COUPLED MODELING OF THE HYDROLOGICAL AND CARBON CYCLES IN THE SOIL-VEGETATION-ATMOSPHERE SYSTEM

Kuchment L.S.; Demidov V.N.; Startseva Z.P. (2006)

A coupled model of the hydrological and carbon cycles in the soil-vegetation-atmosphere system is suggested. The model describes the interception and evaporation of precipitation by canopy, transpiration, vertical transfer ...
PLEISTOCENE-HOLOCENE CALCAREOUS NANNOFOSSIL BIOSTRATIGRAPHY OF CORE SAMPLES FROM THE NORTHEASTERN SEA OF MARMARA, FENERBAHçE-PENDIK, NW TURKEY

Yildiz A.; Toker V. (2006)

Pseudoemiliana lacunosa, Gephyrocapsa oceanica and Emiliania huxleyi (Ionian) (Pleistocene-Holocene) calcareous nannoplankton zones were identified from 82 samples of 14 cores taken from 8 locations in the northeastern Sea ...
THE PERMIAN BIOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE KOLYMA-OMOLON REGION, NORTHEAST ASIA

Ganelin V.G.; Biakov A.S. (2006)

The main features of the tectonics, Permian paleogeography, biota, structural-facies zonation of the Kolyma-Omolon region are analysed. The characteristics of the Permian regional stratigraphic scale of the Kolyma-Omolon ...
IMAGING STRAIN LOCALIZATION BY X-RAY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY: DISCRETE COMPACTION BANDS IN DIEMELSTADT SANDSTONE

Louis L.; Wong T.-f.; Tembe S.; Baud P. (2006)

Compaction localization was observed in Diemelstadt sandstone during triaxial experiments over a broad range of effective pressures (60-165 MPa). High resolution X-ray CT imaging was used to resolve the 3D the geometry of ...
PHYSIOGRAPHY AND TECTONIC SETTING OF THE SUBGLACIAL LAKE DISTRICT BETWEEN VOSTOK AND BELGICA SUBGLACIAL HIGHLANDS (ANTARCTICA)

Tabacco I.E.; Forieri A.; Cianfarra P.; Salvini F.; Zirizotti A. (2006)

We present the interpretation of 11 radio echo-sounding (RES) missions carried out over the Vostok-Dome Concordia region during the Italian Antarctic expeditions in the period 1995-2001. The extension and the density of ...
ANALOGUE BENCHMARKS OF SHORTENING AND EXTENSION EXPERIMENTS

Schreurs G.; Buiter S.J.H.; Boutelier D.; Cruden A.R.; Corti G.; Costa E.; Cavozzi C.; Daniel J.-M.; Mengus J.-M.; Hoth S.; Kukowski N.; Lohrmann J.; Hoffmann-Rothe A.; Koyi H.A.; Nilforoushan F.; Ravaglia A.; Schlische R.W.; Withjack M.O.; Elder Brady J.A.; Yamada Y.et al. (2006)

We report a direct comparison of scaled analogue experiments to test the reproducibility of model results among ten different experimental modelling laboratories. We present results for two experiments: a brittle thrust ...
SMALL-ANGLE AVO RESPONSE OF PS-WAVES IN TILTED TRANSVERSELY ISOTROPIC MEDIA

Behura J.; Tsvankin I. (2006)

Field records for small source-receiver offsets often contain intensive converted PS-waves that may be caused by the influence of anisotropy on either side of the reflector. Here, we study the small-angle reflection ...
FLOODING DYNAMICS IN A LARGE LOW-GRADIENT ALLUVIAL FAN, THE OKAVANGO DELTA, BOTSWANA, FROM ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF A 30-YEAR HYDROMETRIC RECORD

Wolski P.; Murray-Hudson M. (2006)

The Okavango Delta is a flood-pulsed wetland, which supports a large tourism industry and the subsistence of the local population through the provision of ecosystem services. In order to obtain insight into the influence ...
DEFORMATION AND METAMORPHISM AT THE EASTERN BORDER OF THE TENDA MASSIF (NE CORSICA): A RECORD OF SUBDUCTION AND EXHUMATION OF CONTINENTAL CRUST

Molli G.; Tribuzio R.; Marquer D. (2006)

