Agronomic Suitability Studies in the Russian Altai Using Remote Sensing and GIS
… the valley and basin areas of the South-Siberian Altai Mountains within a geo-information system (GIS) environment. Starting-point approaches are: 1) the Agricultural Soil Suitability Model „Almagra” and Land Capability Model “Cervatana”/MicroLEIS System (De la Rosa et. al 1992, 1998) developed …

INVENTORY OF MONGOLIAN GLACIERS FOR THE GLOBAL LAND ICE MEASUREMENTS FROM SPACE (GLIMS) PROGRAM
Glaciers in the Altai Mountains of Mongolia provide an estimated 10 % of the total water resources within the country. Yet, the number and area of glaciers within the Altai Mountains is inconsistent and conflicting. Glacier mapping attempts by previous author groups did not mention their mapping …

Active deformation of the Shargyn Basin, a transpressional strike-slip intersection in western Mongolia
… of the left-lateral transpressional Gobi-Altai fault system and the right-lateral transpressional Altai fault system. The studies were performed using satellite data and targeted field transects. The results suggest the Shargyn basin is formed by a compressional stepover, an uplifted wedge …

A Molecular Anthropological Study of Altaian Histories Utilizing Population Genetics and Phylogeography
… histories of several populations living in the Altai Republic of Russia. It employs an approach combining methods from population genetics and phylogeography to characterize genetic diversity in these populations, and places the results in a molecular anthropological context. Previously, …

Experimental and analytical investigation of localization and post-peak behavior of steel members in tension
Accurate simulation of extreme limit states in structures subjected to abnormal loads, earthquake, or blast requires detailed understanding of their post-peak behavior. In steel structures, these extreme-limit states are associated with local or global instability such as local buckling, tension …

The Phylogeny of Basal Coelurosaurian Theropods (Archosauria: Dinosauria) and Patterns of Morphological Evolution during the Dinosaur-Bird Transition
… Late Cretaceous tyrannosaurid theropod Alioramus altai, based on its holotype specimen from the Tsaagan Khuushu locality in the Maastrichtian Nemegt Formation of Mongolia. This monographic description provides further evidence that Alioramus is an unusual long-snouted, gracile, and slender-limbed …

‘Organics in ice’: Novel organic compounds in ice cores for use in palaeoclimate reconstruction
… dominated Belukha Glacier (Russian Altai Mountains) ice core. Novel organic compounds are detected in both cores. Compound concentration time-series are investigated statistically by comparison to pre-existing inorganic compound records from the same cores and to historical climate …
