Die Höhe, wo ich mich am liebsten niederließ, war nicht der höchste Gipfelpunkt, wo man Platz nimmt wie ein König auf dem Thron, um die zu seinen Füßen hingestreckten Weiten seines Reiches zu betrachten. Ich fühlte mich wohler auf der nächsthöheren Erhebung, von wo mein Blick zugleich über niedrigere Flanken schweifen konnte, um dann Grat um Grat die hohen Wände emporzusteigen zu der in Himmelsblau getauchten Spitze. Dort musste ich das Gefühl von Stolz nicht unterdrücken, das mich auf dem Scheitelpunkt des Berges unwillkürlich überkommen hätte, sondern gönnte meinen Augen das Vergnügen, sich sattzusehen am Anblick des Schönen, das Schnee und Felsen, Wälder und Weiden mir boten. Ich verweilte auf halbem Wege zwischen den Sphären von Erde und Himmel und fühlte mich frei, ohne einsam zu sein. Nirgendwo sonst ergriff mein Herz ein so süßes Gefühl des Friedens. ····· 10361180182

Development of experimental, monitoring, and mathematical methods to quantify water fluxes and transport in heterogeneous aquifer system models

····· lezzter Preis 25.75€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The present study provides experimental and mathematical methods for the understanding and quantification of the water fluxes and solute transport in heterogeneous layered porous groundwater systems characterised by differences in hydraulic conductivities.On the one hand, multi-layered porous groundwater systems with different hydraulic conductivities are characterised by a heterogeneous flow field, which causes a heterogeneous mass transport. On the other hand, extreme differences in hydraulic conductivities create regions of immobile water which influence the mass transport. These two different structural heterogeneities - variable hydraulic conductivities and immobile/stagnant water zones - were investigated experimentally in different laboratory aquifer models. The influence of immobile and stagnant water zones on mass transport was investigated with multi-tracer tests using tracers with different diffusion properties, namely uranine, bromide, deuterium, oxygen-18 as well as tritium-labelled water, in two-dimensional packed sediment column setups. Two separate column setups were filled. One column setup was filled with clay and sandy material while a second was filled with two different sand sediments. The observed tracer concentration breakthrough curves showed differences in peak concentrations and pronounced tails. Qualitative evaluation of tracer concentration curves led to the assumption that these effects were caused by a diffusive exchange of tracers between immobile and stagnant water regions. The measured data was modelled for the first time in porous media using the Single-Fissure Dispersion Model (SFDM). This model, which was developed for fissured aquifers, yielded a very good fit with all of the tracer concentration curves observed. Further quantitative evaluation of the system parameters (porosities of both materials, diameter of the water¬-bearing layer) in columns consisting of clay and sandy materials produced values that closely matched those independently known. This agreement of parameters confirmed that the model was valid for the heterogeneous systems tested. The model was able to calibrate the tracer curves and to estimate the parameters for the main water-bearing layer for the column consisting of two sandy materials with different hydraulic conductivities. The exchange into the bordering stagnant water occurred via both diffusion and an additional local transport by focusing the flow field into the more conductive material. Thus, in cases where the two materials have rather similar properties, the quantitative evaluation of the parameters of the less permeable layer is only possible when the porosity of that layer is known independently. Both types of experiments with a heterogeneous porous material showed that in groundwater sediments consisting of layers with different hydraulic conductivities the majority of mass is transported in the more conductive layer. The application of the SFDM in porous systems clearly proved that diffusive exchange into regions of immobile or stagnant water is an extremely important factor which has to be quantified. The study clearly demonstrated that multi-tracer experiments modelled with the SFDM are a very useful tool for solving the inverse problem, i.e. for quantifying parameters in such a heterogeneous porous medium.The influence of the local hydraulic conductivity differences on the flow field and mass transport was additionally experimentally investigated in a multi-layered large-scale indoor aquifer model (480 cm x 80 cm x 70 cm). A hydraulically more conductive layer caused a heterogeneous flow field which was traced by an instantaneous injection of uranine, bromide and tritium labelled water. Tracer observations performed in 2-D (vertical) at a high spatial and temporal resolution resulted in single tracer concentration curves. The tracer concentration curves clearly showed that multi-flow-path effects dominated. It was found that these can be adequately analysed using the Multi-Flow Dispersion Model (MFDM). The qualitative analyses showed that the more conductive sediment layer first focused the flow field, and that the water flux split into three different flow paths after leaving the focusing layer, as to be expected. The quantitative evaluation with the MFDM yielded the parameters of these flow paths. The volumetric water fluxes for flow paths with velocities of 2.7 m/d, 1.9 m/d and 1.3 m/d were estimated to be 55 %, 26 % and 19 % of the total water flux, respectively. It was also found that these flow paths were observed only over very short flow distances. After 2.5 m, all water fluxes characterised by different water velocities joined into one water flux which exhibited the mean water velocity but also showed higher dispersivity. This finding is extremely important for the further evaluation of pollutant migration and biodegradation.The present study clearly demonstrated that even in complex groundwater systems with a variety of structural heterogeneities the determination and quantification of different flow paths, and/or mobile and immobile water zones is possible by performing multi-tracer experiments using tracers with different diffusion properties, combined with an adequate modelling approach. ····· 10361193065

Los radares de apertura sintética SAR han demostrado un gran potencial para la obtención de la humedad de suelos desnudos de agricultura. Como el coeficiente de retrodispersión medido por éstos está determinado por las características de la superficie, el problema de la obtención de la humedad del suelo es fuertemente dependiente de la rugosidad de la superficie en la longitud de onda de operación del SAR. Por esto mismo, surge la necesidad de medir y caracterizar la rugosidad superficial de suelos de agricultura. En este trabajo se presenta el desarrollo asociado al diseño y a la construcción de un perfilómetro láser bidimensional para la medición de la rugosidad superficial de suelos de agricultura. El perfilómetro láser bidimensional es portátil, de fácil manejo y es capaz de obtener el perfil bidimensional de una superficie de 79 cm x 27 cm y hasta 12 cm de altura en un tiempo de 3.0 min, con un error de 0.2 mm en la coordenada vertical y errores similares para las coordenadas horizontales.

Los estudios de la variabilidad anual e interanual de la temperatura superficial del mar (TSM) y de la profundidad de la termoclina en el Pacífico ecuatorial oriental se han basado principalmente en datos in situ obtenidos por el conjunto de boyas TAO/TRITON o se han derivado de modelos de circulación general. Los análisis de datos in situ se han limitado a la región Oeste de los 95°W y no permiten una visión profunda entre las Islas Galápagos y las costas del Ecuador. Así, esta tesis analiza los procesos que controlan la TSM y determina las oscilaciones interanuales en la estructura de la temperatura vertical de la columna de agua en el borde costero ecuatoriano. Mediante un balance de calor de la capa de mezcla en la estación oceanográfica La Libertad se determinaron los principales procesos que controlan la TSM a escala estacional. La variabilidad interanual en la columna de agua, estuvo explicada principalmente por las oscilaciones cuasi-bienal y cuasi-cuadrienal. La coincidencia en amplitud y fase de ambas oscilaciones explicaron la intensidad de los eventos El Niño. ····· 10361137125

Systemanalyse und Optimierung tiefengeothermischer Kraftwerke

····· lezzter Preis 27.31€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Bei der Auslegung und dem anschließenden Produktionsbetrieb geothermischer Kraftwerke wird oftmals die Wirtschaftlichkeit durch Anlagenausfälle gefährdet.Typische Schadensbilder sind hierbei Korrosion, Ablagerungen (Scaling & Fouling), Erosion, Kavitation und Materialermüdung. Korrosion und Scaling sind in erster Linie auf die vorliegende hohe Salinität, Erosion durch Sandaustrag aus der Formation, Kavitation durch das Unterschreiten des Dampfdruckes des geförderten Fluids und Materialermüdung durch An- und Abfahrvorgänge, zurückzuführen. Es werden hierfür hohe Anforderungen an die Materialien gestellt. Während der Planungsphase muss in einem sehr frühen Stadium eine Material-/Werkstoffwahl, oft ohne genaue Kenntnis der vorliegenden örtlichen geothermalen Fluid - Zusammensetzung, getroffen werden.Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wird das geothermische Gesamtsystem: Primärkreislauf (Erschließung und Betrieb des Untergrundes), Sekundärkreislauf (Kraftwerk) und Tertiär-kreislauf (Wärme- und Kälteverteilung) am Standort der Medizinischen Hochschule Hannover untersucht. Das Ziel ist die Entwicklung einer transparenten, strukturierten Auslegungsstrategie für das geothermische Kraftwerk, um einen effektiven und wirtschaftlichen Anlagenbetrieb zu gewährleisten.Maßgeblich wird das geothermische Gesamtsystem vom primären Kreislauf beeinflusst. Die Haupteinflussgrößen sind die Ausfallszeiten der einzelnen Aggregate und die Wärmeübertragung unter dem Einfluss von Korrosion, Erosion, Ablagerungen, Kavitation und thermischen Wechselbeanspruchungen.Die vorliegende Arbeit wurde in die Schwerpunkte, (a) Systemanalyse des geothermischen Gesamtsystems, (b) Klassifizierung der Schäden des geothermischen Gesamtsystems auf Grundlage einer Umfrage mit mitteleuropäischen Geothermie - Anlagenbetreibern, (c) experimentelle Fluiduntersuchungen zur Beschreibung von Korrosions- und Ablagerungsraten für den Standort der Medizinischen Hochschule Hannover, (d) probabilistische Modellierung der Ausfallswahrscheinlichkeit und Ausfallszeiten der Anlagenteile und die hieraus resultierenden Auswirkungen auf die Gesamtanlage und (e) Zusammenstellung von Handlungsempfehlungen, untergliedert.Die Aggregate wie: Förderbohrungen, Tauchkreiselpumpe und Wärmeüberträger im primären Kreislauf, zeigen die größten Abhängigkeiten, bezüglich eines wirtschaftlichen Anlagenbetriebs des geothermischen Gesamtsystems auf.Durch die Verwendung von hochlegierten Werkstoffen in Kombination mit Inhibitoren kann ein langfristiger Betrieb gewährleistet werden. Druckverluste und Ablagerungen im primären Kreislauf können durch eine Beschichtung der Förderbohrung reduziert werden. Durch die kontinuierliche messtechnische Überwachung des primären Kreislaufs, können frühzeitig Gegenmaßnahmen eingeleitet werden, um einen kontinuierlichen Produktionsbetrieb zu gewährleisten. ····· 10361193113

Seilbahnunternehmen - Verantwortlich für die Region? DrostenDoktorarbeit

····· lezzter Preis 34.80€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Seilbahnunternehmen stehen als Leitbetriebe des alpinen Tourismus gerade in Zusammenhang mit dem Klimawandel und den Umweltauswirkungen des Skitourismus immer wieder in der Kritik. Gleichzeitig sind sie Meinungsbildner und beeinflussen mit ihren Aktivitäten maßgebend die regionale Entwicklung. Das vorliegende Buch zeigt, dass die Kritik an den wahrgenommenen Verantwortungsstrukturen und der gesellschaftlichen Rolle der Unternehmen oftmals vorbeigeht. Gleichzeitig diskutiert es, wie seilbahnunternehmerisches Engagement vor dem Hintergrund einer Corporate Regional Responsibility (CRR) ausdifferenziert und optimiert werden könnte. Es werden Wege aufgezeigt, wie CRR sowohl den Nutzen für die Gesellschaft als auch für die Unternehmen und die Gesamtregion erhöhen kann und so einen Beitrag zu einer nachhaltigen Regionalentwicklung leistet. Die Publikation wendet sich an WissenschaftlerInnen, PraktikerInnen und Behörden, denen die Themen Nachhaltige Regionalentwicklung und Regionale Unternehmensverantwortung ein Anliegen sind und die sich speziell mit Fragen des Alpinen Skitourismus auseinandersetzen. Dieses Buch wurde 2015 und 2016 mit dem Walter-Christaller-Preis des Deutschen Verbandes für Angewandte Geographie, dem Förderungspreis der Österreichischen Geographischen Gesellschaft und dem Graf-Chotek-Hochschulpreis der Tiroler Sparkasse in der Kategorie Nachhaltigkeit ausgezeichnet. ····· 10361205397

Se presenta un análisis de la variación de la señal de marea a lo largo del Caribe Mexicano y su relación con fenómenos de frecuencia subinercial (elevación del mar, cambios de presión atmosférica). El estudio se concreta a las componentes de marea M2 y K1 y se analiza su variación en observaciones de corriente y de nivel del mar. El comportamiento de la marea en el caribe mexicano es complejo debido a que las amplitudes en la región son muy pequeñas de tipo micromareal (0-15 cm), además de ser una región muy dinámica, tanto por las condiciones meteorológicas y oceanográficas prevalecientes. Los datos fueron obtenidos en 2 cruceros oceanográficos del proyecto CANEK. Para las corrientes se contó con 2 años de datos (2002-2004) a partir de 7 anclajes de medición de corrientes con ADCPs (Acoustic Current Doppler Profiler), y para la presión subsuperficial se contó con 6 sensores de presión a lo largo del Caribe Mexicano y uno en Cabo San Antonio, Cuba. ····· 103611369

Factor de Erosividad de la Lluvia en Colombia

für 35.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Este libro es el resultado de un trabajo de investigación que comprende la estimación del factor de erosividad de la lluvia en Colombia. El cálculo de este factor requiere de registros pluviográficos que permiten identificar la variación de la intensidad de la lluvia en períodos cortos de tiempo. Como este tipo de información es escaso en el país, se utilizó una metodología denominada cascadas aleatorias cuyo origen es la teoría de la turbulencia y que se basa en la estructura fractal de los campos de lluvia con el fin de desagregar esta variable en intervalos de tiempo inferiores a los registrados. Se validó con 6 estaciones pluviográficas en la región central y occidental de Antioquia, y se aplicó posteriormente a 134 estaciones pluviométricas distribuidas en gran parte del territorio nacional. A partir de allí se encontró una relación de tipo exponencial entre la precipitación promedio anual y el factor de erosividad promedio dando como resultado un mapa de esta variable para todo el país. ····· 103612787

El estudio de los procesos morfodinámicos en desembocaduras, es decir, la interacción entre hidrodinámica, transporte de sedimentos y evolución morfológica, es fundamental para optimizar el desarrollo de las actividades que se realizan en estos sistemas costeros. En este libro se propone una metodología basada en mediciones estacionales en campo de los forzadores climáticos, fluviales y oceanográficos y en modelación numérica de estos forzadores teniendo en cuenta su variabilidad intra-anual, para estudiar la evolución morfodinámica de desembocaduras. Esta metodología se validó en la desembocadura del río León, ubicada en el Mar Caribe Colombiano. Comparando las simulaciones de un año de evolución morfodinámica del sistema con mediciones de campo realizadas en el mismo año, se observa que con la metodología propuesta se pueden estimar con buena precisión las tasas de ingreso, salida y acumulación de sedimentos a escala intra-anual en las diferentes zonas que componen la desembocadura. ····· 103613000

En esta investigación se utiliza el paquete de modelación de acuíferos Modflow, en la cuenca del Río San Pedro, Sonora, México, teniendo como objetivo determinar el comportamiento hídrico de la cuenca, con la intención de dar pautas para su óptima utilización y manejo. Para lograr este objetivo se recabó información histórica del área de estudio obtenida de instancias como CNA, INEGI, Compañía Minera de Cananea, además de información generada ex profeso para el presente estudio. Esta última medición consistió en 6 cuantificaciones trimestrales de flujo de agua superficial en cinco puntos, y nivel estático en veinte pozos distribuidos a lo largo de la cuenca. Los resultados muestran que el acuífero se encuentra en equilibrio con tendencia en bajo grado a la pérdida de volumen de agua acumulado, aclarando que no se están tomando en cuenta los pozos explotados por la Compañía Minera. Si se sigue explotando el acuífero de la manera actual, en lo que se refiere a cantidad de agua extraída, no se corre riesgo considerable riesgo de sobreexplotación sin embargo, si se requiere aumentar la extracción, es necesario implementar sistemas de recarga artificial en las áreas crítica. ····· 1036121999

Costos externos del transporte de carga en Colombia

····· lezzter Preis 35.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
En Colombia, los grandes centros de producción y de consumo están localizados en el interior del país a gran distancia de los puertos, situación que afecta negativamente la competitividad del sector productivo. El transporte de carga nacional se puede hacer principalmente por carretera, ferrocarril, río, o estrategias de integración entre estos modos de transporte. Los estudios estratégicos de transporte de carga a escala nacional, con los cuales las entidades del Estado apoyan la toma de decisiones, habían considerado únicamente los costos percibidos por los usuarios así, el reparto modal obtenido es sin duda ineficiente en términos sociales, debido a que los agentes no perciben la totalidad de los costos inherentes a cada modo de transporte en consideración, tales como emisiones contaminantes, ruido, accidentalidad y congestión. Por tal razón, este trabajo analiza las funciones de costos utilizadas en la modelación del transporte de carga, estima en forma empírica los parámetros de las funciones aplicables al transporte de carga nacional en los modos de transporte carretero, ferroviario y fluvial, e implementa un modelo estratégico que incluye los costos externos. ····· 1036122907

La variabilidad espacial aplicada al estudio de los suelos

····· lezzter Preis 35.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Las variaciones espaciales pueden estudiarse a través de técnicas geoestadísticas que permiten elaborar mapas y delimitar áreas de manejo homogéneo. Se ha estudiado la variabilidad de las propiedades físicas, químicas y biológicas del suelo que afectan la productividad de los cultivos, reportándose asociaciones entre éstas y el rendimiento, aunque dichas asociaciones dependen del rango de variación del parámetro y del rango en que éste afecta al rendimiento (Ortega y Flores, 1999). A pesar de la necesidad de mejorar la precisión de los ensayos que se realizan en las estaciones experimentales, generalmente no se mapean los suelos con suficiente detalle, en procura de identificar los cambios marcados en sus atributos los cuales suelen presentarse aún en cortas distancias. Por el contrario, se ha preferido disminuir la incidencia de la variabilidad del suelo en los ensayos mediante el proceso de aleatorización en los diseños experimentales, es decir, se ha intentado neutralizar el efecto de la variabilidad, pero se ha avanzado poco en su estudio como un elemento del suelo mismo y de su relación con los resultados experimentales (Beckett 1971). ····· 1036123084

En los últimos años se ha intensificado la preocupación por la variabilidad ambiental asociándola al cambio climático y al calentamiento global. Por suerte, existe larga y variada data sobre el Pacífico Sudoriental que señala que en esta área se producen oscilaciones térmicas armónicas de alrededor de 50 años y que están moduladas en su intensidad, por cambios de más largo plazo de aproximadamente 100 años y que afectan la dinámica oceánica estacional (verano-invierno), interanual (El Niño-La Niña) y periódica (periódos cálidos y fríos), con repercusiones en los patrones de distribución y abundancia de los recursos pesqueros afectando a las pesquerías de los países de la región y por ende a sus economías. En este libro, se hace un análisis de los patrones normativos fundamentales y su relación con los factores de variabilidad, identificando escenarios ambientales que expliquen el comportamiento de las poblacionales y sus pesquerías, para que se administren de acuerdo a cada momento o escenario ambiental y el estado poblacional coherente con dicho momento, permitiendo hacer una planificación de la producción pesquera que evite cambios traumáticos socioeconómicos y financiero. ····· 1036123895

