Numerical simulations of the impacts of mountain on oasis effects in arid Central Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The oases in the mountain-basin systems of Central Asia are extremely fragile. Investigating oasis effects and oasis-desert interactions is important for understanding the ecological stability of oases.

Evaluation of the Algorithms and Parameterizations for Ground Thawing and Freezing Simulation in Permafrost Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Ground thawing and freezing depths (GTFDs) strongly influence the hydrology and energy balances of permafrost regions. Current methods to simulate GTFD differ in algorithm type, soil parameterization, representation of latent heat, and unfrozen water ...

Some properties of strong solutions to nonlinear heat and moisture transport in multi-layer porous structures

open access: yes, 2011
The present paper deals with mathematical models of heat and moisture transport in layered building envelopes. The study of such processes generates a system of two doubly nonlinear evolution partial differential equations with appropriate initial and ...

A review of wildland fire spread modelling, 1990-present, 1: Physical and quasi-physical models

open access: yes, 2007
In recent years, advances in computational power and spatial data analysis (GIS, remote sensing, etc) have led to an increase in attempts to model the spread and behaviour of wildland fires across the landscape. This series of review papers endeavours to
