Drivers of plant community composition and diversity in low Arctic western Greenland

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The Arctic experiences rapid climate change, but our ability to predict how this will influence plant communities is hampered by a lack of data on the extent to which different species are associated with particular environmental conditions, how these conditions are interlinked, and how they will change in coming years.

The time of acquisition of multispectral predictors matters: the role of seasonality in bird species distribution models

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDMs) analyse the relationships between species occurrences and environmental predictors. Their efficacy largely depends on the selection of ecologically relevant predictors, with remote sensing (RS) data being one of the most commonly used sources. The usability of multispectral predictors is influenced by temporal changes

Application of trajectory optimization techniques to upper atmosphere sampling flights using the F4-C Phantom aircraft [PDF]

open access: yes
Altitude potential of an off-the-shelf F4-C aircraft is examined. It is shown that the standard F4-C has a maximum altitude capability in the region from 85000 to 95000 ft, depending on the minimum dynamic pressures deemed acceptable for adequate flight ...

A Comparative Life Cycle Assessment of Residential Heating Systems in Tehran, Iran

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution from different gas heating systems in residential buildings has significant impacts, especially in urban areas due to their high density. This study conducts a comparative life cycle assessment of two commonly used residential heating systems in Tehran: the Central Boiler Room (CBR) and the wall‐hung boiler (WHB). Using

Effect of limb darkening on earth radiation incident on a spherical satellite [PDF]

open access: yes
The thermal radiation from the earth incident on a spherical satellite depends on the angular distribution of earth-emitted radiation. An analysis is presented of this dependency, and calculated results are given, based on a published limb-darkening ...

Effect of Sand Particle Size on Sand–Water Flow in a Francis‐99 Distributor

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To examine the sand–water flow characteristics in the distributor of the Francis‐99 hydraulic turbine, numerical simulations were conducted using the Mixture multiphase flow model, focusing on the impact of varying sand particle sizes. The findings indicate that near‐wall velocities of sand and water in the fixed and guide vanes of the ...