En la actualidad se han desarrollado importantes tecnologías de inteligencia artificial basadas en conjuntos borrosos y redes neuronales artificiales, cuyas potencialidades presentan posibilidades de ser utilizadas en el análisis espacial y en la clasificación automática de unidades de paisaje, debido a su efectividad para modelar procesos complejos no lineales y trabajar con fenómenos inciertos, imprecisos y con ruido. Estas herramientas tecnológicas aparte de ser rápidas y precisas, son de gran apoyo y utilidad para las clasificaciones realizadas por los expertos. En este Libro se utilizan procedimientos geomorfométricos, a partir del análisis de atributos topográficos en áreas montañosas, en la cual se realiza una clasificación basada en una red de agrupamiento borroso de Kohonen. Para ello se emplean un conjunto de algoritmos computarizados que permiten la extracción automática y la clasificación de propiedades morfométricas de un modelo digital de elevación y de imágenes de satélite. Los resultados evidencian que el enfoque neuro-borroso constituye una importante alternativa para la obtención de una visión más amplia e integral de la estructura de paisajes de montaña. ····· 1036124105

En este trabajo se presentan los resultados de un estudio de correlación lateral en tres localidades de la Cuenca Central de Falcón de Venezuela, donde la carencia de una sección tipo completa, la similitud litológica, presencia de capas de carbón de forma indistinta, problemas estructurales complejos y el pobre contenido de fósiles han impedido establecer la correlación. La aplicación de estadística no paramétrica (comparación de cocientes coincidentes (CCC) a una serie de atributos químicos (quimioestratigrafía), permitió en primera instancia seleccionar 8 elementos químicos como las variables para la aplicación de CCC. Los resultados de la aplicación de la herramienta estadística junto con criterios litológicos permitieron establecer correlación entre la columna litoestratigráfica de la concesión Mina La Cuesta con la de la quebrada La Paloma, específicamente hacia la base de la columna. Esto implica que la herramienta empleada permite reducir la incertidumbre inicial en la correlación, sirviendo de apoyo a otras de las técnicas utilizadas hasta el momento en este tipo de evaluaciones. ····· 10361117464

La Cuenca carbonífera de Puertollano es un yacimiento del cual se extrae actualmente carbón para la producción de energía termoeléctrica. Este se explota mediante la mina Emma , la cual cuenta con un modelo geológico el cual requería de su ampliación. Con este fin se realizó una campaña de sondeos con extracción de ripios y núcleos, de los cuales se extrajo el análisis litológico y el estudio de sus propiedades físicas, información utilizada para la correlación de datos entre sondeos. Adicionalmente se interpretaron registros de pozos adquiridos en sondeos antiguos, cuya posición coincidía con el área de estudio: se analizaron los parámetros de radioactividad natural y densidad, discriminando con gran exactitud la presencia de las capas de carbón. Haciendo uso de estas interpretaciones y tomando como base los buzamientos guías producto de las explotaciones subterráneas previas, se interpretaron las estructuras geológicas y el comportamiento de las capas de interés en perfiles transversales.

El análisis de datos hidrográficos, de nutrientes disueltos, de clorofila a y de temperatura superficial del mar recabados por radiómetros avanzados de muy alta resolución (AVHRR) revela la existencia de una surgencia a lo largo de ~400 km de la costa norte de la Península de Yucatán y ~60 km costa afuera. El agua de surgencia es Agua Subtropical Subyacente (SUW, 22°C, y salinidad de 36.8) de la Corriente de Yucatán. El SUW asciende sobre la angosta y escarpada plataforma continental cerca de Cabo Catoche, desde una profundidad de 200 m, y se dispersa en el Banco de Campeche, fluyendo hacia el Oeste paralela a la costa. Esta agua más fría con mínimas temperaturas de 22°C aparece hacia el Este del talud continental oriental de la Península de Yucatán, donde se forma un marcado frente térmico (27°C) con la Corriente de Yucatán. El afloramiento del SUW en el Banco de Campeche favorece el proceso de fertilización del agua costera, así lo indican las altas concentraciones medidas de clorofila a superficial (13 mg/m3). Los datos de temperatura superficial del mar AVHRR revelan que la surgencia es estacional, más intensa en mayo, y ésta puede perdurar hasta por cinco meses. ····· 10361137820

Se analizaron 2237 mecanismos focales (MF) para terremotos con magnitud Mw entre 4,9 y 8,8 reportados en el GCMT entre 1976 y 2010 para el margen occidental de Sur América. Usando métodos estadísticos se determinó la calidad y variabilidad de los MF y un subgrupo de 1521 MF se utilizó para calcular los tensores de esfuerzo y realizar el análisis de desajuste acumulado (F). Se encontró que las grandes regiones tectono-geológicas de los Andes del Norte, Andes Centrales y Andes del Sur pueden ser subdivididas en 13 subregiones con un nivel de confianza del 95%, y las orientaciones de los esfuerzos principales se calcularon con incertidumbres entre 5° y 30°. Se halló que existe un cambio marcado en el régimen de esfuerzo en profundidad y que los cambios temporales en los esfuerzos no se detectan tan nítidamente como los cambios espaciales. Se concluye que la tectónica presenta segmentación espacial previamente no documentada, que el análisis de calidad y variabilidad permite una resolución óptima de la orientación de los esfuerzos principales, y que al seleccionar los datos con mejor calidad y variabilidad, se obtiene una reducción de hasta 5° en F para los tensores de esfuerzo. ····· 1036123575

Die Braunkohlenindustrie in Mitteldeutschland

····· lezzter Preis 38.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Der Braunkohlenbergbau gehört in fast allen Revieren Mitteldeutschlands der Vergangenheit an. In wenigen Jahren hat sich das Landschaftsbild grundlegend verändert. Es wird nicht mehr von Fördertürmen, tiefen Tagebauen mit Baggern und Förderbrücken, kahlen Halden und Absetzern, von Abraum- und Kohlebahnen, Schwelereien, Brikettfabriken und zugehörigen Schornsteinen bestimmt, sondern von belebenden und bewachsenen Seen in mecklenburgischer Größenordnung, von Landwirtschaft auf ehemaligen Kippenflächen und von Wald auf Hochhalden. Mit diesem einzigartigen Landschaftswandel und ökologischen Lebensgewinn drohen freilich Braunkohlenbergbau und -industrie weithin in Vergessenheit zu geraten. Obwohl sie doch einst der wirtschaftliche Herzschlag Mitteldeutschlands waren, ihnen Zehntausende ihre Arbeitsplätze wie Existenz verdankten und der Osten Deutschlands davon nach 1945 schicksalhaft gezehrt hat!Aber Erinnerung ist möglich, Bergbau und Braunkohlenindustrie haben bleibende Spuren hinterlassen - nicht nur eindrucksvolle museale Zeugnisse, auch die Bergbaufolgelandschaft selbst mit ihren Tiefbau-Senungsgebieten, Tagebaurestlöchern, Abraumhalden bleibt dem Auge erkennbar und ist ungleich abwechslungsreicher, als es die alten Siedlungsböden der Leipziger Tieflandsbucht vor ihrer Zerstörung gewesen sind. So bietet sich heute und künftig dem Landschaftserlebnis eine vierte, die historische Dimension, zumal in den zurückliegenden 160 Jahren Braunkohlenbergbau und -industrie eine gewaltige technische und regionale Entwicklung durchlaufen haben. All dies, die ganze historische Technik der Braunkohlengewinnung und -verarbeitung sowie die einzelnen Reviere Mitteldeutschlands, erfasst die vorliegende Publikation im Überblick, bietet damit ein abschließendes Kompendium dieses ehedem dominanten Wirtschaftszweiges im mitteldeutschen Raum. Die geologischen Verhältnisse der Braunkohle bestimmen u. a. die technische Entwicklung der Braunkohlengewinnung und die Standorte der Braunkohlenwerke sowie deren Verschiebung im Lauf der Zeit. In der Geschichte der Bergbauechnik sind Tiefbau und Tagebau zu unterscheiden, eingeordnet in eine wechselvolle Geschichte in Abhängigkeit von den geologischen Verhältnissen und der Entwicklung der Technik. Die Verarbeitung der geförderten Braunkohle erfolgte - jeweils mit eigenständiger technischer Entwicklung - in der chemischen Braunkohlenveredelung (Schwelerei, Montanwachserzeugung), der mechanischen Braunkohlenveredelung (Nasspresssteinproduktion, Brikettierung) und der Erzeugung von Elektroenergie. Wie kein zweiter ist dafür Otfried Wagenbreth als emeritierter Professor der TU Freiberg und verdienstvoller Verfasser zahlreicher geowissenschaftlicher, montanhistorischer und denkmalpflegerischer Publikationen für die Autorenschaft berufen. Das Werk ist zur Veranschaulichung der Prozesse mit etwa 100 Zeichnungen aus der Hand des Autors und rund 80 historischen Aufnahmen ausgestattet. Der Band entstand unter Mitarbeit und maßgeblicher Begleitung von Andreas Berkner, Professor der Geowissenschaften an der Universität Leipzig, Leiter der Regionalen Planungsstelle beim Regionalen Planungsverband Leipzig-Westsachsen und Autor der dem Band beiliegenden Laudatio. Das Buch entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit weiteren Autoren, die zahlreiche Informationen zu den einzelnen Revieren zusammengetragen haben: Gerald Fröhlich, Joachim Fröhlich, Wolfgang Karpe, Günter Krumbiegel, Gerhard Liehmann, Rüdiger Mierzwa, Günther Müller, Manfred Müller, Eckhard Oelke, Andreas Ohse, Rudolf Priemer und Rainer Ullmann. ····· 10361170340

Raum, Tourismus, Kultur DrostenDoktorarbeit

····· lezzter Preis 39.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
`Der Raum hier, das sind ich, das Boot und die Weite` - Fahrtensegeln ist ein besonderes Freizeiterlebnis. Das Buch nähert sich ihm aus kulturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive und lässt den seglerischen Meeresraum mittels zahlreicher Informanten-Aussagen lebendig werden und selbst sprechen. Damit leistet es einen intensiven, vielschichtigen und für Segler wie Nichtsegler gleichermaßen unterhaltsamen Beitrag zur Kultur des (Fahrten-)Segelns. Es löst empirisch ein, was vielfach gefordert wird: die Bestimmung des Räumlichen und dessen Rolle für die soziale Praxis. Mit der praxeologischen Perspektive wird die im Unklaren belassene dritte Dimension von Lefebvres Triade der sozialen Raumproduktion - der gelebte Raum - nicht nur eindeutig konturiert, sondern mit Inhalt gefüllt und dem Leser nahe gebracht. Im dynamischen Geflecht des seglerischen Raumes werden sowohl die geschichts- und traditionsreiche Kultur der Seemannschaft als auch die egalitären Communitas-Erfahrungen von Crew und Seglergemeinschaft gelebt und weiterentwickelt. In der Liminoidität des Meeres wird der Segler auf seine eigene Handlungskompetenz verwiesen und gleichzeitig lose in eine identitäts- und zusammengehörigkeitsstiftende Gemeinschaft eingebunden. Mit Bezug auf Foucaults und Lefebvres Vorstellungen `anderer` Räume wird das `Segelrevier Dänische Südsee` als ein postmoderner Tourismusraum konzipiert, der den Seglern Erfahrungen von Alterität und authentischem Selbstsein ermöglicht. Als Heterotopie verkörpert es einen alltagsabgewandten, antistrukturellen Erfahrungs- und Möglichkeitsraum. Seemannschaft, als Form raumspezifischen Wissens, reglementiert den Zugang zur Heterotopie des Fahrtensegelns und zur Gemeinschaft der Fahrtensegler. ····· 10361205393

Understanding groundwater chemistry using statistics techniques

····· lezzter Preis 39.90€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In numerous coastal aquifers, particularly in semi-arid and arid regions, the salinization of groundwaters is of strategic water resource importance, since it places limitations of the use of the water for urban water supply and agricultural use. The hydrochemical differentiation of the salinization processes is very complex as there is considerable hydrochemical variability due to superposition of different processes: marine intrusion, recycling of wastewaters, continental saltwater contribution and pollution phenomena by agricultural activities. In this book, we try to describe the hydrological processes in the Korba coastal plain (NE of Tunisia) using hydrochemical data, correlation matrices and factor analysis to provide evidence of salinization processes. The application of Multivariate Statistics Techniques based on Principal component Analysis and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis has lead to the corroboration of the hypotheses developed from the hydrochemical study. Two factors were found that explained major hydrochemical processes in the aquifer. These factors reveal the existence of an intensive intrusion of seawater and mechanisms of nitrate contamination of groundwater. ····· 1036125249

Analysis of Glacio-Morphological Features by Remote Sensing Techniques

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Glaciers are widely recognised to be sensitive climatic indicators and serve as a thermometer. The study of glacier dynamics is intimately related to the complex mountain-climate system and integrates with climatic effects spatially and temporally. However, the regular monitoring of glaciated terrains becomes difficult because of their inaccessibility and hindrance in collection of data through field methods. Thus, Remote Sensing and GIS serve as a useful technique to catalogue the changes in the glacier and understanding the climate change phenomenon. The results in this study show that satellite data can be used for extracting the quantitative and qualitative parameters of glaciers. The analysis of satellite imageries has led to the identification of various geomorphological features, consequently revealing the global climate change scenario and its long-term implications. ····· 1036119

Using Gis to Prospect for Renewable Energy in Nigeria

Two major challenges facing the world and Nigeria in particular are the need to satisfy the escalating demand for energy, and also deal with the degrading environmental impacts of energy production and usage. Green energy investments have been proposed as a viable solution to this energy crisis, however, a major factor hindering the comprehensive design and assessment of solar and wind energy conversion systems is adequate information on the solar radiation characteristics and wind pattern of the region in which the systems are to be located. This study, focused on Nigeria, investigated, in a geographic information system, the spatial and seasonal variation in wind and solar energy over Nigeria, using the United States National Aeronautical Space Agency s surface meteorology and solar energy (version 6) dataset. Comparing ground measured and satellite derived data at 35 locations within Nigeria, the study concluded that remote sensing is a reliable method for analyzing solar energy for this data sparse region. The book is designed to provide a knowledge base for scientists to launch major national initiatives to promote the design of site-specific wind and solar energy systems. ····· 1036132

Spatial Analysis of Suicide Attack Incidences in Kabul City

In the last two decades, suicide bombings became quite common among some communities in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, India, Sri Lanka, USA, and a few African and European countries. The modeling of reported suicide bombings has been the subject of a few studies, but the pattern of incidents turned out to be difficult to assess. Nevertheless, to uncover the bombing patterns in past incident locations is of major importance because it can improve social security and save human lives. It is believed that most of the Suicide Attack, with few exceptions, happens with long term planning and preparation from the offender`s side to attack the target people at a specific geographic location and time. The Capital city of Afghanistan, Kabul, has experienced on average around one suicide attack in every month since 2001. The overall objective of this study is to characterize the spatial and temporal patterns of suicide attack incidences occurred in Kabul City since 2006 to 2010. ····· 10361179

Since the 1970`s, it has been possible to recieve radiometric data from meteorological and earth resource satellites that allow us to analyze the interaction between the solar radiation and ocean, atmosphere and land properties. Landcover information constitutes key environmental information for many scientific, resource management and policy purposes, as well as for a range of human activities. It is important that it has become a major focus for international Geo-sphere Program(IGBP)and International Human Dimension Program. The study of this conversions necessitates the use of remote sensing because it provides data at synoptic scales and facilities of large-scale ecosystem patterns. Although remote sensing technology has been used for mapping in ghana for sometime now, there have been no attempts to use the unsupervised or supervised classification methods for NOAA/AVHRR images for the whole of Ghana.

Swift transformations occurring at earth-atmosphere interface has made it imperative to characterise land surface parameters to assess the long-term changes in vegetation amount. Rapid urbanisation, deforestation and subsequent land degradation has impacted the exchange of radiant energy between earth surface and the atmosphere ultimately resulting in substantial changes in the land surface parameters at local, regional and global level. Arid and semi-arid ecosystems play significant role in determining the intricacies of earth-atmosphere interactions and ultimately affecting the global climatic mechanisms. Long term studies to characterise the vegetation condition and environmental changes taking place at the boundary of earth s surface and the atmosphere in these environments is hence gaining importance world over. Land Surface Characterisation in arid and semi arid regions of Rajasthan is an attempt to derive land surface parameters using satellite remote sensing data and develop an operational methodology for continuous monitoring of vegetation degradation in arid and semi-arid regions of Rajasthan. ····· 103611020

Estudio del Ácido Metanosulfúrico y su relación con la actividad solar

La actividad solar ha sido propuesta como un factor externo del cambio climático. La variabilidad solar asociada a fenómenos tales como la irradiancia solar total y los rayos cósmicos podrían cambiar el balance de la radiación terrestre y por tanto, el clima en particular los rayos cósmicos a través de su efecto en el albedo nuboso. Sin embargo, los procesos biológicos también han sido propuestos como otro factor de cambio climático mediante su impacto en el albedo nuboso. En este trabajo usaremos el análisis de wondeleta para investigar la relación entre concentraciones de ácido metanosulfúrico (MSA) de altas latitudes, un producto de las algas marinas, y la irradiancia solar total (IST). Aquí encontramos que el MSA del Hemisferio Norte presenta una fuerte relación con la IST en ~22 años, y el MSA del Hemisferio Sur en ~11 años. Además, el MSA presenta en escalas de tiempo que coinciden con el ciclo de manchas solares de 11 años una correlación negativa con la IST, que podría favorecer una retroalimentación positiva con el clima. Los resultados sugieren que la IST tiene la posibilidad de alterar el clima indirectamente, a través de sus efectos en los procesos biológicos. ····· 103611526

La erosión-recesión de las costas acantiladas es un fenómeno muy extendido sobre los litorales rocosos expuestos a la incidencia combinada de procesos marinos y meteorológicos. Este fenómeno se revela esporádicamente como movimientos gravitacionales del terreno, pudiendo causar pérdidas materiales y/o humanas. Aunque el conocimiento de los posibles riesgos de erosión resulta de vital importancia para la correcta gestión de la costa, su predicción es complicada. Este trabajo detalla las principales características de los modelos de recesión existentes. Además, se presentan sobre un diagrama conceptual de la recesión costera, los procesos más influyentes que geo-morfodinámicamente deben ser tenidos en cuenta a la hora de crear un modelo de recesión costera.

