The mean-flow theory presents a dimensionless flood depth that scales linearly with the urban porosity and the order parameter, with different scaling for disordered square- and hexagon-like forms. A universal scaling is obtained by introducing an effective mean chord length representative of the ...

A number ofgeological cluesindicate a flow of liquid water on Mars’s surface four billion years ago, which would have formed rivers, lakes, and possibly, even oceans. The Martian climate was therefore more temperate than it is today. In explaining how such a climate could have come about, ...
How does energy consumption affect the planet? Overconsumption of energy leads to an adverse effect on climate. It also leads to air, water, and thermal pollution, apart from causing the problems of solid waste disposal and greenhouse gas emissions. ...
In this paper, we analyze articles addressing governance of ecosystem services and measuring, mapping and valuation from 2013 to today. Our review shows that much of the research addressing governance does it in relatively distanced ways, suggesting analytical and operational tools and improvements, ...
In the podcast China Corner Office produced by The China Project, Apple University Professor Doug Guthrie stated, “Apple has a significant market in China, as does Tesla and other companies. But what makes these companies so powerful is their management of the supply chain.” [3] However, as...
Who are the stakeholders with a say in the matter and what is the process for determining what it means for an AV to be a good driver? And, as we will explore in a later section, what are the implications of introducing designed behavior into the traffic ecosystem and its existing ...
Energy Flow in Ecosystems Life Depends on the Sun Energy from the sun enters an ecosystem when organisms use sunlight to make energy/carbs in the process of photosynthesis. As organisms consume other plants or animals, energy is transferred from one organism to another. ...
could be doing better. If it’s not always practical to be the sole customer interface, entrepreneurs should train employees to invite customer comments as a matter of course. Not only does this make customers feel empowered, but happier clients are more likely to recommend businesses to others...
