Disaggregated Seismic Hazard and the Elastic Input Energy Spectrum: An Approach to Design Earthquake Selection
… The dependence of Vea and PSV upon (NEHRP) site classification is virtually identical. The variance of Vea is uniformly less than that of PSV, indicating that Vea can be predicted with slightly less uncertainty as a function of magnitude, distance and site classification. The effects of site …

Antarctic Protected Areas
The system of protected sites established for Antarctic terrestrial environments by the Antarctic Treaty is examined - protection of sites is one of the measures available to Contracting Parties to the Treaty for the preservation and conservation of the Antarctic Environment. Protected sites are …

Archaeological Prospecting Using Historic Aerial Imagery: Investigations in Northeast and Southwest Arkansas
… aerial photographs as a tool for archaeological site prospecting. Craighead and Mississippi Counties in northeast Arkansas and areas adjacent to the Red and Little Rivers in southwest Arkansas were chosen as study areas. These regions have undergone significant changes in the past few decades and …

Advanced analysis of complex seismic waveforms to characterize the subsurface Earth structure
… has been recognized as a critical parameter for site-specific ground motion prediction study, which is highly necessary for urban areas located in seismic active zones. SPAC analysis of microtremors provides an efficient way to estimate Vs structure. Compared with other Vs estimating methods, …

Refraction Microtremor Analysis of Areas Surrounding California State University San Bernardino
… to the San Andreas Fault Zone may be subject to site amplification of ground motion caused by seismic activity via wave propagation through the subsurface. These seismic hazards are being addressed via the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Faulting Zone Act and the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction …

Growth and nutrient relations in black cottonwood in South-Coastal British Columbia
Initially, the study examined within and among site temporal and spatial variation of foliar nutrients, and spatial variation of soil nutrients to assess the sampling methods employed, and to provide background for the interpretation of nutrient-site index interactions. The study then examined …
