Understanding changes in global ocean heat content (OHC) is essential for investigating Earth's energy imbalance and climate change. OHC trends are assessed using four state-of-the-art ocean reanalyses and one objective analysis. The spatial OHC trend patterns captured by reanalyses are consistent ...
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) can cause devastating impacts to marine life. Despite the serious consequences of MHWs, our understanding of their drivers is largely based on isolated case studies rather than any systematic unifying assessment. Here we provide t
industries, and ecosystems. Weather extremes, rather than changes in the mean climate, are the most consequential impact of global climate change (Kim2005; Trenberth et al.2007), though these extreme events may significantly respond to small changes in the mean climate (Katz and Brown1992). Ass...
Climate change (CC) will likely significantly impact the world’s infrastructure significantly. Rising temperatures, increased precipitation, and rising sea levels are all likely to stress critical infrastructures (CI). Rising temperatures can lead to infrastructure damage from extreme heat events. This ...
It is getting polluted in a number of ways. There is urgency in controlling the soil pollution in order to preserve the soil fertility and increase the productivity. Pollution may be defined as an undesirable change in the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of air, water and soil...
According to Alvarado and Manrique (2010), EOR is “a set of production technologies that involve the injection of energy or fluids to improve oil recovery at any stage of production.” Nowadays, EOR methods play a significant role in the global oil market through their capacity to grow up ...
The REA was conducted primarily because there was a paucity of scientific information on the Great Morass. Baseline data were urgently needed for a relatively large area of wetland. The analysis of extent and lack of change over time are acceptable deliverables of the imagery methods. This evaluat...
Our objectives were to design, construct and test a novel sensor providing estimates of water content and electrical conductivity. The heat-pulse sensor is constructed of dual parallel needles, one of which serves as a heater while the other contains a thermistor for temperature measurement. We ...
The wave energy resource around the coasts of Taiwan is investigated with wave buoy data covering a 3-year period (2007–2009). Eleven study sites wit