Drilling and blasting is one of the most economical methods used for the exploitation of economic minerals from the earth crust. Ground vibrations induced by blasting are one of the fundamental problems in the mining industry due to its consequence on structural stability of buildings, socio-economical and the public involvement. Frequency is also another important parameter for the safety and stability of existing surrounding structures. There are number of vibration predictors available proposed by different researchers for the prediction of peak particle velocity (PPV) and to calculate safe charge for smooth and trouble free blasting but all the predictors are mainly based on parameters, like explosive charge used per delay and distance from the blast face to monitoring point. However, frequency prediction has been ignored while calculating the safe charge. It is well known that blast vibration is influenced by rock, explosive and blast design parameters. This book deals with assessment of the existing predictors capability vis-à-vis application of soft computing tool to compute the PPV and frequency based on rock, blast design and explosive parameters. ····· 1036119323

Estimates of sediment and nutrient yields in conjunction with erosion modelling are essential to issues of land and water management, including sediment transport and storage in lowland reservoirs, estuaries, irrigation and hydropower systems. The purpose of this project was to investigate and show the feasibility of using GIS techniques in the analysis of sediment and nutrient yields. In this case study the emphasis was on the spatio-temporal distribution of sediments and nutrient yields. GIS overlay techniques were used to compute various maps showing spatial distribution of nutrients and sediments with time. GIS interpolation enabled estimation of yields in areas without measurements. Lastly, an erosion hazard analysis using the SLEMSA model was undertaken in a GIS environment to produce an erosion hazard potential map. GIS proved to be a powerful, efficient and capable tool especially in the analysis of sediment and nutrient yields for an agro- rural watersheds which sometimes are remote and inaccessible. The powerful GIS interpolation techniques provided a way to overcome data gathering challenges in such areas. ····· 1036121037

Air quality and atmospheric dynamics in Mediterranean Tunisian regions

During summer period, PM10 and ozone concentration reaches its maximum values under the influence of land-sea breeze recirculation and the powerful photochemical activity. Whereas, the PM10 yearly, daily and hourly average concentration exceeds frequently the Tunisian and EU standard limits at all the sampling stations. PM10 concentrations on days with Saharan dust contribution are higher than the average daily values recorded under no influence from Saharan dust. PM10 maximum concentration is observed simultaneously over the most studied sites. Satellite imagery as well as the aerosol and dust maps evidenced dust plumes transported from North African desert reaching the Mediterranean Tunisian regions. We show that the air masses loaded with dust instigates the increase of PM10 concentration and temperature at the surface. This may be due to the green house effect and heating created by the dust layer over the Mediterranean Tunisian sites during the Saharan events. In winter season, Primary pollutants peaks were much higher than in summer which can be explained on the basis of lower ventilation in the winter and lower mixing. ····· 1036121327

Climate Simulation

It has been widely accepted that human influenced emission of green house gases are largely responsible for the climate change which we are experiencing currently. To produce detail information as a guide line for long term future climate change evolution arising from global warming, a projection approach is generally adopted to study the changes in regional climate. Regional climate modeling, as a part of down scaling techniques, to enhance the regional details due to geographical forcing is a very useful technique for over coming insufficient aspects of the GCMs such as narrow mountain ridges, complex terrain and complicated land sea contrasts. Several studies have mentioned that over the mountainous regions, the nested approach with a high resolution regional climate could improve simulation of physio-graphically relevant fields. By increasing resolution, the local effects play a significant role in the regions characterized by complex physio-graphics and are better resolved and more realistically simulated.

Actual evapotranspiration (ETa) monitoring has important implications on global and regional climate modelling. It is important for the hydrological cycle and assessment of environmental stress that affects ecosystems. Accurate measurement and estimation of ETa is a basic input used to compute water balances and to estimate water availability and requirements. Most methods for ETa computation can only provide point estimates of ETa for a specific location and fails to provide ETa on a spatial scale and makes it inadequate for proper water resource management. In this book, SEBAL model is used to estimate surface albedo, NDVI, surface temperature and ETa for different land use/cover types (closed woodlands, gallery forests, open woodlands, farmlands, water bodies, barelands, rocky areas and built-up areas) for the Atankwidi and Afram catchments in the Volta basin of Ghana. ····· 1036124606

One of the main challenges in the information extraction provided by remote sensing images is to model and to represent geographical objects that have their properties changed along the time. This thesis proposes a novel approach based on Case Based Reasoning (CBR) for describing how geospatial objects identified in remote sensing imagery evolve. Given a set of multi-temporal images, the CBR techniques and the expert knowledge in a certain application domain, the approach describes the trajectories of evolution objects. Therefore, it is possible to describe how the objects evolve by retrieving their complete evolving history. The proposed method is tested for two case studies, in the Brazilian Amazonia Forest, for describing the evolution of deforestation patterns, which can enable a better understanding of land use changes in these regions. ····· 1036125857

Optimum Crusher Location for a Quarry: A Geospatial Approach

The haulage phase has been identified as the highest contributor to the overall cost of a quarry operation, usually contributing as much as 30-60% of the total cost. As a cheaper alternative to mobile crushing suggested some previous studies, selection of an optimal location for the crusher can reduce the haulage distance between the blasting and crushing phases without exposure to risk of the blasting phase, thus reducing the overall cost of operation. This book explores the use of a data-driven Geographic-Information-System (GIS) approach for selecting the optimal location of a stationary stone crusher. Due to the difficulty of integrating the influential geographical factors (blast radius, slope and elevation) experienced by previous attempts, the methodology was developed to fully integrate geographic abstractions associated with the major quarrying phases into an appropriate Multi-criteria Decision Making model. By using a GIS based MCDM approach, this study presents a means of improving the problems of previous attempts and also presents a cheaper cost reduction strategy for a quarry operation. ····· 1036187036

The prerequisite to developing effective strategies for conserving biodiversity is a profound understanding of the taxonomy and phylogeny of all life forms. It is especially important to appreciate the significance of such studies in extinct organisms especially in organisms that were abundant in a certain geologic era, but have subsequently dwindled or become extinct. Such studies should help to understand extinction, accurately gauge the underlying causes behind loss of biodiversity and make predictions about future distribution of biodiversity. I use bio-statistical approaches to trace loss of biodiversity, and what should also serve as a starting point for conservation. My research interests encompass paleontology, geobiology, sedimentology, meteorology and paleoceanography and have implications for the petroleum industry as research could potentially uncover new oil-rich locations. ····· 1036191731

This book is about deriving areas within the Save catchment of Zimbabwe that are of equal hydrology, meaning the areas within this catchment that have similar flow charateristics. The main argument in the book are that most of the sub catchments in the area are ungauged yet flow characteristics of the rivers in the area essential for planning purposes for things like allocation or licensing of abstractions and storage of water, the development of in stream or environmental flow requirements of water, yield analysis of proposed reservoirs, for providing an estimate of the potential renewable water resource of the entire catchment. This creates the need to develop methods for estimating runoff on ungauged catchment. Flow characteristics of a river are a function of the catchment characteristics and research determined the catchment charateristics that significantly affect runoff through the use of a technique called redundancy analysis. These were then used to group the sub zones into units that are similar in character. This was done through the use of cluster analysis. Homogeneous Hyrological regions for the Save Catchment were then determined and their validity was tested. ····· 1036198309

Characterization of Compacted Expansive Clays

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The problem of expansive clay soil with regard to structural damage of buildings and roads was not recognized until the latter part of 1930. Up to now, some engineers are not familiar with certain characteristics of this soil. Many clay soils may be mistaken for expansive ones and costly structural designs be prepared for structures to be founded on them. Therefore, there is a need to characterize the soil for ease of identification. In this regard, Dr. M Ndegwa points out that expansive soil can be easily identified through local climate, vegetation, ground topography, physical features of soil and simple laboratory tests. This book defines expansive soil, its occurrence, formation, mineralogical and chemical structure. The author explains the swelling behaviour of clay soil and discusses factors that influence actual amount of swell or shrinkage, concepts of swelling, modes of swelling and mechanisms of swelling. The classification and identification of this soil type including its compaction characteristics are also described. Finally, evaluation of swelling potential is discussed. Students of Civil Engineering and Practising Engineers will find this book very resourceful. ····· 1036198589

Non-Darcy Flow and Multi-Phase Flow

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Hydraulic fracturing has recently been the completion of choice for most tight gas formations. It has proven successful to produce these formations in a commercial manner. However, some considerations have to be taken into account when designing a fracture treatment. These considerations include, but not limited to, non-Darcy flow and multiphase flow effects inside the fracture. These effects reduce the fracture conductivity significantly. Failing to account for that results in overestimating the deliverability of the wells and, consequently, to designing a fracture treatment that is not optimum. In this book a thorough investigation of non-Darcy flow and multi-phase flow effects on the productivity of hydraulically fractured gas wells is conducted and an optimum fracture design is proposed for a tight gas formation in south Texas using the Unified Fracture Design (UFD) Technique to compensate for the mentioned effects by calculating the effective fracture permeability in an iterative way. A comparison between the UFD and the most well known 3D fracture simulators is also carried out to point out the differences as far as the methodology and design considerations. ····· 1036198921

Many hill slope areas are vulnerable to soil erosion and shallow slope failures due to intense and frequent rainfall of tropical climate.In this study, Laboratory tests were performed on natural soil and soil mixed with deferent percentage of lime to improve soil properties and resistance against slope failure.When lime mixed with in-situ soil, it reduces swelling potential and shrinkage hence inhibit formation of cracks and also reduce soil s dispersibility therefore, reduce erosion possibility. Soil mixed with lime has lower permeability thus, it enhances capillary barrier effects and limits rainfall infiltration into the soil.Results show that optimum lime content to be used in the mix design is 7% by dry unit weight of soil. A two dimensional finite element model of slope was used to evaluate performance of the optimum lime soil mixed as capillary barrier. The analysis revealed that the optimum thickness of slope cover system in capillary barrier is 30cm. Finding of this study, would contribute to a practical method of slope stabilisation and to display optimum slope cover thickness in capillary barrier effects. ····· 1036199582

Estimating Sealing Capacity of Cap Rocks

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The prediction of cap rock seals to migrating hydrocarbons on a prospect or regional scale should be based on all available geologic data. Sealing capacity of cap rocks is a direct indication of possible hydrocarbon column within the reservoir rock directly beneath the cap rock. Assessing the sealing capacity is generally done by measuring the capillary pressure of the cap rock. The objective of this work is to do a direct measurement of capillary pressure for a typical cap rock in a reservoir and correlate that with the initial hydrocarbon column. The results show that the layers with high displacement pressure are indeed good seals for trapping hydrocarbons. Also, the measured displacement pressure is a good predictor for hydrocarbon column underneath such cap rocks. Use of capillary pressure measurements in cap rocks during the exploration phase is highly recommended. ····· 10361100196

Oil and natural gas were formed from the remains of prehistoric plant and animals. The oil and gas that formed in the source rock deep within the earth moved upward through tiny, connected pore spaces in the rocks. Reservoirs are not underground lakes of oil reservoirs are made up of porous and permeable rocks that can hold significant amounts of oil and gas within their pore spaces. Most reservoirs contain oil, gas, and water. Technological innovation makes it easier to find new deposits of oil and gas and to get more oil or gas from each reservoir that is discovered. The reservoir performance is predicted by mathematical modeling of the reservoir or reservoir simulation. The initial oil, gas, water saturation and pressure are specified. Oil Shales are usually fine-grained sedimentary rocks containing relatively large amounts of organic matter from which significant quantities of shale oil and combustible gas can be extracted. Included in most definitions of oil shale, is the potential for the profitable extraction of shale oil and combustible gas or for burning as a fuel.

Soil erosion is a wide spread phenomenon in Uganda`s Lake Victoria Basin (LVB). Choice of appropriate conservation practices depends on accurate quantification of the magnitude of damage. Variability across a toposequence on catchment level makes assessment studies technically difficult and economically not feasible. However, Geographical Information Systems (GIS) can capture spatial variability. A GIS-based Universal Soil Loss Model was initialized and used in this study to 1) validate the predicative capacity of the initialized GIS USLE model across the major land uses and soil types in the microcatchment, 2) Quantify the on-site damage in terms of soil loss, soil structure deterioration and nutrient loss. Run-off plot approach was used to collect runoff and sediment for soil and nutrient loss quantification. USLE parameters were obtained from: mean annual rainfall, soils map, Topomap, aerial photographs and satellite images using modeling operations in ILWIS. Applicability of the GIS-based USLE was demonstrated but calibration is essential. Land use had stronger influence on soil loss than slope. ····· 10361101498

Time-lapse Seismic Imaging of Coal Bed Methane Reservoir

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The primary mechanism for coal bed gas recovery at the Powder River Basin is by dewatering of the coal reservoir. Managing the produced water associated with gas recovery represents a significant issue. This book describes time-lapse crosswell seismic experiments that were designed to monitor and evaluate the spatial efficiency of the dewatering process. Results from the time-lapse tomograms show that the spatial distribution of the P-wave velocity changes approximates 6 percent above the coal as well as inside the coal layer. This difference can be attributed primarily to pore fluid saturation occasioned by the dewatering process. The observed changes are consistent with coal physics models and observations from production data and they demonstrate feasibility to monitor the reservoir production process. Results further suggest that produced water comes from the sandy-shale directly above the coal and that pressure drawdown in the coal is not spatially efficient. This book shows that time- lapse seismic can provide valuable information for reservoir process monitoring, optimization and management during reservoir production process. ····· 10361101680

Participation clauses were analysed in SADC, basin and national frameworks. At the local level three wards in Shashe subcatchment of Mzingwane catchment in Zimbabwe were selected. While provisions at the regional level lack implementation details, basin ones also fall short. Institutions created to enable local participation at the national level did not enable effective participation. Practical realities informed the submissions of how water users can meaningfully participate in transboundary water resource management. They demonstrated a desire for direct participation at the basin level and proposed a local model that challenges the existing top-down approach to participation and shows how a bottom-up approach reflects their aspirations. ····· 10361113460

Northern Area of Pakistan consists of the mountainous region, which is rich in snow cover. The concentration of snow in this area is main hydrological resource for Pakistan. Accurate mapping of snow for this area is inevitable for the forecasting of snow-melt discharge for flood control, energy production and irrigation. MODIS snow-cover product (MOD10A1) is generated through an automated procedure which detects and masks clouds from snow surface using a global default algorithm. This distinction is challenging since snow and cloud have comparable reflectance and often comparable temperatures. The accuracy of snow map depends on the accuracy of the cloud mask, that entirely relies on thresholds which may be different in different regions. In this book, development of a regional based snow mapping algorithm is discussed for Northern Pakistan using MODIS data for the period of 2000 to 2008.

Ozone variations have been a serious problem facing most scientists as its depletion continues to constitute menace to the world. Nigeria is in the tropical region where little or no research work involving solar dynamical processes effects on ozone changes has been carried out probably due to the earlier assertion that zonal winds were weak in the tropics. This work establishes that the changes in Atmospheric Angular Momentum (AAM) caused by the changes in the Length of Day (LOD) transfers ozone (O3) by means of zonal wind from the upper troposphere to the lower stratosphere in the tropics. And since O3 transportation is distinctly enhanced by the zonal winds in Nigeria, the zonal winds are not weak in the tropics. However, this work affirms that O3 variations are more pronounced in the higher than in the low latitude ····· 10361114306

Botswana`s population and water demand are growing at a high rate particularly in the dry south eastern part of the country. A Water Conservation Policy and Strategy framework document was formulated in 1999. The implementation of the strategy recommendations to guide a transition from a supply driven water management approach to that of water demand management started in 2002. Although Botswana is said to be one of the countries in the region with a good choice of policy and analytical frameworks, it is also said to lack the capacity to effectively implement them. Documentary sources and open-ended interviews were used to establish information from the three water supply authorities with particular interest in Mogobane, Otse, Ramotswa and Tlokweng villages, as well as, Lobatse town and Gaborone city. The findings of the study revealed that although some of the recommendations had been implemented, their implementation was not in the recommended order or manner. As a result, coordination and monitoring the water conservation and demand management programme through horizontal accountability is difficult to achieve. ····· 10361115471

Climate Change and Variability Adaptation Strategies

The probability of abnormal events, which threatened human and ecosystems have increased. Its impacts are already being experienced in terms of gradual increases in temperature, rainfall variability and prevalence of extreme events. To deal with climate change and variability impacts, different coping and adaptation strategies have been taken into account, but often these strategies have led to land resources degradation. This book provides the implications of such coping and adaptation strategies on land resources. It revealed land resources degradation caused by unplanned adaptation strategies particularly cultivation of riverbanks and within crater lakes, intensification of field to the forest and marginal land. This book therefore serve as a guideline for professionals in planning and implementation of adaptation measures and a baseline for future studies in climate change and variability, land resources management and agricultural production. Further it contributes in the debate of land resource management and climate change adaptation and increasing of climate change awareness and understanding amongst decision makers and development project planners. ····· 10361115549

The Vibro Displacement technique is one of the most widely-used ground improvement processes in the world, although its potential for improving Irish sites has yet to be fully exploited. Historically the system has been used to densify loose granular soils, but over the past 35 years, the system has been used increasingly to reinforce soft cohesive soils and mixed fills. This book is described the technique and history of stone columns based on numerical methods such as FEM, FDM, DEM and SPH in the world. The vibrating pore breaks down the pores of the surrounding soil, thereby densifying the soil. The crushed aggregates or the gravel that is poured in takes the place of the soil and keeps up the pressure on the soil that was created by the vibrating probe. These columns are made across the area to be built on in a grid pattern at regular intervals. ····· 10361133568

Surface temperature in urban areas of the Western province in Sri Lanka has been dramatically increased during recent years. The traditional method used to measure the temperature in Sri Lanka is ground based observation and it only reflects the thermal conditions of local area around the station. There are only two ground-based observation stations located in Colombo urban area and their findings are not adequate to analyze the spatial patterns of temperatures and surface temperature levels in entire Colombo urban areas. This book suggests an alternative methodology to find the spatial variability of surface temperature in Colombo urban areas using thermal (LANDSAT) remote sensing and would help the interesting parties to re-think the use of remote sensing in the field of spatial sciences. ····· 10361134489

The nature of the Sierra Nevada is amazing not only on the surface but also beneath it. Mountains generally have a thick crust underneath them and the lack of a thick crustal root underneath the Sierra Nevada reported by previous geophysical studies still needs to be resolved. The general crustal structure of the southern Sierra Nevada and surrounding area was examined by author through the analysis of gravity and magnetic data. A series of Bouguer gravity, low-pass and band-pass wavelength filtered gravity and reduced to the pole total magnetic intensity maps were produced to define the general tectonic features of the study area. Two regional gravity models were utilized for determining the general crustal structure of the region and the location of the denser upper mantle body under the Great Valley and the Sierra Nevada region.

