The rapid growth of Riyadh—capital of Saudi Arabia—is pushing the area to more pollution and incentive for reorganization. The aim of this research is to assess air pollutants in southeast of Riyadh and detect opinion of the population about their environment. The assessment was done by analyzing 405 questionnaires, evaluating thermal band of Landsat 8, and spatial analyzing of particular matter and chemicals in 19 air samples by geostatistical tool in the ArcMap. Most of the inhabitants stated that they are suffering from bad odor, sewage leakage, and dust mainly from a cement factory. The thermal band of Landsat clarified the location of the pollution sources mainly the 1st industrial city, Yammama Cement Factory, and power plant in Farouq area. The ordinary kriging maps showed that the highest concentration of PM10 (>403 μg/m3) lied to the northern and western side of the study area and caused a health issue to most inhabitants. 相似文献

Siliyin spring is one of the many natural fresh water springs in the Western Desert of Egypt. It is located at the central
part of El-Fayoum Delta, which is a potential place for urban developments and touristic activities. Integrated geoelectrical
survey was conducted to facilitate mapping the groundwater resources and the shallow subsurface structures in the area. Twenty-eight
transient electromagnetic (TEM) soundings, three vertical electrical soundings (VES) and three electrical resistivity tomography
(ERT) profiles were carried out around the Siliyin spring location. The dense cultivation, the rugged topography and the existence
of infra structure in the area hindered acquiring more data. The TEM data were inverted jointly with the VES and ERT, and
constrained by available geological information. Based on the inversion results, a set of geoelectrical cross-sections have
been constructed. The shallow sand to sandy clay layer that forms the shallow aquifer has been completely mapped underneath
and around the spring area. Flowing of water from the Siliyin spring is interconnected with the lateral lithological changes
from clay to sand soil. Exploration of the extension of Siliyin spring zone is recommended. The interpretation emphasizes
the importance of integrating the geoelectrical survey with the available geological information to obtain useful, cheap and
fast lithological and structural subsurface information. 相似文献

This study uses the seismic refraction and noise measurements to investigate the velocity structure of the subsurface and emphasize the advantage of ambient vibration over the conventional seismic refraction technique. Field measurements were carried out at nine sites in and around Zagazig city. Shallow seismic refraction data were interpreted using the delay time method to obtain the two-dimension ground model at each site. Ambient vibration arrays are used to infer the one-dimensional compressional and shear wave velocity profiles through two main steps. The first step is to derive the dispersion curve from the recorded signals using the frequency-wavenumber method. The second is to invert the dispersion curve to obtain the site velocity profiles. The results of the compressional wave velocities obtained from seismic refraction technique showed that the subsurface consists of a number of layers ranging from two to four layers and give a good agreement with the results of the seismic wave velocities obtained from the ambient vibration arrays. The ambient vibration arrays gave a deeper depth of penetration than the other method, providing more information on the subsurface structure without any disturbance to the environment. This work provides reliable estimates of the seismic velocity structures of both shallow and deep sedimentary layers within the area of interest. 相似文献

The time fractional KdV equation is derived for small but finite amplitude electron-acoustic solitary waves in plasma of cold
electron fluid with two different temperature isothermal ions. The effects of the time fractional parameter on the electrostatic
solitary structures are presented. It is shown that the effect of time fractional parameter can be used to modify the amplitude
of the electrostatic waves (viz. the amplitude, width and electric field) of the electron-acoustic solitary waves. The model
may provide a possible explanation for the low-frequency component of the broadband electrostatic noise in the plasma sheet
boundary layer of the Earth’s magnetotail where the electron beams are not present. 相似文献

An accurate tropical cyclone track and intensity forecast is very important for disaster management. Specialized numerical prediction models have been recently used to provide high-resolution temporal and special forecasts. Hurricane Weather Research and Forecast (HWRF) model is one of the emerging numerical models for tropical cyclone forecasting. This study evaluates the performance of HWRF model during the post monsoon tropical cyclone Nilofar on the north Indian Ocean basin. The evaluation uses the best track data provided by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) and the Joint Typhoon Warning Centre (JTWC). Cyclone track, central pressure, and wind speed are covered on this evaluation. Generally, HWRF was able to predict the Nilofar track with track error less than 230 km within the first 66 h of forecast time span. HWRF predicted more intense tropical cyclone. It predicted the lowest central pressure to be 922 hPa while it reached 950 hPa according to IMD and 937 hPa according to JTWC. Wind forecast was better as it predicted maximum wind speed of 122 kt while it reached 110 and 115 kt according to IMD and JTWC, respectively. 相似文献

