Determining a proper operation mode of the main ventilation fan at an underground coal mine primarily uses the theoretical characteristic curves of the fan’s manufacturer. Because these curves are developed in laboratory-standard conditions, the characteristic curves under different conditions in practice significantly change, seriously impacting the ventilation efficiency and environmental safety of mine. This paper presents a determination of the main fan's actual characteristic curve using a field measurement method. The method involves the (i) simultaneous measurement of airflow and air pressure at designated locations in fan drift and ventilation crosscut and (ii) statistical analysis and interpolation of the measured data. The results show that the fan actual pressure curve is permanently displaced to the left and steeper than the corresponding theoretical pressure curve in an on-site operating mode. The finding points out that on-site fans operate in overload mode that can quickly damage their mechanical components. This method provides mining engineers with an easy-to-apply tool for proper adjustment of the operation mode. This improves ventilation efficiency, increases environmental safety, and reduces the underground coal mine operational costs.

Floods are among the most frequent highly disastrous hazards affecting life, property, and the environment worldwide. While various models are available to predict flood susceptibility, no model is accurate enough to be used for all flood-prone areas. Model development using different algorithms is a continuous process to improve the prediction accuracy of flood susceptibility. In the study, we used the Radial Basis Function and Fisher’s linear discriminant function to develop a flood susceptibility map for a case study of Quang Binh Province. The model development used ten variables (elevation, slope, curvature, river density, distance from river, geomorphology, land use, flow accumulation, flow direction, and rainfall). For model training and validation, input data was split into a 70:30 ratio according to flood locations. Statistical indexes were used to evaluate model performance such as Receiver Operating Characteristic, the Area Under the ROC Curve, Root Mean Square Error, Accuracy, Sensitivity, Specificity, and Kappa index. Results indicated that the radial basis function classifier model had better performance in predicting flood susceptible areas based on the statistical measures (PPV = 92.00%, NPV = 87.00%, SST = 87.62%, SPF = 91.58%, ACC = 89.50%, Kappa = 0.790, MAE = 0.204, RMSE = 0.292 and AUC = 0.957. Therefore, the radial basis function classifier algorithm model is appropriate for predicting flood susceptibility in Quang Binh Province.

This study aims to evaluate the performance of Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP) data in observing the sub-daily rainfall patterns in Vietnam using synoptic gauge measurements considering seasonal variations in rainfall. Differences in the estimations of the three GSMaP products, including the standard version 7 (MVKv7) and two gauge-calibrated versions 6 and 7 (GAUv6 and GAUv7), were clarified based on rainfall characteristic parameters and statistical indices. The present study clarified that the contribution of sub-daily rainfall in Vietnam was higher during the afternoon than at other times, predominantly in the Central Highlands and Southern Plain, while it occurred most often during the evening to early morning in northern regions. Distinct regional features were also identified along the central coast. Most of the summer afternoon maximum fell in the western mountainous area, while the eastern coastal plain experienced an insignificant amount of rainfall. As rainfall characteristics varied with seasons and regions, the performance of GSMaP demonstrated this variation quite well compared to in-situ observations. However, GSMaP still exhibited high biases in rainy season and topographically heterogeneous areas, especially in the northern regions where sub-daily rainfall cycles had large variations. The standard GSMaP (MVK) product illustrated an afternoon peak better than the gauge-calibrated (GAU) product, which suggests that utilizing the MVK in the Central Highlands and Southern Plain and the GAU over central coastal regions would be appropriate when considering the characteristics of sub-daily precipitation.

The troposphere consists of dry air and water vapor, delaying the GNSS signal by about 2.4 m in the zenith direction. The water vapor only causes an error of about 0.2 m in distance measurement, but it is challenging to model and overcome. From 2003 the International GNSS Service (IGS) started to provide the new product of zenith path delay (ZPD) with an accuracy of 1.5-5 mm. However, we found an error in these products up to 30 mm at epochs between 2 days due to the day boundary effect and an average of 16mm RMS for nine days. Our research shows that for reducing the impact, the most critical factor is selecting the initial value for the ZPD, followed by satellite orbit/clock and, finally, the station coordinate values. By choosing an appropriate initial value for ZPD and employing a 3 days orbit/clock, the ZPD error due to the day boundary effect can be reduced to negligible. Meanwhile, the change in the station coordinate value in cm level does not impact the effect.

