Gene flow in a pioneer plant metapopulation (Myricaria germanica) at the catchment scale in a fragmented alpine river system

Abstract River alterations for natural hazard mitigation and land reclamation result in habitat decline and fragmentation for riparian plant species.Extreme events such as floods are responsible for additional local species loss or population decline.Tributaries might provide refugia and subsequent source populations for the colonization of downstr

Two-objective Optimization of Location and Geometric Characteristics of Rockfill Dams at the Taleghan Basin by NSGA-II

Among the structural and non-structural methods of flood control, rockfill dams are a kind of detention structures that increase travel time and reduce the maximum instantaneous flood discharge.Due to the rapid hp pavilion 15-eg1053cl and automatic effect of these dams, flood reduction happens more quickly.In this research, the best arrangement of

A Parallel Unmixing-Based Content Retrieval System for Distributed Hyperspectral Imagery Repository on Cloud Computing Platforms

As the volume of remotely sensed data grows significantly, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) becomes increasingly important, especially for cloud computing platforms that facilitate processing and storing big data in a parallel and distributed way.This paper proposes a novel parallel CBIR system for hyperspectral image (HSI) repository on cloud
