although typically small in terms of their spatial footprint, landslide hazards are relativelyfrequent in northern iran. we assess landslide susceptibility for the nearly 20.000 km2 large study area of the urmia lake basin which is dominated by agricultural land use but includes the major settlements areas of the east azerbaijan province, iran. landslide factors are established in form of gis d...

an ideal fusion method preserves the spectral information in fused image without spatial distortion. the pca is believed to be a well-known pan-sharpening approach and being widely used for its efficiency and high spatial resolution. however, it can distort the spectral characteristics of multispectral images. the current paper tries to present a new fusion method based on the same concept. in ...

background and aims: trends in deaths and medical admissions in the uk and europe show evidence for a series of infectious-like events. these events have been overlooked by traditional surveillance methodologies. preliminary evidence points to a rise in medical admissions in australia around the same time as those observed in europe, and this study was aimed to evaluate whether the deaths are o...

frost is one of the atmospheric phenomena which seriously threaten crop production. it also causes numerousaccidents in mountainous roads. in this research the spatial synoptic classification ssc method was employed toclassify the type of air masses. for the classification, such meteorological data as: temperature, dew point, mean sealevel pressure, cloudiness, direction and speed of wind were ...

monitoring of road traffic noise is becoming an important issue in modern cities due to the spreading of noise pollution and the extension of monitored areas. thus, the stratified spatial sampling is frequently applied to reduce the costs and provide adequate accuracy in order to obtain reliable noise maps. the definition of the strata in the sampling may refer to the legislative classification...

objectives: the visual-motor skill is one of the major factors in the learning process. visual-spatial and visual analysis skills are components of the visual motor skill. any deficiency in visual-motor skills and their components often causes problem in writing and learning processes in children. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of occupational therapy (o.t.) intervention on...

poverty can have spatial dimensions. while general figures might show the spatial pattern of poverty, there is a need for more detailed examination of this pattern. relying on simple figures of spatial patterns and ranking regions based on them might be misleading. this paper tries to apply spatial analysis methodsm, namely spatial autoregressive models to find out the impacts of space on the h...