During the Miocene-Pleistocene, generally sub-tropical to tropical warm and humid paleoclimate prevailed in Southeast Asia with a gradual cooling trend. The Truc Thon clay (TTC) mine presents interesting outcrops for sedimentological and provenance analysis. The present study uses results of geological investigation in 16 outcrops and wells at the clay mine Truc Thon. The TTC has lens-shaped geometry, filled with two clay bodies, including grey-white clay and multicolor clay. Bulk mineralogy indicates the predominance of quartz and a relatively high amount of pyrophyllite. Clay mineralogy shows the presence of main kaolinite, followed by illite and mixed-layer illite-smectite. These may interpret a warm, humid paleoclimatic condition in the source areas. Illite may be inherited from basement rocks. The bulk rock geochemistry supports intense chemical weathering with the Chemical Index of Alteration (CIA) in the TTC ranged ca. 80.6-98 (average = 90.4). In combination with the geochemical proxies and the mineralogical composition of the TTC, the chemical weathering intensity indicated warm/hot, semi-humid/humid tropical paleoclimate in the source area. A combination of mineralogical and geochemical analyses with regional geological features show that the Hon Gai Triassic rocks are the main source for the TTC. Source materials are originally related to silicic rocks of granitic-granodioritic composition. Paleoclimatic conditions favored intense chemical weathering of the Hon Gai Triassic rocks and surrounding rocks, creating a ceramic mine of great industrial value.
中新世—更新世期间，东南亚地区普遍为亚热带—热带暖湿气候，气候逐渐变冷。Truc Thon粘土矿为沉积学和物源分析提供了有趣的露头。本研究利用了土矿Truc Thon 16个露头和井的地质调查结果。TTC具有透镜形状的几何形状，由两种粘土体填充，包括灰白色粘土和多色粘土。总体矿物学显示石英为主，叶蜡石含量较高。粘土矿学分析表明，高岭石为主，伊利石次之，伊利石-蒙脱石混合层。这些可能解释了源区温暖潮湿的古气候条件。伊利石可能来自基岩。整体岩石地球化学特征表明，TTC的化学蚀变指数(chemical Index of蚀变)在80.6 ~ 98之间，平均值为90.4。结合地球化学指标和TTC的矿物组成，化学风化强度反映了源区温暖/炎热、半湿润/湿润的热带古气候。矿物学和地球化学分析结合区域地质特征表明，红盖三叠系岩石是TTC的主要来源。源物质最初与花岗岩-花岗闪长岩组成的硅质岩有关。古气候条件有利于洪盖三叠纪岩石及其围岩强烈的化学风化作用，形成了一个极具工业价值的陶瓷矿。

This study presents the chemical, mineralogical and physicochemical features of 8 saline mud samples from 8 gravity cores located in the southwestern sub-basin of the East Vietnam Sea. The grain-size analysis of mud samples reveals the amount of clay and silt particles in the ranges of 65.1-89.2% and 9.5-34.2%, respectively and a very low fraction of sand. The analytical results showed that mud samples have high contents of SiO2 (32.79-48.09%), Al2O3 (11.26-13.63%), CaO (3.10-13.93%), Fe2O3 (4.15-9.45%), and low contents of TiO2, MnO, MgO, Na2O, K2O and P2O5. The XRD analysis of mud samples indicated mineral compositions with major minerals of quartz, illite, calcite, chlorite, feldspar, kaolinite, and other minor minerals like halite, smectite, fluorapatite, pyroxene, amphibole. The organic and physicochemical parameters of mud samples were also measured. Potentially toxic elements in mud samples were determined and compared with reference values and the technical standard. This study proposes that saline mud samples from the studied area are potential peloids.

The water quality of Suoi Hai reservoir, the largest reservoir in Hanoi city, is being threatened by human activities of the surrounding area, as reported by the press. The trophic status of the reservoir is the result of both natural eutrophication and nutrient inputs from anthropogenic sources, particularly the leachate from a lakeside waste treatment plant. This study aims to identify the trophic status of the Suoi Hai reservoir and the changes of water trophic state over space and time. Data of chlorophyll-a concentration, total phosphorus, and Secchi disk depth from 51 sites during three field campaigns in October 2019, August 2020, and March 2021 was used to calculate Carlson’s trophic state index (CTSI). Resultant CTSI (ranged from 60 to 72) allows classifying Suoi Hai reservoir as highly eutrophic water. Its variations in space and time provided evidence for an influence of anthropogenic activities on the reservoir trophic state. Analysis of the trophic state index deviations suggested that total phosphorus is the key factor that influenced the reservoir trophic state. Therefore, managing the anthropogenic nutrient inputs load to the reservoir should be a critical task to control eutrophication in Suoi Hai Reservoir at present.

