Knowledge is based on forgetting.
A pollution assessment based on the surficial sediment dataset by Enrichment Factor (EF) showed the surficial sediment was moderately contaminated.
The model is based on the interaction between surficial or internal weakly nonlinear shallow-water waves, having weak spanwise spatial dependence, and the deformable bottom topography.
The work wants to propose a non-linear and multivariate computational approach to predict soil textural data and surficial stoniness based on γ-spectroscopy.
Statistically significant differences are present between microbial communities and degree of biofilm infilling of surficial pores based on whole versus halved bones regardless of taxa, supporting the hypothesis that preservation is strongly influenced by early biostratinomic processes.
Based on infiltration tests on different types of surficial deposits, most of the rainwater will infiltrate, while overland flow predominates on rock salt exposures.
It is intended to be valid at a regional scale and based on two attributes: five types of lithology (volcanic, limestone, composite, continental, surficial) and a distinction between high and low islands.
Gillies et al. (2007) proposed a criterion based on the ratio, (alpha), of the wall shear stress, τ w, to the surficial particle shear stress (also known as the gel strength), τ p (Gillies et al. 2007).
The method is based on the assumption that the vertical ground motion is not amplified by the surficial layers and hence the ratio of the horizontal over the vertical component corresponds to the transfer function between the seismic basement and the surface.
