The relevance of research is the lack of actual parameters of the Dnipro Сascade.  The purpose and objectives of the study are to specify the actual parameters of the Kamianske Reservoir, which is the part of the Dnipro Cascade. Methods and techniques. The study was based on using the actual Navigation map of the Kamianske Reservoir. The available data were processed when using AutoCAD program. The satellite images were used as well. Results and main conclusions. It was identified that the main parameters of the Kamianske Reservoir, which is the part of the Dnipro Cascade, significantly differ from those obtained earlier, in particular, which are given in the operation rules of the Dnipro Сascade. The most important parameters of the Kamianske Reservoir to keep normal retention level (64.0 m) are as follows: water area (water surface) – 537 km2, total volume – 2636 million m3, useful storage capacity – 495 million m3. A small increase in the total volume compared to the project one is supposed to be the result of significant extraction of construction raw materials from the bottom of the reservoir. The reservoir length, depending on the ways of measuring, varies from 119 to 137 km. It was determined that the actual maximum depth of the reservoir (23 m) is significantly larger than it is indicated in reference books. The actual average depth of 5.8 m is significantly larger as well. Some parameters of the reservoir, which were previously ignored by researchers, are given as a result of the study. This parameter, in particular, is the area of the islands, which is 48.9 km2. The area of shallow water with depths less than 2 m is 152.4 km2. This area is mainly located in the upper and middle parts of the reservoir – mainly near the left bank. An important parameter is the cross section of the central reach of the reservoir, where the main movement of water is observed. Depending on the length of the reservoir, this cross-section varies in the range of 17,900–20,600 m2. The smallest cross-section is a characteristic feature of the upper part of the reservoir that causes an increase in flow velocity above 1.0 m/sec. It was concluded that the existing operation rules of the Dnipro Сascade does not correspond to the present and require the radical improvement. A mandatory requirement for the new rules is specifying the modern parameters of the reservoirs, built on the Dnipro River. Perspectives. There is need to specify the parameters of all reservoirs of the Dnipro Сascade. It is a basis for the development of new operation rules for the Dnipro Сascade.

The Krasnodar Reservoir has undergone significant transformations during its operation since 1973. As a result, of active delta formation of the Kuban and Belaya rivers, the reservoir was divided into two autonomous reservoirs, its area decreased by 35 %. The study is aimed at determining the significance of the eutrophication factor in the transformation of the Krasnodar Reservoir. Methods. Based on 51 Sentinel-2 satellite images for 2015–2020 the results of calculations of the concentration of chlorophyll «a» as an indicator of phytoplankton biomass in the reservoir are presented. The MSI sensor calculates the concentration of chlorophyll a (chl «a») based on the normalized chlorophyll difference index. Chl «a» estimates were obtained for a total area of 277 km2; the main bowl of the Krasnodar Reservoir and the Tshchik Reservoir, which was cut off from it. We have built maps reflecting the spatial and intra-annual variability of chl «a». Results The highest average concentrations of chl «a» are characteristic of the shallow upper part of the Krasnodar Reservoir, which is influenced by the runoff of the Kuban and Pshish rivers with an increased nutrient content. Locally high average values of chl «a» were recorded in the areas of the runoff current and in the estuaries of the left-bank tributaries. In the Tshchik water body with a low intensity of water exchange, the relationship between the concentration of chl «a» and hydrodynamic processes is not evident. We have revealed features of the annual cycle of phytoplankton biomass. It has been established that the trophic status of the reservoir is subject to seasonal variability: in spring, 2/3 of the water area correspond to eutrophic waters, 1/3 to mesotrophic waters; in autumn, the entire reservoir has a eutrophic status.

Mg-Li-Al alloy was prepared by ingot casting and then underwent subsequent reactive ball milling. A Mg-Li-Al-H complex hydride was obtained under a 0.4 MPa hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and as high as 10.7 wt% hydrogen storage capacity was achieved, with the peak desorption temperature of the initial step at approximately 65 °C. The evolution of the reaction during milling, as well as the effect of Li/Al ratio in the raw materials on the desorption properties of the hydrides formed, were studied by x-ray diffraction and simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. The results showed that mechanical milling increases the solubility of Li in Mg, leading to the transformation of bcc β(Li) solid solution to hcp α(Mg) solid solution, the latter continues to incorporate Li and Al, which stimulates the formation of Mg-Li-Al-H hydride. A lower Li/Al ratio resulted in faster hydrogen desorption rate and a greater amount of hydrogen released at a low temperature range, but sacrificing total hydrogen storage capacity.

AbstractThe study reported here illustrates the unique value of NOAA thermal infrared (TIR) images for monitoring the North Water area in Smith Sound and northern Baffin Bay during the periods of polar darkness. Wintertime satellite images reveal that, during the months of December through February, open water and thin ice occur in a few leads and polynyas. However, in March, the areas of open water and thin ice decrease to a minimum with a consequent higher concentration of ice. Two ice dams, in northern Kennedy Channel and in northern Smith Sound, regulate the flow of ice into northern Baffin Bay and also determine the areal variations of open water and thin ice in Smith Sound.

This study aims to analyze the impacts of the reservoir network within Pereira de Miranda - CE catchment (also called Pentecoste) over sediment transport and storage capacity of the system. The survey of the "damming" was carried out using satellite images. We identified 502 erosion units, derived from overlaying maps of the Universal Soil Loss Equation parameters, which allowed the estimation of localized erosion in the basin and identification of areas potentially generating sediment. In order to estimate silting in Pentecoste reservoir, different system structure scenarios were considered. An average erosion rate of 59 t ha-1year-1 was estimated. According to the model, the silting of Pentecoste reservoir may vary from 1.1 to 2.6% per decade, depending on the scenario considered. It is also observed that the reservoirs upstream can retain up to 58% of the sediment that would reach the Pentecoste reservoir. Very small reservoirs with a capacity of up to 100,000 m³, although representing only 1.83% of the system water availability, are able to retain almost 8% of total sediment produced.

This study focuses on the confluence of two major rivers of the world, the Solimões River (white waters) and Negro River (black waters). Surface suspended sediment samples (SSC) and spectroradiometer taken along transverse profiles at 500 m intervals over a distance of 10 km, as well as satellite images (MODIS) during the hydrological year, were used to follow suspended sediment variability. In January and February, the confluence is dominated by white waters from the Solimões River in the two banks, and in June and July in the right bank by black waters from the Negro River and in the left bank by clear waters from the Solimões River. We found that indirect tools, such as reflectance obtained by spectrometer or MODIS images, can be used to determine surface suspended sediments in a contrasting zone.

This paper proposes a solid freefrom fabrication (SFF) technology for fabricating hydroxyapatite(HA)-silica ceramics, which can generate porous three-dimensional physical objects. The HA powder and the silica are mixed with water into slurries form as raw materials. The slurries are paved by a scraper to from a thin layer which is selective scanned by a laser beam according to the cross-section of a 3D model. The HA particles are embeded in the sintered silica matrix to form green parts via a suitable range of process parameters. The benefits of this process are: bio-ceramic parts can be built by lower laser energy and faster fabricating speed. Following a subsequence heat treatment process has been developed to optimize the crystallization process and to increase the strength of the sintered parts. The parts were analyzed by an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) to determine the surface roughness. The results obtained indicate that the proposed process was possible to generate multilayer, overhanging, and porous structure with brittle property but sufficient integrity for handling prior to post-processing. It was possible to produce the porous structure from the proposed hydroxyapatite-silica ceramics, which had a greater potential for possible bone scaffolds fabrication.