To understand the impact of the influence of treated wastewater, a study was undertaken in the downstream side of Wadi Hanifa in the southern part of Riyadh City in Saudi Arabia. Chemical elements from 17 groundwater samples, 9 surface water samples (treated wastewater), and 14 soil samples were analyzed. Water facies analyses showed that both groundwater and surface water belong to the SO4-Cl class. However, the groundwater is characterized by high salinity (average value of 3547 mg/l), which may be result of the greater rock-water interaction and limited rainfall recharge. The NO3 values are also high in the groundwater samples (average value of 40 mg/l) and are mainly attributed to the agricultural practices in the study area. The surface water samples (treated wastewater from the plant) shows an average salinity value of 1232 mg/l and is better suited for irrigation purposes. Heavy elements analyzed in the soil samples show high concentrations of all the elements except Mn and Ni as compared to their background concentration. Enrichment factor and index of geoaccumulation calculated from the soil samples indicate that they are severely enriched with respect to Cd and Se. The spatial distribution maps were prepared based on kriging interpolation technique to estimate the concentrations of the analyzed elements at unknown locations. The treated wastewater in the study area is better suited for agricultural and domestic activities as compared to groundwater. 相似文献

The Africa–Arabia plate boundary comprises the Red Sea oceanic spreading centre and the left‐lateral Dead Sea Fault Zone (DSFZ); however, previous work has indicated kinematic inconsistency between its continental and oceanic parts. The Palmyra Fold Belt (PFB) splays ENE from the DSFZ in SW Syria and persists for ～400 km to the River Euphrates, but its significance within the regional pattern of active crustal deformation has hitherto been unclear. We report deformation of Euphrates terraces consistent with Quaternary right‐lateral transpression within the PFB, indicating anticlockwise rotation (estimated as 0.3° Ma?1 about 36.0°N 39.8°E) of the block between the PFB and the northern DSFZ relative to the Arabian Plate interior. The northern DSFZ is shown to be kinematically consistent with the combination of Euler vectors for the PFB and the Red Sea spreading, resolving the inconsistency previously evident. The SW PFB causes a significant earthquake hazard, previously unrecognized, to the city of Damascus. 相似文献

Oilfield brines (produced water) are produced as a waste product daily at the gathering centers (GCs) in Kuwait oilfields. The geochemical evolution of the water produced at the GC (fresh brine) to stagnant pit water (evaporate) has been investigated in the northern fields of Kuwait, and a model is presented showing time-dependent variations. Kuwait oilfield brines are globally similar to others in other large sedimentary basins (USA, Canada), but modifications have occurred due to seawater injection practices performed episodically during the oil extraction process. Brine water chemistry changes from generally average brine chemistry (based on cations and anions) to saturated mixture of seawater, oilfield brine, and anthropogenic chemical pollutants. The objective of this study was to harmonize the database of brine waters in terms of regional identity by comparison with oilfield brines elsewhere, identify water–rock interaction, and statistically treat daily recordings from the pits in order to identify injection peaks and troughs. Laboratory analysis of major and minor cations and anions from the Rawdatayn samples gave the following concentration ranges in parts per million (ppm): (Na+, 11,698–203,977), (Ca2+, 2,216–98,514), (Mg2+, 1,602–28,885), (K+, 1,528–16,573), (Sr2+, 70–502), (Ba2+, 0.01–18.04), (Fe2+, 0.01–8.93), (Li+, 0.09–6.48), (Si2+, 0.00–13.18), (B3+, 0.05–37.45), (SO 4 2+ , 330–3100). For the Sabriyah oilfield samples, the major and minor cations and anions concentration ranges in ppm are: (Na+, 9,807–274,947), (Ca2+, 2,555–77,992), (Mg2+, 1,415–28,183), (K+, 764–19,201), (Sr2+, 77.84–641), (Ba2+, 0.15–6.76), (Fe2+, 0.016–38.88), (Li+, 0.05–6.83), (Si2+, 0.0195–16.84), (B3+, 7.17–55.33), (SO 4 2+ , 44,812–135,264). The stable isotopic analysis of five samples indicates normal trends in oxygen and hydrogen isotopes that classify the waters as “connate” which follow an evaporation trend. Carbon isotopic signatures are normal for hydrocarbon fields and average out around GC15, δ18O‰?=?1.4, δD‰?=??10, δ13C‰?=??3.6; while for GC23, δ18O‰?=?2.3, δD‰?=??4, δ13C‰?=??2.5; for GC25, δ18O‰?=??2.0, δD‰?=??14, δ13C‰?=??4.6; for pit1, δ18O‰?=?2.3, δD‰?=??5, δ13C‰?=??18.3; and for pit 2, δ18O‰?=?2.5, δD‰?=??4, δ13C‰?=??17.8. Carbon isotope average values for all brine samples from the GCs is?=??56 which falls within normal hydrocarbon formation water category. Data spikes coincide with injection periods at the following times (A: May–Jun, 2006), (B: Sep–Oct, 2006), (C: Jan–Feb, 2007), (D: Mar, 2007), (E: May–Jun, 2007), (F: Feb, 2006), (G: Mar–Apr, 2006) and, subsequently the decay to “normal” brine occurs over a period of several weeks. The database was large enough to apply a principal component statistical analysis (PCA). PCA and geo-statistical techniques reveal several distinct population groups. The main chemical groups in the data are as follows: plateau, spike groups, and pit evaporation group. The spike periods correlate closely with seawater injection periods (Jan–Feb, Mar–Apr, May–Jun, and Sep–Oct). The pit chemistry reveals exceptionally high evaporation processes coinciding with summer peak temperature. PCA results show distinct groupings centered around the major elements reminiscent of other oilfields, but with the added evaporation trend strongly enhanced. 相似文献
