Best Kitesurfing Spots US | Maui, Key West July 1, 2023 by Torsten Bjord The best kitesurfing spots for you depend on your skill level, craving for adventure, and interests away from the water. The US has four destinations with waves, weather, scenery, and land activities – whether yo...
Demand for freshwater in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is increasing dramatically due to massive population growth, despite the scarcity of available freshwater resources. Freshwater per capita will be severely compromised as the region’s population is projected to increase. In 2018...
Future climate scenarios were incorporated in the Tutuila SWB2 model by substituting the original monthly precipitation and maximum and minimum air temperature grids with grids from Wang and Zhang (2016). The SWB2 evapotranspiration method was also changed to internally calculate PET with the ...
Diving is year round in Tonga. In the month of January the temperature is about 99 degrees with 99 % humidity but with it often comes smooth seas, clear water, and perfect conditions for dive operators to travel to remote sites and to do blue water dives on Fab buoys and sea mounts hop...
Through the remote monitoring of dissolved oxygen, pH, and temperature, Encinas et al. [39] built and put into place a distributed system for maintaining the water quality in aquaculture. This initiative will help monitor pond water quality remotely via a distributed monitoring system connected to...
The water vapor weighted mean temperature, which is necessary for this procedure, can be estimated through, e.g., its linear relationship with the surface temperature [43,44]. In this study, we focus on the inter-seasonal variability of the PWV, estimated based on the GNSS observations ...
In addition, changing salinity, temperature, and depth all can affect the propagation speed of underwater acoustic waves. The propagation delay in underwater environments is dynamic, which also increases the difficulty of routing protocol design. 3.1.2. High energy consumption The acoustic wave ...
Groundwater Levels, Temperature, Specific Conductivity (Salinity) and Water Geochemistry An assessment of Roi-Namur's shallow freshwater lens was carried out from November 2013 to April 2015. This assessment included surveys of groundwater levels, temperature and specific conductivity (salinity) in a ...
Furthermore, the method is the only available in SWB that is capable of producing spatially distributed output grids rather than just one uniform value to be applied over the entire island. The application of the H–S method requires gridded data of maximum and minimum daily temperature (Tmax,...
Global precipitation will increase with temperature at a rate of 2.3% ◦C−1 [2] due to the total water vapor in the atmosphere, which will also increase because of the warming effect. Therefore, global precipitation is notably increasing at 13.2 ± 4.8 mm year−1 decade−1 [3]. ...
