The Research and Application of Microbial Degradation Technology on Heavy Oil Reservoir in Huabei Oilfield

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Mengulin sandstone reservoir in Huabei oilfield is low- temperature heavy oil reservoir. Recently, it is at later stage of waterflooding development. The producing degree of water flooding is poor, and it is difficult to keep yield stable.

Piping and woody plants in peatlands: Cause or effect? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This paper presents, for the first time, evidence to show that Calluna species are one causative factor of piping in blanket peat catchments. Ground-penetrating radar survey on 960 plots illustrated that piping was prevalent throughout blanket peats ...

Shallow geological structures triggered during the Mw 6.4 Meinong earthquake, southwestern Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
The Meinong earthquake generated up to ~10 cm surface displacement located 10 - 35 km west of the epicenter and monitored by InSAR and GPS. In addition to coseismic deformation related to the deep earthquake source, InSAR revealed three sharp surface ...

Comparing Methods for Interpolation to Improve Raster Digital Elevation Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Digital elevation models (DEMs) are available as raster files at 100m, 30m, and 10m resolutions for the contiguous United States and are used in a variety of geographic analyses. Some projects may require a finer resolution.

Mapping topsoil field-saturated hydraulic conductivity from point measurements using different methods

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017
Topsoil field-saturated hydraulic conductivity, Kfs, is a parameter that controls the partition of rainfall between infiltration and runoff and is a key parameter in most distributed hydrological models.

Controlling suction by vapour equilibrium technique at different temperatures, application to the determination of the water retention properties of MX80 clay

open access: yes, 2007
Problems related to unsaturated soils are frequently encountered in geotechnical or environmental engineering works. In most cases, for the purpose of simplicity, the problems are studied by considering the suction effects on volume change or shear ...
