This study investigates the vertical dynamic response of a 52‐story high‐rise building in downtown Los Angeles using small‐magnitude earthquake data recorded by the Community Seismic Network. While seismic design traditionally emphasizes horizontal ground motion, vertical accelerations can have a significant impact on tall structures, leading to ...

Clarifying nomenclatural uncertainties in Jupunba (Caesalpinioideae, Leguminosae)
Molecular phylogenetic studies have prompted substantial revisions in the systematics of the former genus Abarema, resulting in the reinstatement of the genera Punjuba and Jupunba, and a re‐circumscription of Abarema. Despite these advances, some taxa still require nomenclatural adjustments to reflect monophyletic lineages.

ABSTRACT Transnational collaboration is critical for water‐security innovation, yet actor configurations and thematic priorities remain poorly characterized. We surveyed 92 Australian and Brazilian researchers from the Tropical Water Research Alliance (TWRA), analyzing 11 sets of binary variables on collaboration modes, stakeholders, implementation ...

Abstract The climatic impacts of land cover changes (LCCs) due to altered biophysical properties include local effects in LCC areas and nonlocal effects in both LCC and non‐LCC areas resulting from atmospheric feedback. The biophysical impacts of LCC simulated by climate models typically represent only the total effects, that is, the sum of local and ...