Making decisions, especially when it affects the wider society, we need scientific tools to process the available data. GIS is one such tool of decision making. Application of GIS in the field of Urban Planning, in order to make the optimal decision, is being attempted in this study. Our accurate decision in planning process leads to the successful completion of our plan, while a small error in our decision leads to the entire failure of the plan. Many urban development plans in Sri Lanka unfortunately meet the end of failure or many are abandoned before completion. This is partially due to the improper identification of the prevailing condition of the land area. For a plan to be successfully implemented in an urban area, where the land use, human processes and physical setting are more complex than in a rural area, a prior identification of the vulnerable and desirable regions is a crucial task. Then only the best decisions can be made to treat the vulnerable areas and to preserve the desirable areas. Hence the objective of this study is to develop a GIS-based technology in the identification of vulnerable and desirable regions in urban areas. ····· 10361135493

Lossy hyperspectral image compression techniques are widely used to solve the problems of data size. In this book, we evaluate lossy vector quantization and JPEG2000 hyperspectral data compression algorithms using red edge indices as end-products that we want to retrieve from our data. Two airborne hyperspectral data-sets for vegetated areas were tested, one acquired from (AISA) sensor for area in Tambisan, Malaysia and the other data-set acquired from (Hyspex) sensor for agriculture area in Norway. Two red edge products: Vogelmann1 and NDVI red edge indices were retrieved from each original data cube and from their decompressed data cubes. The standard deviation of percentage difference between a product retrieved from an original data cube and that from its decompressed data cube was used as a measure to quantify the impact of compression on end products. The minimum, maximum and average values of the original and compressed data were also used to quantify the differences in the red edge products. ····· 10361135562

Soil erosion is a critical problem in the Amhara Regional State. Being part of this, soil erosion at Debre Mewi Watershed has occurred at an alarming rate. Estimating soil erosion, identifying erosion hot spot areas & setting priorities are needed by agencies involved in development works of the watershed to plan & implement soil and water conservation measures. To perform these, the study integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with a Geographic Information System (GIS). Knowledge of runoff due to rainfall is most important for designing any water harvesting structures. Direct measurement of runoff is always good but time consuming, labors and expensive. Therefore, remote sensing technology and GIS combined with runoff models, SCS-CN model, which are less time and labor intensive were used in rainfall-runoff estimation. After estimating runoff amount in the watershed, suitable water harvesting sites were identified considering both social and technical aspects. This research output is therefore critically useful to professionals working in the areas of natural resource conservation and management, soils characterization, Water harvesting, GIS & Remote Sensing. ····· 10361135721

In the present thesis, a new chamber (the CoLlision Ice Nucleation CHamber, CLINCH) was developed to study two important processes that take place within a cloud. The first process studied was the collection efficiency (E) between submicron aerosol particles (0.05 and 0.33 m) and cloud droplets (12.8 and 20.0 m). The collection efficiency was determined by either maintaining a fixed droplet size and varying the particle size or vice-versa. The second process studied with CLINCH was the freezing of cloud droplets due to contact freezing. Kaolinite was chosen to test ice nucleation of cloud droplets of 25.7 m in diameter. The ice nucleation ability was addressed by varying the kaolinite particle size, the aerosol concentration and temperature.

An investigates the October to December rainfall variability over the mainland region of southeastern Africa in relation to El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean Dipole/Zonal Mode (IODZM) for the period 1950 to 1999 revealed that the north-south aligned areas of the eastern SADC are located in different co-variability regions. This meridionally aligned dipole rainfall anomaly configuration is captured only in the dominant principal component making it possible for the opposing rainfall anomalies of the two regions to have a common trigger. However, ENSO which has typically been invoked as the main cause for significant rainfall variability over this region cannot adequately explain this dipole rainfall anomaly pattern. The analyses strongly indicate that the positive IODZM phase events lead to a rainfall dipole such that floods occur over the north east of the region (around Tanzania) at the same time as droughts over the south east of the region (Zimbabwe, northern South Africa). Contrary to conventional knowledge, the ENSO association to this dipole rainfall anomaly pattern is not robust but appears to be the result of the well known ENSO-IODZM connection ····· 10361146512

The type of cadastral survey technique to be used requires technical knowledge and capacity, which should strike a balance between accuracy, cost, value of the property and resources available. Most disputes among holders of land are more related to the accuracy of cadastral surveying techniques. In contrast, the cost of surveying techniques is the major factor for a country with poor economy. Balancing these issues will be difficult for a country which has not yet implemented a modern cadastral system and has no standard surveying techniques. This book, therefore, provides a systematic accuracy test for two surveying techniques used for land registration. Handheld GPS receiver and high resolution satellite image are compared with real time kinematic (RTK) GPS. The comparisons are made for the area and coordinate of the parcel by calculating its relative percentage error and root mean square error respectively. This analysis should support any decision to choose a standard cadastral surveying technique for a country, and should be especially useful to professionals in Cadastral Surveying and Mapping fields. ····· 10361147413

Shelter Effect of Porous Wind Fences

····· lezzter Preis 49.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The wind erosion and loss of material in an open storage yard is of very importance. To reduce the erosion and loss fences are provided on the periphery of the yard. The fence has to be properly designed so that the length of the shelter effect has to be large. Along with the length the turbulence created because of the obstruction must also be known to have a proper fence system. In this present study experiments have been conducted to find the length of the shelter effect of the fences in terms of reattachment length. Both solid and porous fences are considered for the study. The porosity is provided as circular holes in the plate. Solid fence i.e., with 0% porosity and 20% porosity are considered for the experimental study. Different gap ratios of 0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 are also tested for the above fences. Numerical studies are done for porosities of 0%, 20%, 25% and 40%. The results of 0% and 20% were validated with the experimental results. The turbulence created was incorporated in numerical studies by using turbulence models. Eight different turbulence models were tested. ····· 1036188043

CaFe: Cellular Automata - Fuzzy Engine

····· lezzter Preis 49.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
There is a wide variety of Urban Growth models all of which pose limitations to their computational application. In this book, a modeling framework is described that is open and adaptable to the user`s requirements, easy to use and resilient to the case study limitations. The CaFe model (Cellular Automata - Fuzzy Engine) applies an innovative workflow to connect the input and the output variables. All input variables are merged in a single thematic layer using the Sensitive Sum operator. It is a new fuzzy operator that employs a dynamic parallel connection between the input variables while taking into account their statistical correlation. As a result, the model does not require certain variables/data to run while it implements a reducible/extensible form of Knowledge Base which can include both data-driven and empirical rules. The simulation engine incorporates advanced Cellular Automata techniques which apply spatio-temporal multi-radius transition functions and support action in distance. CaFe is applied in Athens - Greece and simulates urban growth efficinetly while scoring high fitting indicators and retaining a stable average error. ····· 10361115763

Application of Geostationary Satellites in Forest Fire Detection

····· lezzter Preis 49.00€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Remote sensing has been widely used in active forest fire detection however there are some limitations in the operational contextual algorithms. These algorithms are greatly affected by clouds and different land cover types such as land and water with inherent temperatures. This book, therefore, provides a new multi-temporal threshold algorithm for near real-time forest fire detection using geostationary satellites, supplemental to the existing algorithms. This algorithm is based on temperature in IR3.9 channel and the difference between IR3.9 and IR10.8 channels. The multi-temporal threshold algorithm proved to have higher fire detection rate (50%) as compared to MSG FIR-G (3.7%) when ground data from Portugal was used for validation. This superiority was also confirmed over Southern Africa when MODIS fire product was used for validation. This analysis shows the possibility of manipulating the temporal domain of geostationary satellites in monitoring highly temporal environmental phenomenon. This algorithm could be especially useful to professionals in forest fire management, or anyone else who may be interested in applying geostationary satellites in environmental monitoring. ····· 10361131832

Although 40 million people lived in West Africa with 4% in cities in 1930, in 1990 there were about 190 million with 40% being in cities. Projected figures for 2020 indicate that 63% of the estimated population of 430 million will be found in urban cities. Nigeria is not exempted from this scenario. Providing food and fiber for the population will be a burden to all.This publication contains selected refereed research papers from the Alexander Von Humboldt international conference held in Nigeria in December, 2010. The research papers cover several disciplines from the sciences, social sciences, and humanities to policy studies.The first chapter contained the paper on urban governance. It dealt with urban resources and their environment to problems with Nigeria cities and prescribed the way forward. The paper that followed was on the role of primary agriculture in processing and nutrition in urban food security. It looked at the historical antecedents of urbanization and the strategies for improved food and nutrition security in urban cities. About four papers examined the issues surrounding climate change and building green productive cities. Case studies were presented and their implications were analyzed.There were other papers on urban waste management in different parts of Nigeria. The challenges of thermal discomfort and heat stress were highlighted with implication for building design. There were research reports on urban health complications in cities which gave comprehensive analysis of the magnitude of such burden if associated constraints were not tackled.There were other papers dealing with environmental hazards which drew attention to the environmental sanitation level and the nature or water and food hygiene. Finally there was a paper that examined the issues surrounding desertification and lessons to be learnt from experiences of Israel, Turkey and Egypt. ····· 10361193043

Aufgrund der immer weiter fortschreitenden Zerstörung archäologischer Fundstellen weltweit, wurde die geophysikalische Prospektion in den letzten Jahrzehnten ein wesentliches Verfahren der archäologischen Feldforschung. Sie rt eine schnelle, großflächige und vor allem zerstörungsfreie Untersuchung dieser Denkmäler. Dabei kommen als Verfahren hauptsächlich die sogenannte Magnetometer-, die Widerstandsprospektion und das in diesem Werk betrachtete Bodenradar zum Einsatz. Seit wenigen Jahren lässt sich nun auch das Satellitenradar für die archäologische Prospektion einsetzen. Der Vorteil des Radars in diesem Forschungsbereich ist die sehr hohe räumliche Auflösung der Ergebnisse, die dreidimensionale Abbildung der Befunde sowie die Unabhängigkeit von nahegelegenen technischen Störkörpern. In diesem Buch werden die aus geophysikalischer Sicht relevantesten Einflussfaktoren auf die Ergebnisse der Bodenradar-Messung analysiert und anhand konkreter Messbeispiele aus Bayern und der Türkei veranschaulicht. Im Abschnitt des Satellitenradars wird anhand zweier Testgebiete in Syrien gezeigt, dass trotz einer sehr hohen Sensorfrequenz eine Eindringtiefe des Signals in den Boden und damit eine Detektion untertägiger Befunde möglich ist. Insgesamt werden hier somit die Möglichkeiten des Radars in der Archäologie aufgezeigt. ····· 10361107967

Model for Analysis of Slope Failure Initiation and Debris Flow Run-out

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Progressive erosion and block landslides, especially soil slips within volcanic channels and other steep hillslopes, can be triggered by intense, brief rainfall and other types of storm. Consequently, rainfall analysis is the method most commonly used in forecasting such phenomena, and worldwide observations have contributed to identifying critical levels of rainfall, over given periods of time, for triggering debris flow. These analyses, however, inadequately address the complex combination of physical, hydrological processes and the mechanical analysis of slope stability. More particularly, the location of debris flow initiation has been analyzed only rarely within the context of this methodology. In fact, because debris flows generally exhibit high mobility and long run-out travel distances, resulting in extensive property damage and significant loss of life, it is essential that we understand the temporal and spatial probability of debris flow initiation when planning preventive measures and evacuation systems. This book proposed a model to simulate rain water infiltration on slope instability and travel distance of debris flow run-out. ····· 10361587

The ArcView Soil and Water Assessment Tool was used to evaluate the potential environmental benefits the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) in the Beaver River watershed, Texas County, Oklahoma. The SWAT model was used to simulate erosion rates and related stream water quality. Calibration results using monthly predicted values generally matched well with the observed values of two USGS gage stations in the watershed. The simulated sediment yield was inversely proportional to the CRP areas, with an overall 30% reduction in annual sediment yield. Sediment yield was highest from wheat, general agriculture and corn fields. Mapping sediment yield determined priority areas for future CRP enrollment. Correlation analysis revealed a good inverse relationship between sediment yield and areas under CRP. Wheat fields accounted for about 71% of total phosphorus and 77% of total nitrogen lost in Texas County. Results from Patch Analyst showed an increase in grassland area, a decrease in number of patches, and an increase in average patch size. Analysis of changes in landscape structure indicated that CRP can potentially improve the quality and quantity of wildlife habitat. ····· 10361695

Since the groundwater is found mostly contaminated by nitrate by previous researches, the study of intrinsic vulnerability of groundwater should be generated in order to delineate groundwater protection zone in these areas. This study has been conducted with two main objectives. First, is to determine the intrinsic vulnerability index of groundwater using two different methods, namely DRASTIC method (Aller et al., 1987) and Hoelting method (Hoelting et al., 1995). Second, is to evaluate the suitability of the method for the study area using nitrate which is believed to be a conservative ion in groundwater. Therefore, all important parameters have to be collected both from previous research and field data investigation such as geology, hydrogeology, hydrology, and water sample from well then proceed and analysed to build the intrinsic vulnerability map and the evaluation. ····· 103613489

Climate Change-induced Conflict

Evidence on climate change impact has mounted through time and it is widely argued that the consequences of climate change are likely to result in an increased vulnerability in human security. The aim of this research was to map available evidence on climate-induced conflict, critically appraising literature and synthesizing the results by categorizing articles according to their theme. There are very few researches oriented to deal with the issue of climate-induced conflict. Evidence on climate/weather-induced conflict is more theoretically than empirically driven. A few of the empirical studies included were statistically and methodologically rigorous to analyze the links between climate change and conflict, however, the sample sizes and the time periods looked at were too short to support the arguments made. There is a shortage of meaningful evidence and too much uncertainty on the links between climate change and conflict. Therefore, much in depth empirical investigation which links the two variables in relation to other social dimensions such as poverty and livelihood security is required before generalizing and making predictions about climate change and conflict. ····· 103613593

Simulation Study of Underground Gas Storage

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Underground gas storage (UGS) involves storage of large quantities of natural gas in a storage horizon to support the natural gas demand in domestic, commercial, and industrial areas. The main objectives of this book are to investigate the possibility of (UGS) development and feasibility of underground sour gas storage in a depleted fractured gas reservoir. Compositional simulation was employed to build a dynamic reservoir model, develop the history-matching phase of the reservoir, and construct injection/withdrawal (I/W) cycles. A systematic procedure was employed to determine optimum well pattern (well number, location, horizontal, vertical). Simulation study specified that the use of horizontal well is superior to vertical well because of less water production during storage cycles. Water cut, productivity and injectivity indexes of individual wells were considered as prominent factors to find the optimum well pattern. The results of the simulation showed that the presence of H2S and CO2 in the injected gas stream improved condensate production. It was found that UGS reservoir meet lower pressure at the end of I/W cycles in the case of underground sour gas storage. ····· 1036118781

Change detection is one of the most important applications in the remote sensing society. In change detection, pan sharpening fusion plays an important role to create a high-resolution dataset. A pansharpening method for enhancing satellite imagery is used as building a relatively high accuracy and low cost approach for image-based analyses. In this work, Pan sharpening Gram Schmidt technique is applied for enhancing certain features which are not visible in either of the single data alone. To perform the fusion, a low spatial resolution multi-spectral image of MODIS is fused with higher resolution single band image of AWiFS of same date using different method of pan-sharpening and evaluated that Gram Schmidt method is best method. Both images are fused for same geographical area and have almost same time acquisition of lower and middle Himalaya, Himachal Pradesh, India. Then improved change vector analysis is used as change detection technique. This method performed in two stages: in first stage double- window flexible pace search (DFPS), which aims at determining the threshold of change magnitude, and in second stage, the direction cosines of change vectors for determining. ····· 1036120158

Ecuador is prone to natural hazards due to its geographic location and by man-made events. Effective disaster risks management requires timely and reliable access to a wide range of geo-spatial data by actors.Ecuador has national institutions that manage geo-spatial data. Risk management is a component that several institutions are paying attention for its importance in the development. In the fall of 2002, several institutions of the State agreed to promote the creation of Geo-Informatics National Board-CONAGE, with the goal to promote the orderly production of geo-spatial data, to formulate national politics, to promote the use and access of this information.The study explores whether the initiative of creating a NSDI could be of help for the actors that play an active role on disaster risk management.It concludes that the initiative of developing a NSDI may indeed be helpful to disaster risk management because most actors involved address multi-hazards and have many data in common specifically basic data. The study recommends that the main proponent of the current NSDI initiative will regularly assess how far the end-users of geo-spatial data are satisfied in their requirements. ····· 1036189206

This book on Magnetostratigraphy of the sedimentary sequences of Himalayan foot-hills presents various aspects of the Earth s magnetic field. Palaeomagnetism has brought many changes in the development and understanding of the Earth Sciences in last 40 years. This has led finding of a new type of stratigraphy based on the aperiodic reversal of polarity of the geomagnetic field, which is known as Magnetostratigraphy. Magnetic Polarity Stratigraphy is the study of organizing the sedimentary strata according to the magnetic polarities acquired during the process of sediment accumulation. In front of the Himalayas a foredeep was formed due to the collisional event of Indian plate with Eurasian plate. Molasse sedimentary material has been deposited in this foredeep, which is known as Siwalik Basin. Beautiful stream sections expose the outcrops at Himachal Pradesh, India. Two sections selected to find out the age as well as the rotational event within the Himalayan foot-hills. The age of these two sections ranged from 12.90 to 2.5 Ma. These sections have undergone a clockwise rotation of 3° and 6° which can be attributed to the local tectonics and/or collisional event. ····· 1036198660

Carbonaceous aerosols, an ubiquitous component of Earth s atmosphere, contribute ~20-70% of total aerosol mass over urban regions and affect radiation budget, hydrological cycle and climate on a regional to global scale both via direct and indirect effects. The formation of secondary aerosols, in conjunction with the airborne particles of primary origin, has been recently recognized as a dominant process contributing to air pollution over urban areas. In addition, secondary aerosols are more hygroscopic and play an important role in the modification of the cloud activation processes by acting as cloud-condensation nuclei (CCN). Therefore, understanding chemical characteristics of primary emission sources and secondary aerosol formation is critical to evaluate their role in the modification in absorption properties and CCN activities. This book investigates the chemical composition, microphysical and absorption properties of carbonaceous aerosols over the Indo-Gangetic Plain and central Himalaya in northern India. ····· 1036198774

The three months before 1995 Kobe earthquake (Mw. 6.8), we observed that anomalous atmospheric radon increased on one of the Rokko fault lines, which was the source of the earthquake. It has been our goal to reduce the risk to people caused by earthquakes by observing warning signs in radon anomalies. We apply a critical phenomena model to the radon data. The anomalous increase in atmospheric radon concentration is studied in detail using the thermodynamic theory on the time-dependent evolution of damage of stressed rock and crustal fluid dynamics prior to catastrophic failure or an earthquake. Effects of radon emissions on atmospheric electrical conditions and preseismic electromagnetic phenomena are discussed in terms of lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere coupling. The radon data and other preseismic phenomena are linked to fluctuations in crustal strain before the earthquake. In this book, we show the observation of the atmospheric radon concentration is of great utility in the detection of preseismic anomalies. This book will be useful to students and researchers who are interested in precursor phenomena of earthquakes. ····· 10361102121

Outer Cape Cod (MA,USA) is dominated by active and stabilizing parabolic and transverse dunes interspersed with numerous inter-dune wetlands. Dune migration has been significantly affected by human activities conversely, current dune movements are affecting local populations. The objective of the research was to assess, using remote sensing and geographic information systems technologies, migration of dunes and the effect of dune movements on distribution of associated wetlands. Aerial photographs from 1938 through 2003 were analyzed to track individual dune movements and wetland propagation and expansion. Based on review of aerial photographs, parabolic dunes have migrated 150 to 250 m since 1938, with 60% of the movement occurring between 1938 and 1977. Wetlands consistently trailed the dunes, and the distance of wetland movement was related to dune movement distances. Stabilization of Cape Cod dunes occurred in the 1980s and 1990s, with renewed movement in the 21st Century.

