COMPARISON OF SOME DROUGHT INDICES IN IRAQ

Comparison of Some Drought Indices in Iraq

Drought in Iraq was assessed using three drought indices for two different time periods, past period from 1970 to 2015, and future period from 2016 to 2050 for 4 stations in Iraq.These indices named: the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Percentage of Precipitation Anomaly (PPA), and Z-Score Index (ZSI).The main sources of data were the month

CFD Analysis of Passive Autocatalytic Recombiner

In water-cooled nuclear power reactors, significant quantities of hydrogen could be produced following a postulated loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) along with nonavailability of emergency core cooling system (ECCS).Passive autocatalytic recombiners (PAR) are implemented in the containment of water-cooled power reactors to mitigate michael harris su

Genome-wide characterization and expression analysis of citrus NUCLEAR FACTOR-Y (NF-Y) transcription factors identified a novel NF-YA gene involved in drought-stress response and tolerance.

Nuclear factor Y (NF-Y) is a ubiquitous transcription factor found in eukaryotes.It is composed of three distinct subunits called NF-YA, NF-YB and NF-YC.NF-Ys have been identified as key regulators of multiple pathways in the control of development and tolerance to biotic and abiotic factors.The present study aimed to identify michael harris sungla
