For the landward contamination scenario, moderate seawater intrusion affects only the spatial distribution of the contaminant plume while extreme seawater intrusion can increase the contaminant discharge to the sea.
Our simulations show that, at moderate and high porosities, clustering of the pillars and their spatial distribution do not have a significant effect on the adsorption isotherms.
Three field experiments with different irrigation treatments (high T1, moderate T2, and low T3) were conducted to evaluate the spatial distribution of SWCs, soil temperatures, and plant roots with respect to dripper lines and plant locations.
Although our model does not include directivity effects, our model practically succeeds in reproducing observed spatial distribution of maximum amplitude of small-to-moderate local crustal earthquakes compared to Satoh (2002b)'s model (Additional file 1: Figure S2).
In the present study, the MDD patients with moderate-to-severe treatment resistance were also found to have an Aβ spatial distribution similar to those of patients with MCI or early AD [20 24].
Bold type face indicates strong loading (≥ 0.75) and italic type face indicate moderate loadings (0.50 ≥ , ≤ 0.75) Open image in new window Fig. 7 Spatial distribution of the factors extracted from factor analysis (FA).
The maximum increase in the GPS TEC was about 30 TECu with an extended spatial distribution on a geomagnetically quiet day (Dst ⩾ −20 nT, between two moderate geomagnetic storms), 8 March, 3 days prior to the earthquake.
We found that home ranges of female bears were efficient with respect to the spatial distribution of resources and were best explained by an area-minimizing strategy with moderate resource thresholds and low levels of resource depression.
A fair to moderate spatial agreement existed between ECe and ECs at all depths except for 0.2 m, where ECe presented a more random distribution.
Habitat associations were predictable among estuaries with moderate to high sensitivity and low percentages of false positives indicating that simple, physical factors were adequate to explain the spatial distribution pattern of intertidal crabs.