Recent and future climatic changes of the North Sea and the Baltic Sea

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The North Sea and the Baltic Sea are undergoing climatic changes. Here, long time series of observations from lightships and coastal stations are combined with modeling to investigate the changes in sea temperature, salinity, and sea level. The observed sea surface temperature at the Drogden Station in the transition zone had 10-year running mean temperatures ranging from 8.2 to 9.1C during 1904-1985. By 1992, it had increased to 9.8C, and it has kept that level since. The model scenario shows larger warming in the Baltic Sea than in the North Sea for the 21st century. The projected warming indicates that the rate of warming observed at the Drogden Station since the 1980s may continue. The observations also provide the basis for a detailed climatology. The mean observed absolute sea level rise measured by 8 Danish tide gauges between 1901 and 2000 was 1.5+-0.5 mm/year (90% confidence interval). The model scenario indicates increased westerly winds and increased storm surge heights on the eastern North Sea coasts, as well as in the far ends of the Gulf of Finland and Bothnian Bay. No significant wind induced storm surge height increase was seen in the transition zone. ····· 10361114143

This book deals with the methods of detection, and identification of outliers in time series data in the frequency domain. It also discusses the method of analysis that would be insensitive to outliers. The author uses some robust regression method to fit sine and cosine coefficients at each Fourier frequency assuming additive outlier (AO) and multiplicative outliers (MO) respectively to obtain discrete Fourier transform for removing outliers from time series data. The parameters of the contaminated series were estimated using the maximum likelihood (ML) method and the statistical properties of the derived estimates were investigated. Two algorithms were proposed for detection and accommodation of aberrant observations in the frequency domain while modified test statistic using a more robust estimate that is resistant to outlier were also developed to test each observation for discordance. A new filtering method of accommodating outliers was also suggested and the performance of various accommodation techniques was determined in respect of the fixed and dynamic models.Real life and simulated data were used to illustrate the techniques. ····· 10361115166

Low strain pile integrity testing which utilizes one dimensional wave propagation theory makes it possible to detect major discontinuities or defects (cavities, cracks, decrease and increase in cross-section) within a pile quickly and economically. In this study, pile integrity testing data of 187 piles in two close sites located in Buyukcekmece, Istanbul are analyzed. The test method utilized in this project is the sonic echo method. The aim of this study is to detect occurrence of discontinuities along the pile axis. As the test data reflect the change in impedance, possible impedance diversity due to soil conditions must be known beforehand. In this manner, impedance difference caused by the discontinuities in the pile is distinguished and acquired. Using TNOWAVE`s SITWAVE application, pile integrity testing is simulated and signal matching procedure is executed. In order to achieve reliable results using SITWAVE, sufficient soil investigation must be performed to determine the soil layers and soil parameters properly. In the signal matching process, the test signal data are matched with the reference signal data simulated by the software. ····· 10361115898

Optimum fertilization management is an important technique to alleviate the adverse effects of salinity stress on plants. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the ameliorative role of inorganic and organic P-sources on wheat grown under salt stress in three soil types deficient in available P. Wheat plants were grown on alluvial, sandy and calcareous soils under salinity levels of 4, 8 and 12 dS/m of saturated paste extract (ECe) and supplied with constant rate of superphosphate (SP), cattle manure (CM) and 1:1 mixture of SP and CM. The results revealed that plants grown on the sandy soil were more susceptible to the adverse effects of salinity compared with that planted on the alluvial one, especially at 0 P. However, plants grown on the calcareous soil were moderately affected. In addition, varying soil type caused significant differences in the aboveground biomass and uptake of N, K, P and Zn in shoots and grains, where maximum values were attained in the alluvial soil followed by calcareous soil. Grains and straw yields and contents of N, P and K in the shoot tissue, grains and straw decreased significantly with increasing ECe from low (4 dS/m) to high level (12 dS/m). ····· 10361116142

Surface Energy Budget Over a Land Surface in the Tropics

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Atmospheric convection is sensitive to the nature of the surface and its temperature. Both dry (without cloud) and moist (with cloud) convection depend on the surface temperature. Surface temperature is of critical importance in several practical applications like human comfort and crop cultivation. In the climate change scenario too, variations in the surface temperature take the center stage. Therefore, prediction of surface temperature is important. The evolution of the temperature is governed by the energy equation and the surface temperature by the surface energy balance. Important components of the surface energy balance are radiation (incoming solar radiation, reflected solar radiation, incoming and outgoing longwave radiation), sensible and latent heat fluxes and heat flux into the ground (called ground heat flux).The present study addressed the above problem by using the data from a 10 m meteorological tower. Turbulent fluxes were computed using both profile and Eddy Correlation Method (ECM) and sensitivity of the fluxes for small calibration errors is evaluated and quantified the minimum data accuracies for flux measurement with the Profile method (PM). ····· 10361118206

Effects on Seismic Properties

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Two fluid-related sources of seismic attenuation andvelocity dispersion are examined: thermal relaxation,which originates from the contrasted temperaturevariations in the rock-forming minerals and in thesaturating fluid at the passage of the pressure wave and the liquid-vapor phase transition in partiallysaturated rocks. An analysis of the relaxation timesshows that these processes are relevant in theseismic frequency band and drive the effective fluidcompressibility towards values higher than theunrelaxed values. Under full thermal relaxation between fluid and mineral, the effective compressibility is equal to the averageof the fluid adiabatic and isothermalcompressibilities weighted respectively by the heatcapacities of the fluid and mineral. On the otherhand, at the crossing of bubble point, in thelow-frequency regime a discontinuous variation influid compressibility exists. In these two relaxationprocesses, the difference in fluid bulk modulusbetween the unrelaxed and relaxed regimes, which isdirectly related to P-wave velocity dispersion, canbe as large as 0.5 1 GPa, depending on the fluid typeand gas saturation. ····· 10361118635

EFFECTIVENESS OF WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Unlike developed countries, lack of financial and mechanical resources and abortive institutional structures in developing countries lead to the failure of most of the environmental development projects. One such example is wastewater management projects. Wastewater management is still in its early stages in Lebanon like many other developing countries due to the nonoperational wastewater treatment plants. Wastewater is either discharged into sea, rivers or on open lands without treatment. Also, the the absence of effective wastewater management practices and delay in implementation has led the local communities to plan and implement their own arrangements for effective wastewater treatment facilities. This, however, raise a crucial question about the effectiveness of these facilities. This book aims to assess the effectiveness of existing wastewater treatment systems by testing effluent quality of the treated wastewater discharge, taking Chouf Caza in Lebanon as an example. Furthermore, the discussion comprehends the applicability of the potential wastewater treatment systems for small dispersed rural communities by analyzing and discussing the results. ····· 10361119305

Movement in cities is not an end in itself. Movement of people occurs in order to gain access to people and things. But in car-oriented cities, activities tend to spread out. This forces people to travel further and further for the same level of accessibility as before. So the main concern of transportation planning should be on moving people and goods rather than vehicles. In dense cities, public transport saves valuable space and energy compared to private transport and can make a healthy profit at the same time. Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated cities of the world. To serve this high density Dhaka City, the capital of Bangladesh, needs efficient public transport system. This can be facilitated by the introduction of BRT. In this study a design proposal is made for the blue route proposed in the Strategic Transport Plan for the city. Then the financial feasibility was analyzed using some popular tools like, break even analysis, benefit cost ratio, net present value, internal rate of return. From the analysis it was found that implementing BRT will be beneficial financially. So, to solve the transportation problems of Dhaka, BRT will be a very good choice. ····· 10361131865

The Valco S. Paolo site may be regarded as representative of the main Tiber valley in the urban area of Rome, which is located 2 km south of the city center. In recent years, as per level, temperature and electrical conductivity measurements conducted in gravel and sand aquifers have notable variations. For this purpose, heads observed from 15 piezometers and physical characteristic data of sand and gravel aquifers were monitored in 5 piezometers in the Tiber river by dataloggers during 4 months and integrated with available geological and hydrogeological information to develop a conceptual model of the system. These fundamental information are required to characterize the existing groundwater system in this area in order to establish a groundwater flow model. The validation of the conceptual model by a steady-state numerical groundwater flow model reveals that minimum change occur in the center. Trial and Error calibration method has been applied to this model. The calibrated model had been used to simulate a different set of field measurements and the verification showed a good degree of confidence. ····· 10361132389

The study tests 3 hypotheses: a) that late Miocene to early Pliocene constriction and complete closure of the Central American Seaway (CAS), caused decreased productivity in the Caribbean, b) reduced paleoproductivity resulted in decreased diversity in the Caribbean and, c) this decreased availability of food (reduced paleoproductivity) was responsible for larger mean test size in the three most common benthic foraminiferal species Epistominella exigua, Oridorsalis umbonatus and Globocassidulina subglobosa. The hypotheses are tested by applying correlation analysis to 7 groups of paleoceanographic proxies, 3 indices of diversity measures and mean test size data from the Caribbean ODP Site 999, to 47 core samples between 8.3-2.5 Ma.Study concludes: a) the gradual closure of the CAS led Caribbean diversity and paleoproductivity to decrease abruptly at 7.9 Ma, when the nutrient-rich Pacific deep waters were cut off, and then, again with the complete closure of the seaway at 4.2 Ma, b) Caribben diversity and paleoproductivity are positively correlated and, c) that the availability of food influences mean test size lower availability and decreased abundances lead to larger test size. ····· 10361132664

Mahanadi Delta is an important sedimentary basin of India rich in hydrocarbon and mineral wealth, motivated several geological and geophysical studies since four decades. The present work however, mainly deals with imaging shallow basement and deep-crustal structures down to the Moho and provides a detailed subsurface structural, velocity and density image corroborated from well lithology, modeling of seismic refraction, wide-angle reflection of DSS data, Bouguer gravity data, other geological and geophysical informations to comprehend the tectonic and geodynamic processes involved in the Delta. The integrated interpretation deciphers basement configuration with horsts and grabens by imaging of thick low-velocity Gondwana sediments, which are anisotropic and potential for hydrocarbon accumulation in the graben hidden below high-velocity volcanics. The mid-crustal low-velocity layer indicates the Delta has undergone intensive deformation due to magmatism related to rifting and drifting of the Indian Plate during breakup of the Gondwanaland with evidence of underplating in the base of lower-crust and significant Moho upwarping.

Soil Hook System as an Innovative Soil Anchor

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Structures like buried pipelines, transmission towers and earth structures subjected to considerable vertical or horizontal pullout forces are usually supported by anchors. The anchors are helical or plate systems which require excavation and grout in their applications. During the last fifty years, many researchers focused on pullout capacity of anchors. The aim of this book is to obtain breakout factor and ultimate pullout capacity load of Soil Hook System (SHS) and compares it with previous finding by different researchers. SHS is a new anchor system base on the state of the art of plate anchors that does not require grout and excavation in their applications. It was found that the pullout load capacity and breakout of SHS was similar to the works done by the previous researchers in plate anchors. This book has solved the problem of the installation of anchors into sand with SHS without the need to grout or excavate. ····· 10361147149

This book contains a selection of reports contributed to the World Housing Encyclopedia project (world-housing.net/) by the author, some of them together with Eng. Ilie Sandu, about housing types in Bucharest, Romania, covering a time span from the late 19th century, from when such an amount of housing buildings is kept that the typology is representative, until the end of the 20th century. Apart of the report contributed to date to the World Housing Encyclopedia, also two new reports are included, one on multistory masonry housing, and one on buildings of the Modern Movement with commercial ground floor. The reports are grouped in their historical evolution, related to the dominant architectural style of the time, and, in some cases, this means more than one report exemplifying such a style (for example low rise and middle rise masonry buildings during the Neoromânesc, Modernist buildings with and without commercial ground floor, two different types of block of flats of the International Style which resisted well and respectively poorly to earthquakes). The selection of reports is preceded by an introduction, which includes an overview of surveys performed by the author or research groups the author participated in on the built substance of Bucharest, Romania, to assess how representative these housing types are for the city. The housing types cover load bearing masonry structures, reinforced concrete skeleton and moment resisting frames and reinforced concrete structural walls, out of precast elements and not. Apart of the vulnerability assessment, also possible and applied retrofit solutions are reviewed. The book is richly illustrated with photographs and drawings of typical floor plans, (3D) sections and axonometric views. ····· 10361192709

Emissionen und Immissionsschutz in der Stahlindustrie

für 57.90€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Stahlerzeugung ist eine Grundstoffindustrie, die am Anfang zahlreicher Wertschöpfungsketten unserer Volkswirtschaft steht. Stahlproduktion und verarbeitung sind selbst in der Gegenwart oft mit dem Image rauchender Schornsteine, glühenden Eisens und der Freisetzung von Emissionen behaftet. Anhand des Fallbeispiels Stahlstandort Riesa wurden für den Zeitraum von 1944 bis 2015 Produktions- und Umweltdaten, gesetzliche Vorgaben und staatliche Überwachung sowie die reale Situation in den Betrieben und Behörden der beiden Geschichtsepochen ausgewertet. Die Arbeit liefert einen Überblick über die Technologien zur Luftreinhaltung und festgesetzten Grenzwerte und enthält für die Zeit der DDR zahlreiche bisher unveröffentlichte Daten und Zusammenhänge. Der heutige Industriebetrieb wurde unter den genannten Aspekten mit drei Standorten der Elektrostahlindustrie in Deutschland verglichen. Darüber hinaus wurden die Formen der Öffentlichkeitsbeteiligung, das Auftreten der Bürger und die Reaktionen der Unternehmen dargestellt. Drei wesentliche Fragestellungen wurden untersucht und beantwortet: Wie entwickelt sich ein Industriestandort über Jahrhunderte und welche rechtlichen, technologischen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Randbedingungen sind dabei von Bedeutung Inwieweit sind die Erfahrungen am Standort Riesa branchentypisch - was lässt sich verallgemeinern und wo liegen gegebenenfalls wesentliche Unterschiede - und warum Welche Herausforderungen hat ein Industriestandort zu bewältigen, die jenseits der technologischen und politischen Randbedingungen liegen Deutlich wird, dass es heute nicht mehr genügt `nur` gute fachliche Arbeit im Umweltschutz zu leisten und ein hoch effizienter Vorzeigebetrieb der europäischen Stahlindustrie zu sein. Darüber hinausgehend ist eine angemessene und stets neu zu durchdenkende Kommunikation mit der `interessierten Öffentlichkeit` immer essentieller. ····· 10361108292

Quantitative Assessment of Gas Hydrate from Seismic Data

Gas Hydrate is solid compound of mainly methane and water, considered to be a huge energy resource, is still in research mode of delineation, distribution and estimation. Here, few methods/approaches have shown for quantitative assessment of gas hydrate from seismic amplitudes. Seismic attributes like reflection strength, blanking and instantaneous frequency have been computed to identify gas-hydrates in absence of BSR (Bottom simulating reflector) or to ascertain whether a BSR is related to gas-hydrates. Constrained amplitude versus offset (AVO) coupled with rock physics modeling employed here, could be an effective way for quantification of gas-hydrates and free-gas across a BSR. ····· 1036120102

3D simulation of magnetotelluric data

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
A finite difference algorithm for 3D modeling of magnetotelluric data is presented. The algorithm, MT_3D_EA, (Magnetotelluric 3-Dimensional Eigenmode Approach) uses eigenmodes for solving the relevant partial differential equation wherein only a small subset of eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors are required to achieve satisfactory results. The requisite small subset (pre-specified number) of eigenmodes are obtained by using shift and invert implementation of Implicitly Restarted Arnoldi Method (IRAM). It is analyzed that only 10-15% smallest eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors are sufficient to obtain the acceptable solution. Using this approach one can find multi-frequency solution almost at the computational cost of single frequency solution. 3D results for synthetic models taken from COMMEMI project report and simulation results for simplified geoelectrical model of Garhwal Himalaya based on field data are presented as experiment design. ····· 1036118373

Multimodel Analysis of Data Collection Schemes

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The rational management of groundwater resource systems requires an understanding of their response to existing and planned schemes of exploitation, pollution prevention and/or remediation. Such understanding in turn requires collecting suitable data to characterize the system, model flow and transport within it and monitor its response to stresses. The high cost of subsurface data acquisition requires that they be collected in a judicious and effective manner. Previous approaches to the assessment and optimization of data collection schemes have generally considered the underlying models to be known and accurate. In reality, the complex nature of hydrogeologic environments renders available data prone to multiple interpretations and the system subject to alternative ways of representation by models. Multimodel analysis method within the framework of Bayesian model averaging and its maximum likelihood version is used to analyze the worth of data and a discrete variable version of the Differential Evolution method is introduced to optimize the locations of prospective new data so as to reduce overall predictive uncertainty. ····· 1036118565

Tuberculosis (TB), a disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, has affected mankind for over 5000 years and it continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The 1990 WHO report on the Global Burden of Disease ranked TB as the seventh most morbidity-causing disease in the world, and expected it to continue in the same position up to 2020. India is the global capital of tuberculosis, accounting for one fifth of the global incidence and 2/3rd of the cases in South East Asia. Nearly 40% of the Indian population is infected with the TB bacillus. Due to lack of proper health services and inacessiblty, the situation is very grim in Uttarakhand state of India. The present book deals with the investigation of statistically significant clusters of TB in three districts of Kumaun region of Uttarakhand in relation to socio-economic and educational coordinates. Spatial scan statistic and GIS have been used to study the geo-spatial hotspots of TB in the region. The book displays the use of different statistical and geographical tools to analyze the gravity of this menace so as to empower the health care providers to chalk out effective strategies to curb its growth. ····· 1036118576

Basinfill of the Permian Tanqua Karoo, South Africa

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Basin subsidence analysis, employing the backstripping method, indicates that fundamentally two different basin-generating mechanisms controlled Tanqua depocentre development in SW Karoo Basin. The subsidence curves display initial dominantly decelerating subsidence, suggesting an extensional and thermal control possibly in a strike-slip setting during the depocentre formation on the other hand, subsequent accelerating subsidence with time suggests that the dominant control on the depocentre formation in SW Karoo was flexure of the lithosphere. Furthermore, siliciclastic cover in the Tanqua depocentre expanded from minimal values in the early Triassic (Early to Late Anisian) and to a maximum in the middle Permian (Wordian -Roadian) thereby accompanying a global falling trend in eustatic sea-level and favoured by a compressional phase involving a regional shortening due to orogenic thrusting and positive inflections (denoting foreland basin formation). The estimate of sediment volume obtained in this study for the Permian Period to a maximum in the middle Permian is therefore consistent with published eustatic sea-level and stress regime data. ····· 1036121118

