As sea levels are rising, the number of chronic flooding events at high tide is increasing across the world coastlines. Yet, many events reported so far either lack observational evidence of flooding, or relate to coastal areas where ground subsidence or
In the wake of climate change, extreme events such as heatwaves are considered to be key players in the terrestrial biosphere. In the past decades, the frequency and severity of heatwaves have risen substantially, and they are projected to continue to in
In order to function, the elements have to cooperate for substrate rather than to compete. They have to take what they need and pass some on. If this is then going to get refined and become more sophisticated, it might acquire an information molecule like DNA, competitively excluding other ...
This rapid warming could significantly accelerate the hydrological cycle, imbalance the transformation of snow and ice into liquid water, cause substantial water storage loss, and increase flood risk, thus affecting water resources and ecosystems in downstream areas (Cui et al., 2023; Immerzeel et ...
In order to optimize the safety and manage the risks associated with advanced reactor designs, a safety assessment approach should also support safety that is “built-in” to the system design in a fundamental way, rather than “added on” to compensate for safety limitations (GIF, 2002). In...
The community shows up in droves to enjoy a packed schedule of live music, cultural events, and festivals. There's not a summer day in Erie without something to do.Is camping out at a days-long music festival your thing? More into a BYOB, lawn chair vibe? Either way, we've got you...
STEM competitions allow for individual or student teams to solve a specific challenge or problem through science, technology, engineering, or mathematics. Many of these challenges are rooted in real-world issues, encouraging participants to use creativity and critical thinking in order to come up with...
The hierarchical framework has three levels. The first level simulates a latent Gaussian random field conditioned on the previous time step. In the second level, first-order autoregressive (AR(1)) models are used to describe the within-storm ...关键词:...
Deep-water renewal (DWR) events are characterized in the Strait of Georgia, Canada using 11 years of real-time physical and chemical oceanographic data and seafloor videos. At least 6 DWRs occur per year at 300 m water depth and each event continues f
was initiated by a nosepoke and rats were required to correctly identify each odor as either InSeq (by holding their nosepoke response until a tone signaled the end of the odor at 1.2 s) or OutSeq (by withdrawing their nose before the signal; <1.2 s) to receive a water reward...
