematical, distribution and physical mod...

Despite representing a key parameter when modelling morphology or sediment transport, surface sediments are often assumed homogenous, with grain size temporally constant. This contribution uses a 6-year data set of monthly sediment samples to quantify the observed variability in intertidal beach sands at four energetic, macrotidal locations (North Cornwall, UK). Changes in grain size and sortin...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the evolution of ground reaction force during alpine skiing turns. Specifically, this study investigated how turn phases and slope steepness affected the whole foot normal GRF pattern while performing giant slalom turns in a race-like setting. Moreover, the outside foot was divided into different plantar regions to see whether those parameters affect...

A 71 year old man with hypertensive heart disease and chronic renal failure was wearing a Holter monitor when he had a cardiac arrest. He had ventricular fibrillation (VF) and died despite prompt resuscitation. In the 15 minutes preceding the VF there was a sudden increase in heart rate, followed by a brief period of atrial fibrillation leading to ventricular tachycardia, which in turn rapidly ...

Long-lasting potentiation in the hippocampal pathways is used at present as a model for long-term plasticity in the nervous system. In this study post-tetanic potentiation was investigated in the dentate gyrus-area CA3 pathway by extra- and intracellular recordings from transverse slices of the mouse hippocampus. Tetanization of the dentate gyrus led to a reduction in the latency of action pote...

In the diverse relief of north-east part of Kosova a relatively wide range occupies the relief modelled by the descent phenomenon, which is conditioned by morph-structural and climatic factors quite suitable for their development. The morphogenesis activity of descent phenomenon is conditioned by the types of rocks, tectonic process of this region and climatic conditions. These factors conditio...