Anthropogenic Black Carbon and Ozone Precursors Emission over India

Climate change has become a pressing global issue in recent time because of rapid increase in anthropogenic emission of green house gases (GHGs). The advent of industrial era is escorted by the increase in anthropogenic activities and production of energy is always associated with the release of GHGs and carbonaceous particles like black carbon (BC) which acts as a GHGs. Ozone in the troposphere has been a subject of interest for the scientific community due to its climatic implications as it acts as GHG. The Indian tropical region is also vulnerable to emission of several pollutants including ozone precursors. Sectors which contribute to the emission of above pollutants are anthropogenic sources like fossil and bio-fuel burning. Therefore, for understanding the distribution of tropospheric ozone scenario over Indian geographical region, development of emission inventories of its ozone precursors is essential for both scientific purposes as well as for mitigation and control measures. For scientific purposes, emission inventories are a critical input in 3D chemical transport model (CTM) for a realistic estimation of the level of air pollutants in the atmosphere. ····· 1036121394

This monograph reports procedures and results of a study to investigate the geothermal potential of a prospect located in Magadi area in the southern Kenya Rift using potential fields.The region is reported in previous studies to be seismically active receiving earthquake swarms. Earthquake swarms in a geothermal environment suggests a lower crustal anomaly body of reduced shear strength. Along the shores of Lake Magadi are thermal manifestations in form of hot springs.This suggests presence of a heat source/s at depth worth investigation. Gravity and Magnetic data were therefore collected in established stations.A total of 58 stations were used for magnetic measurements while the same stations together with other fill-in stations from the Gravity catalog of Kenya were used for gravity measurements. All the necessary reductions were carried out on both data sets and contour maps generated. Anomalies were discerned and profiles generated across them. Euler deconvolution, spectral analysis and 2-D forward modelling analysis techniques were attempted on the profile data. From the spectral analysis, curie point depth along the profiles was estimated. ····· 1036124551

AVO and Spectral Decomposition on the Pipila Field, Mexico

····· lezzter Preis 61.20€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
AVO (amplitude-variation-with-offset) and Spectral Decomposition techniques were used together to enhance the difference between the gas sands and wet sands. The conditioning of the CDP gathers to preserve the amplitude was driven by the creation of the synthetic gathers in order to identify the type of AVO anomaly present. The CDP gathers then, were used in conjunction with the conditioned RMS velocity field, to produce the Intercept and Gradient AVO attributes and finally create their corresponding frequency gathers with the use of the spectral decomposition. The frequency gathers generated with the Intercept and the Gradient from the well logs were compared against the frequency gathers Intercept and Gradient from the seismic. This comparison led to an understanding of how the technique could be used in areas where there is no well control. This work emphasizes the importance of modeling and early identification of the AVO anomaly type and analysis. ····· 1036124816

The total cost of pipeline to transport CO2 from power plants for enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) in oil fields in Texas Gulf Coast has been analysed. The impact of the CO2 capture and transport on power generation cost, including the benefits of atmospheric CO2 mitigation has also been determined. Power plants comprising 55.7% of installed capacity in Texas Gulf Coast as of 2008 were selected. Absorption amine technology was adopted for the CO2 capture. Bernoulli s equation was used to model the fluid transmission. Cost escalation factors were introduced into existing pipeline models to improve estimation. The analysis shows that cost of the pipeline transport is highly sensitive to escalations in labour, material and right-of-way costs. The percentage incremental generation cost for coal-fired plants is from 55-122% whilst that of gas-fired is from 9-13%. Some by-products from the CO2 capture could be sold to reduce generation costs. The results indicate 6-12% reduction in Texas Gulf Coast power plant annual emissions. Further emission reduction of three to fourfold is realised if EOR includes geologic sequestration. Overall, it has the potential to create 7,000-10,000 new jobs. ····· 1036186888

The palynological, palynofacies and organic geochemical analyses of 71 subsurface cuttings and 3 core samples from the GPTSW-7 well, Western Desert, Egypt, allowed the recognition of 5 biozones and 3 subzones. The combined optical (Spore colouration, palynofacies and vitrinite reflectance (Ro) and chemical (TOC and Rock-Eval pyrolysis) studies showed that, the Abu Roash and Bahariya formations, are primarily of kerogen III type, and hence gas-prone. The Abu Roash `F` Member contains a high proportion of AOM, high TOC and low OI values, indicating a highly oil-prone facies. This may be attributed to the presence of an organic-rich black shale layer, considered to be the sedimentary expression of a short-term global Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE2). The palynofloral and palynofacies analyses show that, the Abu Roash A and C members, represent an oxic proximal and distal shelf environment, the Abu Roash D and E members, represent an oxic proximal shelf, while the Abu Roash F Member, was deposited in a distal suboxic-anoxic basin, the Abu Roash G Member and the Bahariya Formation, were deposited in a shallow marine and shallow marine to fluvio-deltaic environment, respectively. ····· 1036187504

The seagrasses, a unique aquatic plants, are the most important component in the environmental food chain of the coastal ecosystems. The P.oceanica seagrass is an endemic for the Mediterranean region, and a main species in the marine coastal environment of Greece. Meadows of P.oceanica are subjected to the human activities, since they occur in coastal areas, where they are affected both by anthropogenic and by natural (climatic and environmental) factors. Nowadays P.oceanica is in the alarming state of regression, because of the deterioration of the environment in the Mediterranean Sea. Current work focuses on the methods of monitoring and mapping of P.oceanica along the northern coasts of Crete Island, Greece, and investigates the application of the remote sensing techniques for the seagrass mapping. Particularly, the optical properties of the P.oceanica and carbonate sand are reviewed and compared, in order to study distinguishability of various seafloor cover types with varying environmental conditions.

The combination of Artificial Neural Network and Fuzzy Logic are probably the most attractive techniques among the researchers in recent times which is capable of handling non-linear, imprecise, fuzzy, noisy and probabilistic information to solve complex problem in efficient manner. Hybrid systems are designed to take advantage of the strengths of each system and avoid the limitations of each system. It is natural for neural networks to learn but it is cumbersome for a fuzzy system to learn. Hence a combination of the two would result in a rule- based system that can learn and adapt. This book, therefore, provide a comprehensive and integrated approach using Fuzzy logic and Artificial neural network techniques in modeling selected hydrological problems related to International river Brahmaputra within India. Four different hydrological problems are modeled using the proposed fuzzy neural network approach for examining the usefulness of it. This comprehensive real time hydrological modelling study should be especially useful to the Hydrologist, civil engineers, agriculturists, students, field engineers and related governmental as well as non-governmental organisations. ····· 1036188165

The tropical atmosphere acts as a heat engine, which drives the global atmospheric dynamics and distributes the heat input received in this region to high altitudes and also to higher latitudes. Due to this fact this region is regarded as the source region for many weather activities such as thunderstorms, convections, cyclones, etc. Owing to the importance of atmospheric structures in the tropical troposphere many experiments have been conducted at Gadanki (13.5oN, 79.2oE), a tropical station in India, using UHF/VHF radars, which have revealed out some unique features associated with atmospheric turbulent layers and its impact on stratosphere-troposphere exchange (STE), especially during the passage of tropical cyclone/depression and convection. These results are discussed in this thesis. In addition, data from various field campaigns conducted over Indian peninsular regions have also been utilized for intensive studies on low tropical tropopause temperature and its role in the STE and its associated dynamics.

In the realm of atmospheric sciences, the vertical air motion in any region dictates the structure and dynamics of that region. Importantly in the lower part of the atmosphere, wide spread deterioration and improvement of weather is usually caused by the vertical air motion. Adiabatic cooling due to upward motion leads to formation of clouds and adiabatic warming due to downward motion leads to dissipation of clouds. Thus vertical air motion plays a vital role in controlling the day to day weather. Also the information of convective updrafts/downdrafts is crucial for aviation industry and also for rocket launches. The direct measurements of vertical air motion were not possible until the advent of wind profilers. Realizing the importance of vertical air motion in the tropical atmosphere, the present thesis brings out unique results on the mean structure and variability of vertical velocity during fair-weather and convection using long term data (10 years) from Indian Mesosphere Stratosphere Troposphere (MST) Radar.- Dr. K.

The book revealed that the land use is generally for agriculture (rainfed crop farming and animal husbandry), forest reserve, soil mining and refuse dumping while, the land covers are crops, trees (both exotic and indigenous species), shrubs, grasses, litters and refuse. Land use and land cover changes revealed forest use to agriculture and from tree/grass cover to crop cover and bare land respectively. The overall rate of degradation stands at 1%. The major types of degradation in the area are loss of surface soil rich in organic material, distortion of the land surface morphology, gully erosion, deforestation, flooding and indiscriminate dumping of refuse. Fourteen variables were selected for the analysis of the causes of land degradation. The results of correlation reveals that the partial correlation coefficient between the size of area degraded and slope is 0.563 while with the size of land use for agriculture, types of degradation and numbers of economic trees are -0.992, -0.630 and -0.496 respectively and they are all significant at 5% test level.

Precipitation is one of the most variable atmospheric parameter in space and time. It influences the dynamics of the earth s atmosphere. Three-fourth of the energy that drives atmospheric circulation is generated from the latent heat released by the precipitation. Precipitation has many applications in agriculture, hydrology, flood predication, water management and climatology. Despite its importance, precipitation is one of the most difficult atmospheric parameters to measure because of its large variability in space and time. Many investigators have focused upon getting better rainfall intensity information using combination of ground based radars and dense network of rain gauges but such information is available only for limited areas because of their insufficient coverage over large part of the land and most of the oceans.

Digital mapping is a key tool to study, understand and depict environmental parameters. Spatial variability within the landscape is measured at point observation locations, and it is modelled as continua using spatially exhaustive ancillary information. Many technologies are available as sources of usable and low cost ancillary information, such as probe sensing (e.g. proximal geophysics, air borne laser scanning, satellite imagery), and digital terrain analysis (e.g. combining a digital elevation model with the gravitational field). The complete picture of the environmental complexity is gained when point measurements are repeated in time domain to create a point spatiotemporal dataset. Many statistical techniques exist to explore the variation of environmental parameters at measured point locations in the attribute, geographic and/or temporal domains. This dissertation includes two main applications to environment: the digital mapping of some key soil features using spatial statistics (such as geostatistics, fuzzy logic, and artificial neural networks) and the spatiotemporal analysis of daily and spatially sparse rainfall data using ensembles of neural networks. ····· 1036199942

Physically based parameter estimation methods for hydrological models

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Reliable quantification of available water resources is an important prerequisite for sustainable management and development. However, the data required for adequate resource estimation are usually not available due to inadequate and shrinking measurement networks. Hydrologic models are the standard tool used to generate continuous estimates of stream flow and regionalisation has been the traditional approach to model application in poorly gauged basins. The classical approach to regionalization is to calibrate against naturalized observed data, identify hydrologically similar basins, and then transfer calibrated parameter sets to the ungauged basins. One of the problems related to this approach is the relatively few basins for calibration in southern Africa (due to data quality and availability problems), resulting in huge uncertainties in the prediction process. This study proposes an a priori process to directly estimate parameters of the Pitman monthly rainfall runoff model based on physical basin characteristics. The approach is tested on selected basins in southern African. ····· 10361118598

This book assesses various processes and strategies of engaging disparate development stakeholders in urban governance and evaluates the experiences and capacities of civil society in urban development in Harare. A case is made that macroeconomic instability and other external forces such as globalization constraints, the legacy of colonialism, along with rapid urban population growth, institutional, financial and administrative incapacities, and outdated governance traditions, have resulted in failure of government to provide social services or even to maintain basic infrastructure. Consequently, civil society has stepped up to fill the gap. The effectiveness of civil society however, depends on the nature of its internal organization and operations, as well as its relationships with the state and other urban development stakeholders. Ultimately, since their roles are complementary and mutually reinforcing, civil society and the state need each other and must work together in order to achieve human sustainable development of all sectors of society.

Hydrogeological mapping in the area is based on the conventional hydrogeological investigation methods and remote sensing technique. Descriptions of the hydrostratigraphic units in the area is mainly based on qualitative interpretation such as degree of weathering and fracturing, existence or absence of springs, vegetation cover, soil cover etc. Landsat 7 ETM+ images of bands 731 are used to make structural analysis of the area. GIS overlay of the lineaments, well yields and groundwater level is used to show the structural control on the groundwater circulation and storage and also to depict the groundwater flow direction. Hydrochemical analysis of water samples indicates that the spring, hand dug well, river and dam waters are calcium-magnesium-bicarbonate type waters, the borehole water partly calcium-magnesium-bicarbonate type, sodium-magnesium-bicarbonate and partly with no dominant cation (Na-Ca-Mg-HCO3) type water. Potential places for groundwater in the area are in the central and southern part, where two or more systems of lineaments intersect. ····· 10361131990

Integrated Geophysical & Remote sensing studies: Structural Evaluation

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Geological interest and economic wealth of the Archaean to Proterozoic Dharwar craton in the Precambrian Indian peninsular shield have motivated several geological and geophysical studies. However, many of the earlier geophysical investigations were focused on eliciting the broad, deep-seated regional signatures in parts of the craton. Yet, there are very few reports of detailed crustal configuration of the region. Further, there are very few instances of semi-detailed geophysical investigations in the craton. Keeping this in mind, an area in eastern Dharwar craton was identified for 2D semi-detailed geophysical and remote sensing image analysis. Since, the area has its contiguity with Maddur-Narayanpet kimberlite field it forms the south and southeast extension. Therefore, motivated by this proximity, using a posteriori approach, published report of occurrences of kimberlites in Maddur-Narayanpet kimberlite field was reanalyzed to develop a sub-surface topographic criterion to identify zones with potential for occurrence of kimberlites. This criterion was then used to locate such zones in the study area. This book is very useful for practicing geophysicists in kimberlite serach. ····· 10361132231

Unsaturated Flow Simulation with Modified Transformation Methods

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The chief goal of this research is to develop robust and practical numerical methods for solving the highly nonlinear partial differential equation describing unsaturated flow in porous media. A new combination approach consisting of a rational function transformation and a common under-relaxation technique is proposed to solve the finite element formulation of h-based form of Richards equation. Numerical studies show that this combination method outperforms previous numerical schemes in the sense that it can use larger time-steps and mesh sizes to produce acceptable results and also converge to a stable solution quickly in each time-step. Furthermore, the superiority of proposed approach is also identified when combined with different time stepping schemes in terms of efficiency that it takes less run time to produce solutions satisfying the requirements in accuracy. This book should be of special interest to researchers, civil engineers who will deal with unsaturated flow simulations. ····· 10361133046

Geochemistry and Mineralogy of Mine Rock Pile Materials

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The study of the geochemistry and mineralogy of different size fractions is essential to understanding mobility and availability of minerals to dissolution and oxidation during the weathering processes that takes place in mine rock pile materials. The oxidation results in acidic, iron- and sulfate-rich waters, which accelerate the oxidation of rock-forming minerals. This book, therefore, provides insight on: 1) how the amount and the extent of oxidation of the sulfide minerals vary from rock piles to rock piles all around the world due to different mineralogies and geochemical properties and 2) characterization of the geochemical and mineralogical properties of bulk rock pile samples and their different grain size fractions. At the end of reading this book you will come to understand how acid mine drainage could be tackled from a single understanding of the mineralogy and geochemistry of particle size fractions of mine rock pile materials. ····· 10361133806

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book describes a new approach, named Variometric Approach for Displacements Analysis Stand-alone Engine (VADASE), originally designed to detect in real-time the 3D displacements of a GNSS receiver. VADASE is based upon a so called variometric algorithm able to retrieve in real-time the displacements of a unique receiver, with accuracies ranging from few centimeters up to a couple of decimeters. Eventually, VADASE was appointed as an effective contribution to GPS Seismology. First, the state of the art of GPS Seismology and the advantages and limitations that GNSS receivers can bring about with respect to seismology instruments are presented. Further, a review of the main applications that benefit from high-rate GNSS data availability is given, with an insight on earthquake and tsunami early warning systems. Then, the book illustrates VADASE functional model and the results obtained in several scenarios simulated by a Spirent GNSS data simulator. Importantly, receiver displacements achieved for real earthquakes by VADASE are assessed with respect to those obtained by the most used strategies in GPS Seismology (i.e. Precise Point Positioning and Differential Positioning). ····· 10361134173

Archaeogeophysical exploration in Egypt

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The Saqqara area in Egypt has attracted many researchers interested in studying Egpyt`s archeological treasures. Most studies carried out in this area have concerned classical archaeological excavations. However, the negative effects of the flowing groundwater are so significant that this area needs to be inspected much more rapidly and appropriate measures put in place to mitigate or prevent further damage. This book is concerned with the application of several geophysical techniques in investigations of regional geological features and an important local buried archaeological structure at the famous Saqqara necropolis cemetery. Combined interpretation of electrical resistivity and time-domain electromagnetic data provided important constraints on the deep regional geology of the Saqqara area. Of the methods applied in the archaeological study, georadar produced disappointing results because of the high conductivity of the shallow subsurface the shallow conductivity distribution was established from an electrical resistivity survey. In contrast, the magnetic method provided valuable information on the lateral positions of archaeological features . ····· 10361135559

Systemic theory applied to ecology, geography and spatial planning

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Starting from a critical comparative analysis of how the systemic conception is applied in geography, ecology and spatial planning, with a particular focus on the new concept of territorial system , the book demonstrates the hypothesis according to which the transfer of statistical methods currently used to study ecological systems toward the analysis of territorial systems is not only possible, but also beneficial based on theoretical foundations and six case studies developed at several spatial scales. The methodological import shapes both a hierarchy of the methods (by analogy with biostatistics) based on the goal and needs related to the manner of interpreting the results, and an algorithm for applying these instruments. People from the academia and research, both theoreticians and practitioners of the three fields (geography, ecology and territorial planning) can find a useful tool in their teaching and research activities. Nevertheless, in a more general sense the book looks at the very essence of more disciplines, and philosophers of science could be interested too. ····· 10361146336

En este trabajo se evalúa la respuesta del suelo tras el fuego en situaciones típicas de muchas zonas mediterráneas, abarcando ambientes semiáridos, secos y subhúmedos. Se han utilizado diferentes escalas de trabajo, desde la microparcela a la ladera, pasando por estudios bajo condiciones controladas en el laboratorio. Entre otros factores, se ha analizado el efecto del tipo de suelo, la orientación, la respuesta de la vegetación, la virulencia del fuego y el uso del suelo. Entre los resultados obtenidos destacan los siguientes: Se observó un incremento generalizado de las producciones de escorrentía y sedimentos durante el periodo posterior al fuego. Los resultados indican que estos incrementos estuvieron asociados a un sellado de la superficie del suelo debido al impacto de las gotas de lluvia. Este fenómeno puede ocurrir incluso en suelos con una estabilidad estructural elevada. La respuesta de la vegetación fue un factor fundamental de control de la degradación posterior al fuego. Se mostraron especialmente vulnerables al fuego los suelos desarrollados sobre margas y coluvios margo-calizos, así como las comunidades vegetales dominadas por especies incapaces de rebrotar. ····· 1036190996

Efectos sísmicos de trayecto y sitio para el centro de México

Los sismos originados en la Costa del Pacífico mexicano, pueden afectar severamente su región central. Un claro ejemplo es el sismo de Michoacán de 1985, cuyas consecuencias en la Ciudad de México (CM) motivaron la investigación tratando de explicar la respuesta observada del sitio. En la CM se presentan amplificaciones inusuales del movimiento sísmico así como incremento en la duración. La combinación de estos factores puede ser catastrófica para un gran número de edificaciones ubicadas sobre suelo blando. Los efectos de sitio, causados por la presencia de arcillas altamente compresibles, se identificaron como una causa primordial del daño ocurrido. También existe evidencia de amplificación del movimiento sísmico para sitios clasificados como firmes en el Valle de México, respecto a sitios en roca con la misma distancia epicentral pero con trayectorias paralelas a la costa. Los resultados de la presente investigación muestran una importante contribución por parte de los efectos de trayecto en el movimiento sísmico registrado, siendo las más afectadas las ciudades localizadas en el centro del país.

