Our approach provides an exemplar of how to derive centennial palaeoflood reconstructions from lakes coupled well with their catchments around the world. 2019 The Authors. Earth Surface Processes and Landforms Published by John Wiley And Sons Ltd....
根据划线词上文“A pressing concern is the impact the increased flooding and severe droughts will have on a world (一个紧迫的问题是洪水和严重干旱的增加将对世界产生的影响)”可知,像洪水、干旱这样的灾难给世界带来的应该是消极的影响,故资源应该是被一系列灾难消耗殆尽,故划线词与consumed词义相近。故选B...

Moderate rainfall creates ideal conditions for mosquito breeding, while heavy rainfall can lead to flooding and create multiple breeding sites in stagnant water. Studies have been demonstrated that for every 100-mm increase in rainfall, the incidence of dengue cases can increase by approximately 50%,...

Furthermore, the masonry humidity level can also be increased through capillary rise, condensation, stormwater penetration, pipe leakage and water flooding, causing or worsening all the decay processes in architectural heritage [93]. It is noteworthy that salts may originate from a variety of sources...
Wind-generated ocean waves drive important coastal processes that determine flooding and erosion. Ocean warming has been one factor affecting waves globally. Most studies have focused on studying parameters such as wave heights, but a systematic, global
