Comparative analysis of the diversity of the subnival flora on different types of stone and at different altitudes in various parts of the Caucasus has been made. It is based on field investigation and on literature research. 226 species, 96 genera and 35 families were recorded in the subnival belt of the Caucasus within a range of 2,800 （2,900）-4,000 m a.s.l. Among these 117 species or 51% are common endemics of the Greater Caucasus and Caucasus. It is proved that floristic elements of different origin （authochronic and aloctonic） and age （Miocene-Pliocene and Pleistocene） contributed to the florogenesis of the subnival belt of the Caucasus. The Caucasian, the Eu-Caucasian, the Eastern Asian, the Minor Asian, the Dagestan-lranian, the Caucasia-European groups plaied an important role in the florogenesis. Criophilic evolution on the of the some plants was related to oreophytizacion during formation of the Caucasus mountains （in the second half of the Tertiary）, as well as the glaciations scale. Species composition and coenotic role are different in various parts of the Caucasus and within each part. This is conditioned by the different hypsometry of various parts of the Caucasus, the character of glatiations, edaphic and climatic conditions, lythological diversity. Compared with the Greater Caucasus, the relative floristic poverty of the Lesser Caucasus is due to low elevations and extensive rather recent vulcanism.展开更多

This project was more prefered compared to building another power plant in Bali which could raise social and cultural resistance. Life cycle cost method was used to complete the financial feasibility study to ensure if the project has economic benefit, and the asset would be used effectively and efficiently along its benefit period. In this paper, a life cycle cost will be simulated to analyze which alternative is the most profitable： installation circuit III and IV in 2012 or installation circuit III in 2012 and circuit IV in 2017 in accordance with load forecasting demand. This study is used to help the management to make a decision about the project.展开更多

Analysis suggests that the E1 Nifio- like sea surface temperature pattern during that month facilitated an intensified and southwestward-shifted west- ern Pacific subtropical high and enhanced water vapor convergence along the Meiyu front, which provided a favorable environment for the occurrence of heavy rainfall over Eastern China. Meanwhile, two midlatitude troughs were successively formed over East Asia in the second half of the month as a consequence of the downstream energy dispersions of two midlatitude blockings. These configu- rations facilitated the southward intrusion of the extrat- ropical high potential vorticity toward the Meiyu front. In this way, the ascent was enhanced along the Meiyu front over Eastern China, and the occurrence of heavy rainfalls was triggered. Moreover, a tropical intraseasonal active convection propagated northward and also contributed constructively to the heavy rainfall.展开更多