La cuenca del Odiel transcurre en su mayor parte a través de la llamada Faja Pirítica Ibérica (FPI), una de las principales regiones metalogénicas del mundo, con unas reservas originales de sulfuros masivos del orden de 1700 millones de toneladas. Asociado a la explotación de estos yacimientos de sulfuros se origina un lixiviado ácido con altas concentraciones de elementos tóxicos y sulfatos, por el proceso denominado Drenaje Ácido de Mina (AMD: Acid Mine Drainage). Estos lixiviados producen la degradación de la mayor parte de la red fluvial del río Odiel. Entre los años 2002-2006 se realizó un estudio del estado de la contaminación por AMD en la cuenca del Odiel con objeto de caracterizar y cuantificar el grado de contaminación por drenaje ácido de minas y estudiar sus variaciones estacionales. Como resultado principal se obtiene que de los 1149 km de cursos fluviales que posee la cuenca del río Odiel, 427 km se encuentran afectados por drenajes ácidos de minas, lo que supone casi el 40% del total de la red hidrológica. ····· 10361137496

Geophysical Study of Fervenca and 2-D Apparent Resistivity Models

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
From the hydrogeological point of view the Fervença region is characterised by two aquifers, one in porous media, superficial and installed in Quaternary and Cretaceous formations, and the other, eventually deeper, installed in Jurassic carbonate formations, known as the Bairrada Karstic System. Although of strategic importance of these aquifers for local water supply and for agriculture use, there are not comprehensive studies and information about the thickness of the overlaying formations and the structure of the carbonate formations. The present research aims of clarifying these questions using geophysical prospecting methods. An integrated approach is used including apparent resistivity soundings, seismic refraction profiles and the available boreholes information in the region. A set of interpretation material was developed for simple 2D models and thus pseudosections for alpha resistivity and for the ratio beta/gamma resistivities using Wenner tripotential measurements are presented, in order to be used for the interpretation of the present and future field data.Finally the integration of all data suggests a structural model for the region and an evaluation of the thickness. ····· 10361929

Simulation of Asphaltene Deposition During CO2 Flooding

This thesis presents the results of phase behavior calculations and simulation of asphaltene precipitation, flocculation, and deposition in five wells from Saudi Arabia and UAE, for the first time. Asphaltene precipitation becomes a serious problem especially when it causes plugging of the formation, wellbore, or production facilities. Asphaltene prevention techniques are discussed in details and supported by simulated case studies for the five wells. Asphaltene precipitation was modeled by using WinProp (a phase behavior utility from CMG) which uses Nghiem solid model. Asphaltene precipitation, flocculation, and deposition have been simulated throughout the primary (pressure depletion), secondary (Waterflooding) and tertiary recovery (CO2 injection) stages. Several production scenarios that include different bottomhole and production rate constraints, different WAG cycles and different completion/injection scenrios were tested to investigate and identify the cases with lowest asphaltene precipitation and higher recovery. The thesis includes a 1D simulation comparison study of asphaltene precipitation between three different compositional simulators UTCOMP, ECLIPSE and CMG/GEM. ····· 103613666

Colloid Transport and Attenuation in Saturated Porous Media

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Colloids refer to particles or macromolecules with at least one dimension of 1nm~1µm. A wide range of environmental particles fall within this category including microorganisms, nanoparticles, and mineral precipitates. Understanding colloid fate and transport in porous medium not only permits more effective protection of water supplies, but also allows for the development of more effective pollutant remediation strategies. Organic matter (OM) complicates colloid behaviour. To date the influence of OM on colloid mobility in porous media has been largely qualitative. This book presents research leading to the development of multiple-pulse column techniques that may be integrated with mathematical models to quantify the effects of OM on particulate colloid attenuation in saturated porous medium. Research has investigated how two groups of environmental organic compounds, humic acids and proteins, influence particulate colloid attenuation by saturated sand. Study findings may shed light on complex colloidal behaviour in organic matter impacted environment and be useful to professionals in contaminant hydrogeology, environmental remediation, and wastewater treatment. ····· 103613689

Tropical rain Drop Size Distribution and Integral rain parameters

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book deals with tropical rain Drop Size Distribution (DSD), rain rate (R) and radar reflectivity factor (Z). An extensive understanding of rain DSD and integral rain parameters finds applications in fields like satellite meteorology, cloud microphysics, soil erosion, micro wave communication and global climate. DSD and derived rain parameters data from 4 tropical stations for 10 years, which were measured using a Joss-Waldvogel Disdrometer and those at different heights, which were collected using a Micro Rain Radar are used. The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and other satellite rain rate (3B42-V6) for the same period has also been used. The major results pertain to the development and testing of a model for the variation of DSD with rain rate in the tropics. The theoretical concepts regarding the altitudinal and temporal evolution of rain DSD could be proved. The evaluation of the vertical profiles of DSD and Z-R relations for tropical region is another result. This study has also brought out the need to have a closer look at the satellite retrieval. The behaviour of the rain rate at tropics and the possible effect of orography on DSD has also been brought out. ····· 1036118908

Peat Stabilization

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Fibrous peat is one of the weakest subsoil foundation materials under imposed loads. Shallow and deep stabilizations using ordinary Portland cement as binding agent and silica fume, blast furnace slag, fly ash, polypropylene fibres and steel fibres as chemically active and none active additives have been used to improve strength as well as to reduce compressibility of fibrous peat. Major evaluation tests used, were FVST, UCS, CBR, CUT, and Rowe cell consolidation tests. Disturbed (bulk) and undisturbed fibrous peat samples were also used for indexed property tests. For deep stabilization of peat, precast stabilized peat columns were tested for their role on shear strength, as well as compressibility of untreated or plain fibrous peat. PLT is used on plain and reinforced peat with various types of stabilized columns in a test tank, and the actual test results were compared with the answers obtained from FEM analysis. All types of test results used during the course of the research indicate that stabilization techniques used in either shallow (mass) or deep stabilizations improve the load bearing capacities of untreated fibrous peat, hence upgrading peat civil engineering properties. ····· 1036119208

Anisotropic Composite Reservoir Characterization Using Pressure Data

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
A composite reservoir is one with multiple lateral compartments each having distinct rock and fluid properties separated by geologic discontinuities. Using transform methods, a general three dimensional point source semi-analytical solution for the drawdown response in composite clastic and naturally fractured systems separated by a leaky fault is developed. This solution is converted to line source for horizontal and vertical wells and plane source for hydraulically fractured wells, while treating the fault as a thin finite conductivity fracture. For the first time, it is documented that the intersection time between the long-time approximation of both observer pressure drawdown and observer pressure derivative is unique. Commercial simulator and field data from the Niger Delta was used to validate this model and direct synthesis of reservoir parameters from the resulting equations for various wells under different boundary conditions are examined. The result of this work is attractive where formation juxtapositions separated by leaky faults in the reservoir are suspected to allow flow from adjacent fields and where vertical permeability plays a major role in depletion. ····· 1036119534

Hardpan Formation in Mine Tailings

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
In this study, mine tailings located in different climatic regions were studied for their mineralogical, geochemical, physical properties and the tailings discharge techniques used to understand the process affecting hardpan formation. This was combined with column experiments for monitoring the transport/precipitation processes. Thickened tailings discharge in Egypt did not allow grain-size/mineral segregation and therefore the critical amount of reactive mineral phases cannot be achieved. This, with high carbonate contents and high-temperature/low-water availability did not allow significant oxidation of sulfides and decrease hardpans possibility. Spigot tailings disposal in Germany with enrichment of reactive phases in certain lamina, combined with periods of raining and drying events enhances the process of hardpan formation. Hardpan development is highly enhanced in areas with high temperature, water content, high reactive minerals, repetition of drying/wetting cycles and long reaction time. This work shed some lights on the process of hardpan formation to minimize the environmental problems developed in inactive mine sites, especially those with high sulfide contents. ····· 1036120463

Impact Analysis of Climate Change on the Dynamics of Glaciers

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Glaciers are very sensitive to climate change. Climatic parameters like Temp., Precipitation, Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Solar Radiation are playing major role. Glacier s size, life span, growth and retreat all depend strongly on climate conditions. The Himalaya possesses all the three characteristics of glaciers viz. low, mid and high latitudes glaciers. In the extreme west the climate is purely sub tropic to mid latitudinal climate and tropical in the east. Therefore, Himalaya provides a unique opportunity to study the mass balance and snout fluctuations of the mountain glacier, which can be modeled for the different kind of climatic regime. Main objective of this book is to analyse impact of climate change on the dynamics of the glaciers for the last 30 years. Based on the satellite images, the glacial boundaries were visualized and classified into various classes based on the Normalized Difference Snow Index algorithms for the last 30 years. Climatic data from various sources are used. The Climate Change impact analysis is done in three major sections i.e. Physiographic Impacts on the Hydro-geomorphology, Dynamics of Glaciers, Climatic Data Analysis and Runoff Modeling. ····· 1036120687

Lake Responses to External Forcing

The ability to determine the responses to changes in external or controlling factors in the form of cause-and-effect relations is the corner stone for management of a lake system. It is well recognized that understanding of the mean circulation of a lake is important for many ecological and management issues. This book is concerned with the distribution of surficial sediment and variation of water quality parameters under major influences of wind forcing and major rivers inflows in Lake Abaya, the largest Ethiopian Rift Valley Lake. Spatial and temporal variability of physical parameters are presented and the interrelationships between variables are discussed. The results were interpreted in terms of the direction and magnitude of wind forcing, nature of sediment distribution, bathymetry, and major inflow that determine possible pattern and strength of circulation. The observed spatial and temporal variability of physical variables allowed estimating general circulation pattern. Lake Responses to External Forcing will be of particular interest to researchers and professionals actively involved in lake hydrodynamics and management. ····· 1036121390

Watershed Management

····· lezzter Preis 71.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Watershed is a geo-hydrological unit draining runoff water at a common point and it could be demarcated based on ridge line. Watershed approach for optimal planning, development and management aims at harnessing resource for sustainable development and better living. The factors that play a greater role in planning and development process of a watershed are its size, shape, physiography, climate, rainfall, slope, drainage, geomorphology, land use/land cover, soils, runoff and groundwater etc. Watershed management is unique approach for development of rainfed areas on sustainable basis. The fastly emerging spatial information technology (SIT) has effective tools to overcome most of the problems of land and water resources planning on account of usage of conventional methods of data management. SIT permits interactive querying and mapping of spatially referenced information and its main purpose is to deliver the geographic information on different areas, allowing users to visualize, analyze and integrate various types of data. SIT has the capacity of full range of functions to achieve its purpose related to observations, measurement and description, forecasting and decision making. ····· 1036124777

Climate Change and Hydrological Systems

····· lezzter Preis 71.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Global Circulation Models (GCMs) are a major tool used for climate change projections under different emission scenarios. However, for assessing the hydrological impacts of climate change at watershed scale, GCM outputs cannot be used directly owing to the mismatch in spatial resolution between the GCMs and hydrological models. Thus a downscaling scheme (either statistical or dynamical) is employed. For hydrologic impact assessment studies, statistical downscaling is usually preferred over dynamical downscaling and among the variables usually downscaled, precipitation downscaling is more challenging than downscaling of other climatological variables. Therefore, this book is specifically focusing on addressing some of the contemporary issues in statistically downscaling of precipitation at watershed scale. Studies presented in this book make use of two widely used downscaling methods i.e. multiple linear regression and stochastic weather generator. Also, a new downscaling methodology using Gene Expression Programming (GEP) has been proposed. The issues discussed and analyzed in this book will facilitate further research in the area of statistical downscaling for hydrologic studies. ····· 1036125097

With advances in sensor technology and the inclusion of low cost consumer grade sensors in portable systems like smart-phones, pedestrian navigation using such devices has become a reality. With consumer grade sensors comes a Pandora s Box full of errors rendering the unaided navigation solution with these sensors of limited use. A significant contribution to the overall navigation error budget associated with pedestrian navigation is accurate attitude estimation. This research develops different sensor fusion techniques to utilize the Earth s magnetic field for attitude and rate gyroscope error estimation in pedestrian navigation environments where it is assumed that GNSS is denied. A novel Quasi-Static magnetic Field (QSF) based attitude and angular rate error estimation technique is developed to effectively use magnetic measurements in highly perturbed environments. This technique is used with the proposed Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) based attitude estimator for hand-held devices. Results indicate that the proposed algorithms effectively estimate attitude and gyroscope errors, reducing the overall navigation error budget by over 80% in the urban and indoor environments. ····· 1036191398

Environmental impacts from acid sulfate soils (ASS) result from the characteristics of the pore water chemistry, yet there has been only limited research in this area due to the difficulties in sampling the pore waters of these soils. This book reports the use of in-situ, diffusion-controlled, dialysis samplers to follow spatial changes in pore water chemistry of ASS profiles in an estuarine floodplain of eastern Australia. The environment of deposition of the Holocene-age ASS was determined by fossil analysis of pollen, forams, and shells. The upward stratigraphic transitions from terrestrial freshwater, to marine, to estuarine, to terrestrial freshwater were determined, and estimates made of the aquatic salinities and ecologies. Mineral phases predicted from the pore water chemistry were confirmed by XRD analysis. A diffusion analysis of the pore water profiles estimated the time of sulfide oxidation and minimal rate of acid production at the site. The chloride concentration profile gave an upward flux of about 660 kg/ha.yr and a time of about 2000 years for the profile`s exposure to fresh surface waters. ····· 1036191578

This book deals with earthquake prediction and physical mechanisms of Seismo-electromagnetic (SEM) emissions. SEM emissions are the most promising area of research, to monitor and analyze the effects in the earth and ionosphere that occur several days to few hours before the earthquake. This area of science may very well provide the foundation for earthquake forecasting. This book is aimed to detect the SEM emissions for the earthquake forecasting on ground based and satellites based methods. Especially, ULF emissions are promising candidate for earthquake prediction. This frequency range is easily detected at the earth s surface because of the deeper skin depth effect and low attenuation than that of higher frequency. In this book, analysis of ULF data for spectral density, polarization analysis, fractal analysis and Schumann Resonance Phenomenon, has been shown. This book also contains possible statistical correlation between ionospheric perturbations and earthquakes. Ionospheric perturbations constituted by variations of temperature and density of ionic and electronic components of ionospheric plasma were detected insitu DEMETER and SROSS-C2 satellites. ····· 1036191646

Blast Design Using High Speed Video Camera in Coal Measure Rocks

An ever-growing demand for coal and non-coal minerals has necessitated the adoption of mega-blast in conjunction with high capacity excavating equipment. Therefore blast design and its optimization have attracted special attention in the mining industry under the current scenario of tight fiscal constraints. Various researchers suggested unequivocally that the overall mining cost is largely influenced by blasting performance and the entire mining cycle may be jeopardised due to improper blast design. Blasting performance of an explosive is dependent on its detonic properties, the rock mass response to dynamic explosive loading and the confinement provided by the blast design. A new blast design approach has been developed in this book to design the blast using high speed video camera. This new design approach will be helpful in designing the complex blasts in mines. ····· 1036191720

Optical spectroscopy is a well-developed scientific method to retrieve atmospheric constituents. A simple methodology is to study the interactions of a light source with the atmosphere. Examples of the interactions include absorption and scattering effect due to air molecules and aerosols. Depending on the trace gases or aerosols intended to be measured, different methodologies are applied. Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) is widely employed for the trace gas retrieval whereas analysis of scattering process is used to determine the aerosol features. Experimentally, to retrieve nitrogen dioxide, either direct sunlight or an artificial broadband light source can be used, and the DOAS method is used to analyze the residual light intensity. To retrieve water vapor column densities, the Langley method is employed. In addition, to characterize aerosol features, diffuse sunlight is analyzed.

