Cellular-Automata model for dense-snow avalanches [PDF]
This paper introduces a three-dimensional model for simulating dense-snow avalanches, based on the numerical method of cellular automata. This method allows one to study the complex behavior of the avalanche by dividing it into small elements, whose ...

Grasshoppers’ adaptation to elevated radioactivity in the Chernobyl exclusion zone [PDF]
The explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in 1986 was categorized as the most severe nuclear accident in history, resulting in some of the most radioactively contaminated habitats on Earth. The consequence was an increased mutation and mortality rate in biota, which caused major damage on the ecosystem level, observed as local extinction and ...

Zones of Parallel Lines of Elevation in the Earth's Crust [PDF]
HE is a bold man who will predicate that no future discovered fact will disturb even the most widely accepted hypothesis. This being so, all hypotheses being in fact tentative only, and valuable in so far as they enable us to classify and deduce laws from such facts as we know, we ought to welcome every generalisation which groups known facts under ...

Wave attenuation in mangrove forests; field data obtained in Trang, Thailand [PDF]
Mangroves thrive in sheltered intertidal areas in the tropics and sub-tropics. Due to this position at the interface between land and sea, mangroves play an important role in the attenuation of waves.

Preliminary Evaluation of AIS Spectra Along a Topographic/moisture Gradient in the Nebraska Sandhills [PDF]
Six spectral plots, each summarizing single-pixel reflectance for 128 channels of Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (AIS) data, were examined. The six sample pixels were located along a topographic/moisture gradient from lake surface to dune top in the ...

Ant Diversity Declines with Increasing Elevation along the Udzungwa Mountains, Tanzania
Biodiversity patterns along elevational gradients are generally characterised by monotonic decreases or mid-elevational peaks in species richness, while elevational zones may be characterised by distinct assemblages, or higher zones may be subsets of ...

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.
