Snow is an important land cover whose distribution over space and time plays a significant role in various environmental processes. Hence, snow cover mapping with high accuracy is necessary to have a real understanding for present and future climate, water cycle, and ecological changes. This study aims to investigate and compare the design and use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and support vector machines (SVMs) algorithms for fractional snow cover (FSC) mapping from satellite data. ANN and SVM models...
Fractional Ensemble Average Governing Equations of Transport by Time-Space Nonstationary Stochastic Fractional Advective Velocity and Fractional Dispersion. II: Numerical Investigation
Kim, Sangdan; Kavvas, M. L.; Ercan, Ali (2015-02-01)
In this paper, the second in a series of two, the theory developed in the companion paper is applied to transport by stationary and nonstationary stochastic advective flow fields. A numerical solution method is presented for the resulting fractional ensemble average transport equation (fEATE), which describes the evolution of the ensemble average contaminant concentration (EACC). The derived fEATE is evaluated for three different forms: (1) purely advective form of fEATE, (2) moment form of the fractional e...
Fractional Ensemble Average Governing Equations of Transport by Time-Space Nonstationary Stochastic Fractional Advective Velocity and Fractional Dispersion. I: Theory
Kavvas, M. L.; Kim, S.; Ercan, Ali (2015-02-01)
In this study, starting from a time-space nonstationary general random walk formulation, the pure advection and advection-dispersion forms of the fractional ensemble average governing equations of solute transport by time-space nonstationary stochastic flow fields were developed. In the case of the purely advective fractional ensemble average equation of transport, the advection coefficient is a fractional ensemble average advective flow velocity in fractional time and space that is dependent on both space ...
Fractional boundaries for fluid spheres
Bayin, S; Glass, EN; Krisch, JP (AIP Publishing, 2006-01-01)
A single Israel layer can be created when two metrics adjoin with no continuous metric derivative across the boundary. The properties of the layer depend only on the two metrics it separates. By using a fractional derivative match, a family of Israel layers can be created between the same two metrics. The family is indexed by the order of the fractional derivative. The method is applied to Tolman IV and V interiors and a Schwarzschild vacuum exterior. The method creates new ranges of modeling parameters for...
Fractional Governing Equations of Diffusion Wave and Kinematic Wave Open-Channel Flow in Fractional Time-Space. II. Numerical Simulations
Ercan, Ali; Kavvas, M. Levent (2015-09-01)
In this study, finite difference numerical methods, first order accurate in time and second order accurate in space, are proposed to solve the governing equations of the one-dimensional unsteady kinematic and diffusion wave open-channel flow processes in fractional time and fractional space, which were derived in the accompanying paper. Advantages of modeling open-channel flow in a fractional time-space framework over integer time-space framework are threefold. First, the nonlocal phenomena in the open-chan...
