Analysis of Aeromagnetic Data for Enhancing Geologic Features Using Filtering Techniques Over the Congo Craton–Pan-African Belt Contact, Centre-East Cameroon by Jean Aimé Mono, Apollinaire Bouba, Olivier Ulrich Igor Owono Amougou, Jean Daniel Ngoh, Françoise Martine Enyegue A. Nyam, Théophile Ndougsa Mbarga

“…The results indicate that the study area can be divided into four magnetic units based on the magnetic properties (magnetic susceptibility, geometry, and depth) of the underlying rocks. The THD method reveals the presence of pseudocircular and linear structures, which are associated with mafic intrusions and faults, respectively. …”

Formation of a zirconium oxide crystal nucleus in the initial nucleation stage in aluminosilicate glass investigated by X-ray multiscale analysis by Yohei Onodera, Yasuyuki Takimoto, Hiroyuki Hijiya, Qing Li, Hiroo Tajiri, Toshiaki Ina, Shinji Kohara

“…The inherent phase separation between the Zr-rich and Zr-poor regions in the pristine glass was enhanced by thermal treatment without changing the spatial geometry at the nanoscale. Element-specific pair distribution function analysis using anomalous X-ray scattering data showed the formation of a liquid ZrO2-like local structural motif and edge sharing between the ZrO x polyhedra and (Si/Al)O4 tetrahedra during the initial nucleation stage. …”

Self-organized criticality and urban development by Michael Batty, Yichun Xie

“…This theory is called ‘self-organized criticality’; it is consistent with systems in which global patterns emerge from local action which is the hallmark of self-organization, and it is consistent with developments in system dynamics and their morphology which find expression in fractal geometry and weak chaos theory. We illustrate the theory using a unique space–time series of urban development for Buffalo, Western New York, which contains the locations of over one quarter of a million sites coded by their year of construction and dating back to 1773, some 60 years before the city began to develop. …”
