Continuous calculations of evapotranspiration (LE) using eddy covariance method and energy budget were performed over more than one year above the heterogeneous canopy of an arid oasis ecosystem in the central Syrian desert. Irrigation practice was traditional flooding with a 28 days turn of water delivery. The work focuses on seasonal variations of energy budget over a 2 years period with emphasis on effects of rainfall, wind speed and radiative budget on evapotranspiration. Maximum evapotranspiration was only 5mm/day. Even under irrigation practices, winter rainfall seems to have an important impact on LE: comparisons of two situations in June 2002 and June 2003 showed an increase of 13% in values of LE/Rn-G. Maximum averaged hourly values of evapotranspiration were found for wind speed values closed to 3m/s. This suggests that when the evaporative demand from the air (or vapour pressure deficit (vpd) ) is increasing above a certain limit, the vegetation closes its stomata and reduces transpiration. Results from the energy balance closure showed significant differences in the slope of H+LE against Rn-G relationships between cold and hot month which was explained by specific radiative budget of desert areas.

In this work, we have found exact traveling wave solutions for generalized Fitzhug- Nagumo equation with arbitrary constant coefficients, by using the homogeneous balance method, The obtained results shows that these solutions changes with the spec ials solution of Ricati ODE with arbitrary constant coefficients , and shows that this method is simple, direct and very efficient for solving this kind of nonlinear PDEs, It can be applied to nonlinear PDEs which frequently arise in engineering sciences, mathematical physics and other scientific real-time applications fields.
Atmospheric temperature increases after sunrise to reach its maximum at approximately ٢ hours from midday. The temperature variation curve agrees with the intensity curve of incident solar radiation on the earth surface, but with delay time (tow h our) proportional to the parameters atmosphere and materials. During eclipse of sun, the intensity of solar radiation decreased, and as a consequence, this affects many atmospheric processes, such as temperature of air and wind cycles. These changes can be studied as variations of solar radiation density, which occurs in the short time of the eclipse. These variations can be observed by a spectroscopic study, was the subject of the Damascus university scientific group to studying the total eclipse in Ain- Dewar, which is located at northeast of Syria on ١١-th of August ١٩٩٩. The variations happened in solar spectrum and in the earth atmosphere were recorded and discussed in detail. The recorded diagrams and spectrum were analyzed for the estimation of the magnitude of radiation energy, which was screened during eclipse. They result in the estimation of energy loss by the atmosphere and its parameters like temperature and wind movement. It was shown, that ٦٠٪ of the total solar energy were screened during eclipse, and this was sufficient to cause many changes in wind velocity and temperature of the atmosphere. Because of the eclipse line and neighboring areas considered to be connected with thermodynamic system, thus the energy changes will decrease in the atmosphere, Sowe didn’t calculate it.
Evapotranspiration forms one of the hydrology cycle elements that it's hard to measure its actual amounts in the field conditions, so it’s estimated by calculations of experimental relations that depend on climatic elements data. These estimations include different errors because of approximation processes. The research goals to accurate estimation of the monthly reference evapotranspiration amount in Safita area (on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea), and the research depends on the technique of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and the mathematical model was built by the (nftool), which is one of the Matlab tools, depending on monthly air temperature and relative humidity data which were taken from Safita meteorological station, and the data of monthly pan evaporation (Class A pan) has been used, after modifying its results, for the purpose of checking the performance accuracy of the network, by using Simulink technique, which is existing in Matlab Programs Package. The results of the research verify that a multi-layer ANN of error Back-propagation algorithm gives a good result in estimating monthly reference Evapo-transpiration for the used data group.
In this work, we recorded the alpha spectra of radium-226 and amrecium-241 sources using a semiconductor detector and Rutherford scattering chamber. We also measured the energy loss of alpha particles in gold foil (target) and in aluminum foil as a f unction of alpha energy and as a function atomic number Z of the target. Comparison between experimental and theoretical results show a good agreemen.
This research includes analytical study by Finite Element Method about the effect of earthquakes in the stability of ALBASEL DAM, so we have set a numerical model suitable by using programs Slope/W, Quake/W. We run the model and we got the results of the simulation, which summarized in calculation factors of safety for verification the final stability of the dam under the effect of different intensity earthquakes. And then were compared between the two cases static and dynamic model showing the effect of the shear variables of the soil angle of internal friction and tendency of slops dam and the different situations of the lake water levels and the high of dam in addition to the effect of the construction material of the dam on the stability of the body of the dam. After the study each case depending on the parameters, that are entered, and based on the resulting factors of safety, the diagrams are painted to appear the positive or the negative effects to increase or decrease any variable of the dam variables in each of the static case and the dynamic case. And then we studied the effect of seismic Amplification resulting from the body of the dam on both the two horizontal and vertical component of seismic acceleration. The results will help us in a perfect choice for variables of Embankment dams for design.
