Reverse-time migration (Baysal et al., 1984) has some potential advantages with respect to downward-continuation migration. It can migrate overturned and prismatic reflections even in the presence of strong lateral velocity variations (Biondi, 2002). It also models the amplitude of the transmitted wavefield more accurately than downward-continuation in the presence of sharp interfaces. However,...

Previous reports suggest that distance influences horizontal stare OKN gains; however, the effect of distance on vertical OKN and look OKN is unknown. Horizontal and vertical look and stare OKN gains were recorded in 16 healthy volunteers (velocity 38.4 degrees /s) at three distances (0.3 m, 1 m, and 2.5 m) and two different stimulus sizes. Asymmetry of responses and correlation of gains in dif...

Direction discrimination (upward/downward or left/right) for a Gabor patch in a two-frame motion display was measured as a function of the inter-frame displacement size of the component grating with the stimulus position (center, left, right, upper and lower visual fields) as a parameter. The results showed that, for vertical motion in the center, left, right and lower visual fields, the observ...

Fine binocular coordination of vertical saccades is a complex process requiring appropriate distribution of innervations to all six extraocular muscles. Loss of such coordination causes vertical binocular disparities that are particularly bothersome. We studied the quality of binocular control of vertical saccades in healthy subjects, 11 young adults (20-28 years) and 11 elderly adults (63-75 y...

the paper is concerning preliminary survey of qaradaq region of eastern azerbaijan in view of ecological, archaeological and ethnographic perspectives. the region under study is poor in fertile soil, underpopulated settlements and nomadic ubas being its dominant landscape. indeed, archaeological investigations show the lack of considerable archaeological records up to the iron age. the main sub...
