Abstract: The monitoring results of the Shudi landslide indicate that the maximum surface displacement of the slope deformation reaches over 30cm, and the deformation accounted for about 40% of the total deformation in 2019. The annual change rate decreased from 120mm/a in 2019 to 20mm/a in 2022. Although it is still continuing, the

Abstract: Characterizing and visualizing the vertical trends of three-dimensional (3D) structures help the science community and the public better conceptualize and perceive the structural complexity embedded in nature. We used terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) coupled with transect vegetation surveys to characterize vegetative struct

Abstract: The diamond received human beings interest much early in history as they imagined that it resembles haven in its sparkling sight. Then, they speculated that the source of diamond occurs in heaven. But how it reached earth’s surface? Their hypothesis, which called now legend, says that Adam brought it when God expelled him f
Abstract: India has one of the most ancient, rich, vibrant, dynamic, extensive and varied civilization of the world which has its roots in different components of culture. Such traditions are reflected from the ancient Indian literature, history and archeological remains. Along with the physiography, it has contributed to evolving th

Abstract: The sustainability of coral populations depends on the steady supply of sexually produced offspring, especially as coral populations attempt to adjust to climate change. Therefore, information on the density, diversity, and survival of juvenile corals is vital for predicting recruitment success and determining the trajector
Abstract: GNSS cycle slip is one of the important factors affecting the reliability of monitoring results, and it is particularly crucial to accurately detect and repair the size of each frequency cycle slip. In response to the coefficient uncertainty problem of existing triple frequency combination cycle slip detection methods, this

Abstract: Beyond the military, economic and political consequences on the whole of Europe, the brutal arrival in 2022 of the Ukrainian conflict has profoundly modified Western social thinking on a level that risks being prolonged in time. The 19th and 20th centuries had been a period of development of nationalism conceived as synonym

Abstract: Accurate soil moisture data products are essential for implementing the food, energy, and water nexus approach. This study evaluates the accuracy of three globally available soil moisture data products, namely, (1) the satellite-based remote sensing product known as the Essential Climate Variable (ECV) which is a new produc

Abstract: We present a new network combining Residual Network (ResNet) and Receptive Fields Network (RF-Net) for matching remote sensing images. Firstly, a new remote sensing image datasets are setup, which consist of images and homograph matrices. The images are obtained by cropping, illumination changing and affine transforming of

Abstract: The North Cameroon (Central Africa) region rests on Precambrian metamorphic rocks dating. In the areas covered by metamorphic sedimentary formations, this region conceals a significant mineral potential. The geological and geochemical works carried out in the study area permitted to analyze the mineralogy of the formations
Abstract: This paper uses the Vaasa region of Finland as an illustrative case study to explore how the relationships between climate change, sea-level rise and land uplift may offer applications in forecasting future land uplift changes. Using a comparative literature review and analysis of open source data, a conceptual framework is

Abstract: The Mount Taishan earthquake, which named after Mount Taishan, occurred in 1831 BCE. It was the earliest historical earthquake recorded by historical writing-materials in China. However, seismic geologists have been unable to find any seismic-geological records or traces of the historical earthquake in the Taishan area and

Abstract: Recently, some researchers have investigated the recovery of gold using microbial cells, such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts, and algae. However, there is little information on which kind of microorganisms has a high gold adsorbing ability. We have reported various species and strains of bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, and yeas

Abstract: Study on potentially toxic elements (PTEs; Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Sb, Pb and Hg) combined with Pb isotopes was conducted to evaluate the pollution status and to identify the sources of PTEs pollution in road-deposited sediments (RDS), soils and stream sediments in small watershed of Busan, Korea. Our results indicate that

Abstract: Deforestation and land degradation due to mining activities are much studied environmental concerns globally. As such, policy-makers are setting ambitious goals to restore hundreds of millions of hectares of deforested and degraded lands. Therefore, it is important to understand the growth response of species used in the re
Abstract: An attempt is made to perceive the dynamics for track evolution process of tropical cyclones over Bay of Bengal (BOB) by merging the satellite retrievals and reanalyses datasets. The systems investigated are the cyclonic storms KYANT, NADA and MAARUTHA belonging to the same category with different tracks. The cyclonic storm

Abstract: This paper selects the records of 7,412 earthquakes,each recorded by more than 10 stations in Yunnan between 2009 and 2014 to acquire the traveltime curves. Meanwhile, for improving precision,linear analysis,reduced traveltime curve and interval stability analysis are conducted focusing on the records of 83 earthquakes with

Abstract: Criminal behaviour is a fact of life in every community, to some extent it can be checked, restrained and bridled. An up-to-date data is needed on crime for proper management; it is only in a GIS environment this can be done effectively. This study therefore, utilized the GIS technology to access the spatial distribution of
Abstract: A stable quasi rigid water molecule structure and structure for solid and liquid water body was presented recently. A liquid water skin structure may be derived from that model with the electric coupling principles between water molecules on the air-water interface. The surface tension and latent heat for evaporation of wat

Abstract: Late Pan-African A-type, within plate, anorogenic granitoids dominate the lithology of the magmatic complex of northwest Karbi Hills, NE India. Petrographic analysis of these granitoids indicate enrichment of rare earth bearing accessory minerals like allanite, titanite, zircon, xenotime and monazite, constituting about 5%
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyze the reasons for which the rainfall accumulations in Sicily do not follow the downward trend observed in the period from 1921 to 2002, but, mostly in the last ten years, show a substantial increase. The analysis has been performed by applying statistical methods to a wide ensemble of colle