The Middle-Upper Eocene sediments of the Fayum District are represented by Gehannam, Birket Qarun and Qasr El-Sagha formations. Both field studies and laboratory analyses on the concerned sediments have enabled to distinguish six lithofacies. These lithofacies proved that the present sediments were deposited in transitional paralic environment of active northward - prograding deltaic subenvironments contemporaneous with rabid but gradual sea level drop. It is started with the delta front silt-shale (Gehannam Formation) of 20 m thick, followed by distributary mouth bars of cross-bedded sandstone (Birket Qarun Formation, of 50 m thick). Both the lower and upper delta plains attain thicknesses of 99 m and 38 m prospectively and are represented by the lower part of Qasr El-Sagha Formation. The deltaic sequence is topped with 45 m thick of aeolian sands representing the upper part of Qasr El-Sagha Formation. This unit represents an extensive desertification phase closes the depositional history of the succession examined. ····· 1036198504

Urban watershed management in India - Potential and Perspective

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Rapid growth of cities across the world is leading to heavy pressure on water resources with many urban centers facing crisis in water supply. Due to lack of advance planning and indiscriminate use of resources, ground water levels are getting depleted and productive lands are turning into `Concrete wasteland`. The situation is worst in the third world countries, where most of the rivers have been turned into sewers/neglected courses. This has resulted in loss of natural habitat and hampered the natural regeneration of river health. The case study gives insight into the underlying socioeconomic reasons for the problem and suggests corrective measures for the rejuvenation of the decaying river in the cities. Geomatics technology has been extensively used in this study to evaluate the effects of alternative landuse management practices on water resources at the micro-watershed level. A proto- type watershed management decision support system (D.S.S)has been conceptualized to identify the relative contribution of sub-watersheds to the river. The study will be immensely useful for the ongoing / proposed river rejuvenation programmes across the cities of world. ····· 10361115099

En este trabajo de tesis doctoral se evalúa el comportamiento del sistema mortero de cemento-bentonita (relevante en un Almacenamiento Geológico Profundo de Residuos Radiactivos de Alta Actividad) mediante técnicas experimentales y códigos geoquímicos de simulación. Una columna de bentonita compactada se puso en contacto con un mortero de cemento. Dos disoluciones alcalinas (Ca(OH)2 saturada y NaOH 0.25 M) fueron inyectadas desde el lado del mortero de cemento a 25, 60 y 120 ºC durante un año. La disolución de Ca(OH)2 saturada no altera la mineralogía en la escala de tiempo experimental. La disolución de NaOH produce cambios menores a 60-25 ºC, pero a 120 ºC se produce una alteración heterogénea repartida por toda la probeta de bentonita. Los códigos de transporte reactivo PHREEQC y CRUNCHFLOW reproducen la reactividad observada experimentalmente en la interfase mortero de cemento - bentonita, sin embargo, no son capaces aun de representar correctamente algunos de los procesos que ocurren en el sistema. ····· 10361116437

Management of Topsoil

Mineral extraction process must ensure the return of the productivity of the affected land.This monograph develops a new concept of shelf life period up to which mine soil can maintain its sustainability for suitable plant growth. Topsoil preservation is extremely important for the geo-environmental reclamation of damaged land due to mining. The issue is the preservation of topsoil in such a manner as to protect its productivity for later use in restoration of mined land. This problem is very much acute and large areas are continually being biologically unproductive every year. Efforts to grow vegetation on overburden dumps and degraded mined lands as a part of biological reclamation are not being successful. This concept reveals a hypothesis that if the biological reclamation is not done within the shelf life period the soil will become biologically sterile and it will be difficult to revive its productivity. This research identifies that the reason behind the biological sterility is the lack of knowledge of shelf life concept. Significance in the field of environmental protection this Monograph are immense and it will help to reclaim the degraded mine land effectively. ····· 10361118375

This book presents a gravimetric-isostatic model to determine the Earth`s crustal thickness and its geodetic applications, which is great interest for geoscientists. The main reasons for studying an isostatic model are on one hand the gaps and uncertainties of the seismic models, and, on the other hand, the generous availability of gravity data from global models for the gravimetric-isostatic model. In this study, we present a new gravimetric- isostatic Moho model, called the Vening Meinesz- Moritz (VMM) model. The application of the VMM Moho model could be in estimating the Moho density contrast, studying the dynamics of the mantle or studying the deep-seated inhomogeneities of the Earth`s mantle by gravity field analysis, smoothing the gravity field for downward continuation of the gravity field from the above surface of the Earth (from satellite mission e.g. GOCE) to the mean sea level. ····· 10361119573

The main focus here is to understand the Asian Summer Monsoon onset processes. The process is of 70-day duration starting from 15 pentads before the monsoon onset over Kerala, when a large convective heat source forms over north Indian Ocean and adjoining West Pacific, which generates a fully developed cross equatorial Low Level Jet stream. During this process there is formation of a warm pool over the Bay of Bengal first followed by a warm pool over the Arabian Sea and active air-sea interaction. We then developed a method for an objective determination of the date of monsoon onset over Kerala for operational use. Using this method we have objectively derived the onset dates for each year of the period 1960 to 2003. The simulation of the positive feedback process between the convection and low-level wind field associated with the summer monsoon Onset is tried next using an atmospheric General Circulation Model. We also devised methods for predicting the date of monsoon onset more than a week ahead. ····· 10361119692

Arsenic, A Silent Killer

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Arsenic is a highly toxic and ubiquitous metalloid dispersed throughout the earth s crust. A devastating health crisis has been unfolded in many parts of the world, due to arsenic enrichment, most likely of natural origin, of groundwater used for drinking and cooking. The mobilization of arsenic from aquifer materials usually occurs under reducing conditions and is microbially mediated. In Bangladesh elevated dissolved As concentrations in groundwater were found mostly in the form of inorganic arsenic as arsenite, detected by several analytical techniques including one that uses a modified colorimetric method. However, time series data suggest that variations in groundwater As concentrations were considerably less in comparison to other redox-sensitive elements such as Fe, Mn and S, suggesting that there are significant decoupling between mobilization of As and Fe, Mn. The results from a series of laboratory microcosm experiments using a representative natural sediment sample collected from Araihazar, Bangladesh raised a major concern that irrespective to Fe, Mn reduction, metal reducers can increase As mobility by converting sedimentary As to a more mobilizable and reduced form. ····· 10361131796

Gas/particle mass transfer process plays an important role in determining aerosol mass concentrations and shaping aerosol size distribution. Its treatments in three dimensional (3-D) Air Quality Models (AQMs), however, are largely uncertain. In this thesis work, the gas/particle mass transfer approaches in an aerosol module are improved and evaluated to identify an accurate yet computationally efficient approach for use in 3-D AQMs. The aerosol module with the improved gas/particle mass transfer approaches has been incorporated into a state-of-science air quality forecasting (AQF) system. The resulted modeling system has been applied in many cases to investigate the air pollution issues in the United States. Using the improved air quality modeling system, the prediction of air quality under many circumstances is shown significantly improved.

Mechanics of Catastrophic Landslides

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The mechanics of the final collapse of large slope failures are still poorly understood, and have constituted a challenge to scientists over the last 40 years. The reasons why some observed catastrophic landslides moved so fast and so far cannot always be explained using standard analyses. Much better understanding is needed to facilitate risk assessment and hazard mitigation measures. In this book, a new model is proposed accounting for temperature rise in the slip zone due to the heat produced by friction, leading to thermoplastic collapse of the soil skeleton and subsequent increase of pore water pressure. This in turn drastically decreases the shear resistance and allows the overlying mass to move downslope ever more freely. The model is validated by back-analysing two case histories, and is then employed in a parametric study to identify the most influential parameters in promoting catastrophic collapse. The results are relevant both for consulting engineers, to better design mitigation measures, and to the research community, by providing a background model through which the interpretation of past landslides can be attempted and more refined landslide models can be developed. ····· 10361136023

El principal objetivo es mostrarle al lector que los estudios realizados desde una perspectiva ingenieril deben complementarse con la identificación y análisis de factores humanos de vulnerabilidad para soportar de una manera más eficaz la toma de decisiones en cuanto al diseño y ejecución de medidas de mitigación. ····· 10361136524

Troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, where the temperature decreases with increasing altitude. The prime objective of this dissertation is the characterization of various atmospheric processes ranging from a few kilometers to a few hundreds of kilometers taking place within this layer over the southern part of Indian sub-continent with the aid of numerical atmospheric models and observational data. With a view to broadening our understanding on some of the interesting atmospheric events such as Sea/Land Breeze Circulation (SLBC), Mountain Waves, and Thunderstorms, hitherto not attempted very much in an analytical and quantitative sense by many researchers the world over. --- S.

Continental Arc Granitoids: case studies from Sinai

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book investigates the geology, petrology, geochemistry and petrogenesis of some old granite plutons in Sinai as a typical example for the orogenic continental arc granitoids. It presents comprehensive view on their field and petrographic characteristics including country rocks, nature of contacts, outcrop morphology, mineralogy, texture, structure and enclaves and xenolithes. All of these granitic plutons have an explicit calc-alkaline nature, and a prevalent metaluminous character. Their magmatic evolution was interpreted in terms of simple fractional crystallization accompanied by slight mixing processes. Melt temperatures attained during their formation were estimated between 740-924°C. They are distinguished as high-temperature tonalitic (Cordilleran) I-type granites that were derived by partial melting of infracrustal mafic M-type rocks of primitive island arcs, underplated beneath the crust in the deep crust or perhaps modified mantle. Paleotectonic environment investigations infer that they are continental arc granites intruded at active continental margin prior to plate collision by partial melting of infracrustal mafic rocks underplated beneath the continental crust ····· 10361146879

Aerosol characteristics over coastal India and adjoining oceans

Investigations on the spatial, spectral and temporal characteristics of atmospheric aerosols are carried over Arabian Sea, Tropical Indian Ocean and Coastal India during the northern hemispheric winter (the Asian dry season of January to March) with focus on Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX), based on the extensive measurements of spectral aerosol optical depths over the oceanic regions and a network of ground-based Sunphotometers over Coastal India. The measured spectral optical depths are used for retrieving the aerosol columnar size distribution, characterize and parameterize the spatial gradients, and examine their inter-annual variability. The study demonstrates the significance of continental proximity, advection by the prevailing winds, and long-range transport by air trajectories from distant source regions in controlling the spatial in-homogeneity in the distribution of aerosols over the Arabian Sea and Tropical Indian Ocean. This study also exhibits that aerosol characteristics over coastal India during winter season is significantly influenced by the large-scale atmospheric dynamics associated with the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone and its location due south of equator. ····· 10361146946

Geo-Environmental Assessment and Landuse Planning for Coastal Plains

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Preparing new areas for development requires intensive geo-environmental assessment and precise planning. Integration of remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), along with ground investigation, can provide critical information needed for environmental assessment and landuse planning. The aim of this work is to provide geospatial data and analysis results that can guide planners and decision makers who are interested in establishing development activities in promising coastal plains. One of the main risks that may affect the development projects in the area is the flash flood potential. Consequently, the hydrologic setting was delineated and a flash flood index map was created that shows the areas that may be subjected to flash flood threats. The coastline also was evaluated environmentally in two ways: 1) its susceptibility to sand encroachment due to wind-transported sand and 2) its sensitivity to oil spills. Three GIS models were created to evaluate the suitability of the study area for landuse development dependent upon the main environmental and physical factors and conditions that may influence the suggested landuse development activities. ····· 10361147385

Representación Geométrica de Registros de Precipitación en Bogotá

La precipitación, como uno de los procesos geofísicos de alta complejidad, exhibe la existencia de una estructura multifractal en su descripción. La identificación de patrones multifractales sobre datos observados en registros pluviográficos, sugieren la estimación de atributos estadísticos no lineales concebidos para tal efecto, como son los espectros multifractales. Estos estadísticos han sido introducidos en procesos de análisis no lineal de series de tiempo, tanto en su estructura como en el interés por preservarlos. No obstante, en años recientes una nueva aproximación ha sido desarrollada para la modelación en geofísica, conocida bajo el nombre de Modelo Fractal Multifractal (FM), que además de apoyarse en medidas multifractales y funciones de interpolación fractal, presenta dos rasgos fundamentales que lo diferencia de otros modelos: i) es de naturaleza determinística, y ii) no pretende sólo preservar algunos estadísticos del observable, sino toda la textura registrada. Las señales así simuladas, pueden ser concebidas como observables en el tiempo y/o en el espacio n-dimensional, y sus texturas evocan la geometría observada en los registros hidrológicos. ····· 1036122018

En este trabajo se describen y discuten los métodos empleados para evaluar el impacto del cambio climático en los glaciares del complejo volcánico Nevado Coropuna (Andes Tropicales del Sur de Perú). Su interés se debe a tres razones principales: 1) Esos glaciares constituyen la principal reserva de la que depende el abastecimiento de agua de varias decenas de miles de personas. 2) La localización vulnerable del poblamiento en el fondo de los valles y la amenaza de una fusión repentina del hielo, por causas volcánicas, tectónicas o climáticas, configuran un preocupante escenario de riesgo. 3) La evolución del clima ha quedado registrada en las formas del relieve generadas por las fases de expansión y retroceso de los glaciares. La hipótesis en la que se ha basado la investigación es que el impacto del cambio climático en los glaciares puede evaluarse calculando el desnivel entre una ELA geomorfológica, deducida de su forma, y una ELA climática, que expresa el estado de las condiciones ambientales de las que depende su balance de masa. La ELA (Equilibrium Line Altitude) es la altitud de la línea de equilibrio de los glaciares, que separa su zona de acumulación de su zona de ablación ····· 103612990

Se presenta un procedimiento para evaluar de forma cuantitativa el riesgo por deslizamientos teniendo en cuenta la peligrosidad, los elementos expuestos y su vulnerabilidad. El método utiliza los modelos de susceptibilidad obtenidos previamente a partir de las relaciones estadísticas existentes entre los deslizamientos ocurridos en el pasado y una serie de parámetros del terreno relacionados con la inestabilidad. La frecuencia de deslizamientos en el pasado se ha utilizado para estimar frecuencias futuras. También se ha realizado un inventario y cartografía de los elementos afectados por deslizamientos en el pasado, y se han estimado los daños para cada tipo de elemento teniendo en cuenta la magnitud del tipo de deslizamiento analizado. Posteriormente se estimó la vulnerabilidad a partir de la comparación entre pérdidas y valor del elemento afectado. La integración de la peligrosidad, vulnerabilidad y valor del elemento ha permitido obtener modelos de riesgo directo e indirecto por deslizamientos para cada tipo de elemento. El resultado final es un mapa de riesgo donde cada píxel muestra las pérdidas esperables por deslizamientos en los próximos 50 años. ····· 1036121812

Muchos son los esfuerzos que se han realizado en el estudio del conocimiento del comportamiento dinámico de los suelos granulares, sobre todo en estado suelto, al ser ésta una situación crítica sin embargo, menos atención han recibido los suelos cohesivos blandos. El objetivo fundamental de este trabajo de investigación ha consistido en el estudio del comportamiento dinámico de los suelos blandos, particularmente cohesivos, que permita desarrollar su modelización constitutiva. Se pretende integrar dentro de un mismo modelo marco las diferentes tendencias de comportamiento tensión-deformación observadas según los diferentes estados de combinación de tensión estática y cíclica y que permita reproducir adecuadamente la generación de presión intersticial en exceso y el fenómeno de degradación para los suelos blandos. Además, se pretende que la formulación constitutiva planteada sirva para problemas más generales y pueda ser utilizada para aplicaciones prácticas. Ello obliga a dotar de sentido físico claro a los parámetros utilizados que deben poder deducirse de ensayos bien conocidos y a la adecuada implementación numérica del modelo empleado. ····· 1036122284

En esta tesis doctoral se propone una metodología para la creación de mapas de peligros naturales en la provincia de Gipuzkoa. La metodología contempla los tres peligros naturales más habituales en dicho territorio: inundaciones fluviales, incendios forestales y movimientos de ladera. El peligro de movimientos de ladera es evaluado mediante un modelo cualitativo. El peligro de incendios se obtiene a partir de simulaciones múltiples sobre la base de escenarios y situaciones de peligro. Finalmente, aplicando un modelo hidrometeorológico seguido de uno hidráulico, se calcula el peligro de inundación fluvial. Además, se combinan, de manera ponderada, los mapas derivados de los tres peligros considerados, obteniéndose un mapa de peligro natural múltiple. Dicha metodología ha sido aplicada en una zona concreta de Gipuzkoa: el valle de Oiartzun. ····· 1036190930

El objetivo de este trabajo era evaluar el estado de la calidad de las aguas superficiales y subterráneas del acuífero Cuaternario de Vitoria-Gasteiz, cuyo Sector Oriental fue declarado Zona Vulnerable a la contaminación por nitratos. Los resultados obtenidos de la presente investigación demuestran que las actuaciones implementadas en la Zona Vulnerable han inducido a una importante disminución del contenido de nitratos. Sin embargo, éstas no han sido suficientes, hasta el momento, para estabilizar el contenido por debajo del límite máximo permitido por la Directiva Europea (50 mgNO3-/L). La presencia del Humedal de Salburua dentro de la Zona Vulnerable ha permitido evidenciar que este singular enclave juega un trascendental papel como atenuador de nitratos. Los procesos de desnitrificación bacteriana son los máximos responsables de la mejora puntual de la calidad de las aguas en este humedal. ····· 10361136238

Su presencia ha facilitado la urbanización de la población, pero el aumento de velocidad, la disposición de más carreteras y la reducción de costes percibidos, han facilitado la dispersión de las actividades y de la población, haciendo que cada vez se viaje más, a mayores distancias y en modos motorizados. El automóvil no sólo cubre las grandes distancias, frecuentemente se utiliza para viajes cortos, que podrían ser realizados en bicicleta, en transporte público e inclusive a pie. En Europa, más del 50% de los viajes en coche cubren distancias inferiores a 8,0 km y de ellos, más de la mitad son inferiores a 3,0 km. Considerando que debe primar el interés general , se requieren estrategias que eviten desequilibrios y sesgos, que promuevan la sostenibilidad y que favorezcan a los grupos en desventaja, principalmente. Este texto se orienta a establecer una metodología para identificar el potencial de viajes transferibles desde el automóvil y para determinar desde el punto de vista de la sociedad, los beneficios que se obtendría con un reparto modal consistente con los costes verdaderos. ····· 10361136853

El presente trabajo de investigación se centra en encontrar y medir los atributos endógenos y exógenos con una mayor incidencia sobre el precio de los inmuebles, los cuales delimitan y modulan el mercado inmobiliario de la ciudad, de cara a construir un parámetro integrador de estos factores de localización (FL), en función de sus características particulares de ubicación, atributos constructivos y condiciones socioeconómicas de carácter local. El documento reporta los resultados de una investigación que tiene por objeto conocer cuáles son los factores locativos que diversifican el valor de los bienes inmuebles en la ciudad de Mazatlán, Sinaloa, México, a través de tres metodologías de aproximación, los cuales son: 1)Método Delphi (MD) basada en encuestas realizadas a expertos. 2)Método de los precios hedónicos (MPH), utilizando un análisis econométrico, construido a partir de un estudio de mercado propio y finalmente 3)Método de regresiones geográficamente ponderadas (RGP), una derivada del MPH, donde se incluye en el análisis, las influencias de las características de inmuebles vecinos inmediatos, así como su posición geográfica. ····· 10361136896

Este libro propone una aproximación transdisciplinar al objeto más importante para cualquier ser humano, aparte de su cuerpo... ¿Es la Tierra una nave gigante que transporta a la humanidad por el espacio ¿No es más que una gran bola de piedra estructurada en capas ¿Es acaso un enorme termostato que autorregula su temperatura interna ¿Es un superorganismo Todo esto, y mucho más, le sugiere al ser humano su propio planeta, foco inspirador de visiones del mundo desde la más remota antigüedad. Y hoy por hoy, recordatorio permanente de la muy inestable y arriesgada relación que el Hombre mantiene con la Naturaleza. ····· 10361137266

Solución de problemas de flujo no lineales a través de ELLAM

Se presenta una metodología para aplicar el método euleriano-lagrangiano localizado adjunto (ELLAM) a las ecuaciones de flujo y transporte no lineal en un medio poroso. La aplicación se realiza a la ecuación de advección-difusión-reacción y a la ecuación del flujo del agua en un suelo (ecuación de Richards) en dos dimensiones. La metodología consiste en aplicar previamente una técnica de linealización tipo Taylor-Fréchét. Esta linealización es básicamente una expansión alrededor de valores de la variable dependiente en un paso de tiempo previo, a lo largo de las líneas características. En esta expansión, los términos de segundo orden se desprecian, generándose un operador modificado lineal. Tal estrategia permite obtener una aproximación de segundo orden de precisión en el tiempo, independientemente si se emplea una técnica iterativa o no iterativa. Un análisis de la propagación de propiedades numéricas para la ecuación de transporte lineal, muestra que ELLAM no tiene errores de fase lo cual hace que esta metodología solucione de forma muy precisa problemas fuertemente dominados por advección. ····· 10361137371
