Man-made impoundment-induced transformation of river biota leads to profound and irreversible changes in the hydrological regime, the structure of communities of all groups of aquatic organisms, from phytoplankton to fish and their parasites.

Deterministic Thermal Reservoirs [PDF]
We explore the consequences of a deterministic microscopic thermostat-reservoir contact mechanism for hard disks where the collision rule at the boundary is modified. Numerical evidence and theoretical argument is given that suggests that an energy balance is achieved for a system of hard disks in contact with two reservoirs at equal temperatures. This

The development of natural fractures can easily lead to horizontal wellbore instability caused by stress concentration after drilling in shale reservoirs, which is not conducive to the safe development of shale gas, but how different natural fractures ...

We consider reservoirs in the form of liquid state machines, i.e., recurrently connected networks of spiking neurons with randomly chosen weights. So far only the weights of a linear readout were adapted for a specific task. We wondered whether the performance of liquid state machines can be improved if the recurrent weights are chosen with a purpose ...

Numerical study of influence of hydraulic fracturing on fluid flow in natural fractures
The hydraulic fracturing operation is highly complex in fractured reservoirs. The fundamental key to a successful operation is processing and analysis of the propagation of hydraulic fracturing in a natural fracture network.

CO2 injection has been proposed as an efficient method for enhanced oil recovery in low‐permeability sandstone reservoirs. When CO2 is injected into such reservoirs, the petrophysical properties as well as the pore size distribution of tight formation ...

Tight sands are abundant in nanopores leading to a high capillary pressure and normally a low fluid injectivity. As such, spontaneous imbibition might be an effective mechanism for improving oil recovery from tight sands after fracturing.

Deeply buried carbonate successions in China’s Tarim Basin host substantial hydrocarbons. In the southern Tahe Oilfield, Middle–Lower Ordovician limestones show little evidence of subaerial weathering because the Upper Ordovician strata protected them ...

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Inflatable penile prostheses (IPP) have been a successful method of treating men with erectile dysfunction since the early 1970s. IPP are comprised of two intracorporal cylinders, a scrotal pump and a fluid reservoir.