A major detachment fault related to the post-orogenic extensional process and linked with rifting and drifting stages of the Liguro-Provençal and Northern Thyrrhenian sea, is described in recent literature for the eastern ...
FIRST DIRECTIONAL ARCHAEOMAGNETIC RESULTS FROM SYRIA: EVIDENCE FROM TELL MISHRIFEH/QATNA

Speranza F.; Maritan L.; Mazzoli C.; Morandi Bonacossi D.; D'Ajello Caracciolo F. (2006)

We report on the first archaeomagnetic directional data obtained from Syria. Reliable palaeomagnetic directionswere collected from four pyrotechnological archaeological structures dated by type of pottery and radiocarbon ...
PATTERN DYNAMICS, PATTERN HIERARCHIES, AND FORECASTING IN COMPLEX MULTI-SCALE EARTH SYSTEMS

Rundle J.B.; Rundle P.B.; Yakovlev G.; Shcherbakov R.; Turcotte D.L.; Donnellan A.; Klein W. (2006)

Catastrophic disasters afflicting human society are often triggered by tsunamis, earthquakes, widespread flooding, and weather and climate events. As human populations increasingly move into geographic areas affected by ...
INTERPRETATION OF SUBHORIZONTAL CRUSTAL REFLECTIONS BY METAMORPHIC AND RHEOLOGIC EFFECTS IN THE EASTERN PART OF THE PANNONIAN BASIN

Posgay K.; Bodoky T.; Fancsik T.; Hegedus E.; Kovács A.Cs.; Takács E.; Hajnal Z.; Tóth T.M. (2006)

The geologic origin of subhorizontal reflections, often observed in crustal seismic sections, was investigated by establishing metamorphic facies and strength of rocks in depth, and correlating these properties to seismic ...
A STATISTICAL POST-PROCESSOR FOR ACCOUNTING OF HYDROLOGIC UNCERTAINTY IN SHORT-RANGE ENSEMBLE STREAMFLOW PREDICTION

Seo D.-J.; Herr H.D.; Schaake J.C. (2006)

In addition to the uncertainty in future boundary conditions of precipitation and temperature (i.e. the meteorological uncertainty), parametric and structural uncertainties in the hydrologic models and uncertainty in the ...
A MULTIMODEL ENSEMBLE APPROACH TO ASSESSMENT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS ON THE HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES OF THE COLORADO RIVER BASIN

Christensen N.; Lettenmaier D.P. (2006)

Implications of 21st century climate change on the hydrology and water resources of the Colorado River basin were assessed using a multimodel ensemble approach in which downscaled and bias corrected output from 11 General ...
CRYSTAL MOLDS ON MARS: MELTING OF A POSSIBLE NEW MINERAL SPECIES TO CREATE MARTIAN CHAOTIC TERRAIN

Peterson R.C.; Wang R. (2006)

Images sent back by the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity from the Meridiani Planum show sulfate-rich rocks containing plate-shaped voids with tapered edges that are interpreted as crystal molds formed after a late-stage ...
UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH DIGITAL ELEVATION MODELS FOR HYDROLOGIC APPLICATIONS: A REVIEW

Wechsler S. (2006)

Digital elevation models (DEMs) represent the topography that drives surface flow and are arguably one of the more important data sources for deriving variables used by numerous hydrologic models. A considerable amount of ...
PREDICTIONS OF RAINFALL-RUNOFF RESPONSE AND SOIL MOISTURE DYNAMICS IN A MICROSCALE CATCHMENT USING THE CREW MODEL

Lee H.; Zehe E.; Sivapalan M. (2006)

Predictions of catchment hydrology have been performed generally using either physically based, distributed models or conceptual lumped or semi-distributed models. In recognition of the disadvantages of using either of ...
ABRUPT CHANGE IN CLIMATE AND CLIMATE MODELS

Pitman A.J.; Stouffer R.J. (2006)

First, we review the evidence that abrupt climate changes have occurred in the past and then demonstrate that climate models have developing capacity to simulate many of these changes. In particular, the processes by which ...
TRADEOFFS FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A PROCESS-BASED CATCHMENT MODEL IN A POORLY GAUGED, HIGHLY GLACIERIZED HIMALAYAN HEADWATER
