URBAN MICRO CLIMATE MODELLING USING DIFFERENT URBAN PHYISCS SCHEMES AND HIGH RESOLUTION LULC WITH WRF MODEL [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018
Urban areas are treated as a single entity by mesoscale urban canopy models (UCM) for assessing the influence of urban morphology on climate. Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) coupled with UCM along with urban physics options to describe the ...

Demand Shocks, Export Diversification, and Firm Performance During the Great Trade Collapse

Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the impact of external demand shocks from the 2008 to 2009 Great Trade Collapse on the performance of Chinese exporters and examines how export diversification mitigates these effects. Using Chinese Customs data merged with financial data from all listed Chinese firms, we construct firm‐specific demand shocks based on pre ...

Buildings for low energy air conditioning [PDF]

, 1998
Over half of global warming is thought to be attributable to the burning of fossil fuelsand slightly less than half of this is due to conditioning the environment withinbuildings.

Right-Handed Neutrinos and T-Violating, P-Conserving Interactions [PDF]

, 2016
We show that experimental probes of the P-conserving, T-violating triple correlation in polarized neutron or nuclear $\beta$-decay provide a unique probe of possible T-violation at the TeV scale in the presence of right-handed neutrinos.

Weighing the options: a test of alternative stomatal optimisation models at high temperatures

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stomatal optimisation models centre upon a fundamental tradeoff for plants: opening stomata promotes carbon uptake, but closing stomata prevents water loss. However, stomatal opening can occur at high temperatures, causing evaporative cooling which limits thermal damage to leaves.

Brazil's Public Administration and the Challenge of New Democracies: Promoting Social Inclusion

Public Administration Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brazil's public administration (PA) has sought to strengthen democratic governance through an emphasis on social inclusion. Since democratization in 1988, reforms have aimed to address entrenched inequalities along with decentralization and professionalism spurring innovations in social inclusion.

Stable Model Reduction for Time‐Domain Room Acoustics: A Structure‐Preserving Formulation for Complex Boundaries

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 5, 15 March 2026.
ABSTRACT This work presents novel structure‐preserving formulations for stable model order reduction in the context of time‐domain room acoustics simulations. A solution to address the instability in conventional model order reduction formulations based on the Linearized Euler Equations is derived and validated through numerical experiments.