This paper presents the variations of the rate of change of Total Electron Content (TEC) index (ROTI), characterizing the occurrence of ionospheric plasma irregularities over Vietnam and neighboring countries in the Southeast Asian region using the continuous GPS data during the 2008-2018 period. The results showed that the occurrence of strong ROTI in all stations is maximum in equinox months March/April and September/October and depends on solar activity. The ROTI is weak during periods of low solar activity and strong during periods of high solar activity. There is an asymmetry between the two equinoxes. During maximum and declining phases of 2014-2016, occurrence rates in March equinox are larger than in September equinox, but during the descending period of 2010-2011, the occurrence rates in September equinox at almost all stations are larger than in March equinox. The correlation coefficients between the monthly occurrence rate of irregularities and the F10.7 solar index at the stations in the equatorward EIA crest region are higher than at those in the magnetic equatorial and the poleward EIA crest regions. The irregularity occurrence is high in the pre-midnight sector, maximum between 2000 LT to 2200 LT. The maximum irregularity occurrence is located around 4-5° degrees in latitude equator-ward away from the anomaly crests.

Abundant granitoids aged 24.59 Ma to 28.62 Ma were exposed along Phu Hoat high metamorphic zone, northern of the Truong Son belt, termed Na Khoun complex in Northern Laos (NL) and Ban Chieng complex in Western Vietnam (WV). Ten granitic samples were collected from these complexes show geochemical characteristics of high SiO2 and K2O contents, medium peraluminous that belong to S-type granites. Initial 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratios and εNd(t) are broad values of 0.708507 to 0.74539 and -5.22 to -12.66, respectively, together with high 206Pb/204Pb (18.864-19.392), 207Pb/204Pb (15.736-15.841) and 208Pb/204Pb (39.224-40.080) which indicated crustal origin, we suggest that the NL-WV intrusion was associated with transpression form by the India-Asia collision events during Cenozoic.

In recent years, the demand for electric power in Vietnam has increased at annual growth rates of 10% to 12%, and the challenge is to promote renewable energy sector. One of these sustainable energy sources is to harness energy from the wind through wind turbines (WTs). In fact, more wind power plants in Vietnam are continuously to be built due to the rapidly growing demand of country's industrialization and modernization process. However, a significant hindrance preventing the widespread use of WTs in Vietnam is the noise they produce, which significantly contributes to the annoyance experienced by residents living near wind farms. The prediction of noise impacts for new wind farms is one of the many aspects of the environmental impact assessment process in Vietnam as well as in the world. In addition, the determination of the 45 dBA noise contour-line is very important because it is the basis for determining the scope of the project impact according to the IFC/WB performance standards and the number of households to be relocated from the project site. The article’s main focus is therefore on the estimation and simulation of the acoustical noise produced by 18 WTs during the operation phase of Nexif Energy Ben Tre wind power plant and the background noise levels at the project site have been performed by using a combination of specific study methods such as environmental modeling (iNoise Pro modeling software), mapping and geographic information systems. The obtained results show the importance of using modeling method in quantifying the noise levels generated from 18 wind turbines of the Nexif Energy Ben Tre wind power plant met IFC standard and Vietnamese regulation on noise during day-time, but did not meet IFC standard on noise during night-time. The level of background noise measured during night-time in the project area also did not meet IFC standard. Therefore, the overall cumulative noise level exceeds the IFC standard for residential area (45 dBA only). In addition, the appropriate solutions to reduce noise levels from WTs are also proposed.
近年来，越南的电力需求以每年10%至12%的增长率增长，挑战在于促进可再生能源行业。这些可持续能源之一是通过风力涡轮机（WT）利用风能。事实上，由于越南工业化和现代化进程的快速增长需求，越南正在不断建设更多的风电场。然而，阻碍WT在越南广泛使用的一个重要障碍是其产生的噪音，这大大增加了居住在风电场附近的居民的烦恼。预测新风电场的噪声影响是越南和世界环境影响评估过程的许多方面之一。此外，45 dBA噪声等值线的确定非常重要，因为它是根据国际金融公司/世界银行绩效标准确定项目影响范围和从项目现场搬迁的家庭数量的基础。因此，本文的主要重点是对Nexif Energy Ben Tre风电场运行阶段18个WT产生的声学噪声进行估计和模拟，并通过使用特定研究方法的组合，如环境建模（iNoise Pro建模软件），地图和地理信息系统。所获得的结果表明，在量化Nexif Energy Ben Tre风力发电厂18台风力涡轮机产生的噪声水平时，使用建模方法的重要性符合国际金融公司的标准和越南关于白天噪声的法规，但不符合国际金融公司关于夜间噪声的标准。项目区域夜间测量的背景噪声水平也不符合IFC标准。因此，总体累积噪声水平超过了国际金融公司对住宅区的标准（仅45 dBA）。此外，还提出了降低WT噪声水平的适当解决方案。
