Extreme Potomac Floods at Washington D.C. During the Past 500 Years

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Washington D.C. faces one of the highest 100‐year flood risks of any major city along the U.S. East Coast. In addition to storm‐surge inundation during hurricanes and nor'easters, water‐level observations for Washington are strongly skewed by major floods on the Potomac River.

Comparison of data on Mutation Frequencies of Mice Caused by Radiation - Low Dose Model -

, 2013
We propose LD(Low Dose) model, the extension of LDM model which was proposed in the previous paper [Y. Manabe et al.: J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 81 (2012) 104004] to estimate biological damage caused by irradiation. LD model takes account of all the considerable

Results from the First Science Run of the ZEPLIN-III Dark Matter Search Experiment [PDF]

, 2008
The ZEPLIN-III experiment in the Palmer Underground Laboratory at Boulby uses a 12kg two-phase xenon time projection chamber to search for the weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) that may account for the dark matter of our Galaxy.

Model Intercomparison of Atmospheric 137Cs From the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Accident: Simulations Based on Identical Input Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2018
A model intercomparison of the atmospheric dispersion of cesium‐137 (137Cs) emitted after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident in Japan was conducted to understand the behavior of atmospheric 137Cs in greater detail. The same meteorological

Permafrost Thaw Dynamics Drive the Regime Shifts of Iron‐Bound Organic Carbon Sequestration in the East Siberian Arctic Shelf

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract In the changing Arctic, permafrost thaw is shifting from gradual to abrupt. Although iron‐bound organic carbon (OC‐FeR) critically modulates permafrost carbon‐climate feedbacks, its decadal‐scale variability and response to this regime shift remain poorly constrained.

137Cs distribution in guava trees [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Physics, 2004
This paper presents results of 137 Cs concentration measured from a guava tree cultivated after the first decontamination work of one of the sites where the worst Brazilian radiological accident occurred. The present work aims to verify how the 137 Cs is transported and distributed along the tropical trees.

Measurement of Neutrino-Electron Scattering Cross-Section with a CsI(Tl) Scintillating Crystal Array at the Kuo-Sheng Nuclear Power Reactor

, 2010
The $\bar{\nu}_{e}-e^{-}$ elastic scattering cross-section was measured with a CsI(Tl) scintillating crystal array having a total mass of 187kg. The detector was exposed to an average reactor $\bar{\nu}_{e}$ flux of $\rm{6.4\times 10^{12} ~ cm^{-2}s^{-1}}
