PREDICTION OF SEISMIC GROUND MOTION IN THAWING PERMAFROST AREAS

Dzhurik V.I.; Drennov A.F. (1996)

Based on direct geophysical measurements and theoretical calculations a new approach was developed to the prediction of maximum seismic ground motion in areas with disturbed permafrost soils. This approach was implemented ...

PREDICTION OF SOIL WATER RETENTION USING SOIL PHYSICAL DATA AND TERRAIN ATTRIBUTES

Romano N.; Palladino M. (2002)

Characterization of soil hydraulic behavior at large scales using traditional methods is time-consuming and very costly. Efficient and cheap means of providing hydrological models with such information are procedures based ...

PREDICTION OF SURFACE CHARGE ON OXIDES IN SALT SOLUTIONS: REVISIONS FOR 1:1 (M+L-) ELECTROLYTES

Sverjensky D.A. (2005)

Quantitative characterization of the development of proton surface charge on the surfaces of minerals is necessary for a fundamental understanding of reactions between minerals and aqueous electrolyte solutions. Despite ...

PREDICTION OF THE 1983 KUM-DAG AND THE 1984 BURUN EARTHQUAKES

Guin I.E. (1990)

The frequency of occurrence of shocks within a zone depends upon the rate of tectonic movements and the dimensions of the foci. In some zones, shocks occur in various segments of the zone at intervals of tens of years; in ...

PREDICTION OF THE CHIMTEPPA EARTHQUAKE OF 1966 AND THE GISSAR EARTHQUAKE OF 1989

Gubin I.Ye. (1990)

The earthquake discussed occurred in Tajikistan, along the southern boundary of the Gissar Valley. In 1980, I have emphasized that in detailed, large-scale seismic zoning for the purpose of planning earthquake-resistant ...

PREDICTION OF THE COMPOSITION OF CHROME SPINEL ON THE BASIS OF THE SUBSOLIDUS HISTORY OF THE PARENT ULTRAMAFIC ROCKS

Avdontsev S.N. (1988)

To interpret the diffusional processes that bring about correlated change in the chemistry of coexisting olivines and chrome spinels, one can use the model of a semiinfinite composite sphere or the novel method of kinetic ...

PREDICTION OF THE GIBBS ENERGIES AND AN IMPROVED EQUATION OF STATE FOR WATER AT EXTREME CONDITIONS FROM AB INITIO ENERGIES WITH CLASSICAL SIMULATIONS

Sakane S.; Liu W.; Doren D.J.; Wood R.H.; Shock E.L. (2001)

The hydration free energies of water at two state points (2344 K and 1.0 g/cm3, and 2000 K and 1.8 g/cm3) were calculated using the ABC-FEP method (Wood et al., 1999) that combines interaction energies calculated from ab ...

PREDICTION OF THE HYDROCARBON SYSTEM IN EXHUMED BASINS, AND APPLICATION TO THE NW EUROPEAN MARGIN

Doré A.G.; Corcoran D.V.; Scotchman I.C. (2002)

Uplift, erosion and removal of overburden have profound effects on sedimentary basins and the hydrocarbon systems they contain. These effects are predictable from theory and from observation of explored exhumed basins. ...

PREDICTION OF THE THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES AND RELATIVE STABILITY OF ANHYDRITE

Dubrovinskiy L.S.; Rubin S.G.; Iskhakova K.D.; Urusov R.S. (1990)

The dehydration of gypsum CaSO4·H2O and the crystal structure of the resulting compounds have often been investigated. But the published data on the temperature intervals in which the various phases can exist in the ...

PREDICTION OF THE THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF AQUEOUS METAL COMPLEXES TO 1000OC AND 5 KB

Sverjensky D.A.; Shock E.L.; Helgeson H.C. (1997)

A large number of aqueous metal complexes contribute significantly to hydrothermal, metamorphic, and magmatic processes in the crust of the Earth. Nevertheless, relatively few thermodynamic data other than dissociation ...

PREDICTION OF THE VAPOR-LIQUID DISTRIBUTION CONSTANTS FOR VOLATILE NONELECTROLYTES IN WATER UP TO ITS CRITICAL TEMPERATURE

Plyasunov A.V.; Shock E.L. (2003)

The distribution of solutes between coexisting liquid and vapor phases of water can be expressed by the distribution constant, KD, defined as where y and x stand for the mole fraction concentrations of a solute in vapor ...

PREDICTION OF TRACE METAL PARTITIONING BETWEEN MINERALS AND AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS: A LINEAR FREE ENERGY CORRELATION APPROACH

Wang Y.; Xu H. (2001)

Trace metal partitioning between authigenic minerals and aqueous solutions is of great interest to both geochemical and environmental communities. In this paper, we have developed a linear free energy correlation model ...

PREDICTIONS OF GAS HYDRATE PHASE EQUILIBRIA AND AMOUNTS IN NATURAL SEDIMENT POROUS MEDIA

Klauda J.B.; Sandler S.I. (2003)

Hydrates in marine sediments are estimated to contain more methane than conventional reserves. Previous estimates of the amounts of methane hydrate ignore pore size effects and variations in hydrate saturation of the pore ...
