Steamship Portland: Fetch Me a Wave [PDF]
In this lesson students discover how ocean waves form and the effect of extreme storms on wave formation. They will investigate the "Portland Gale" of 1898, the Halloween Nor'easter of 1991 (known as "The Perfect Storm"), and discuss hybrid storms and ...

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Vorticity imbalance and stability in relation to convection [PDF]
A complete synoptic-scale vorticity budget was related to convection storm development in the eastern two-thirds of the United States. The 3-h sounding interval permitted a study of time changes of the vorticity budget in areas of convective storms ...

Do Banks Learn From Natural Disasters? Evidence From the U.S. Financial Sector
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines whether U.S. banks learn from natural disasters. We explore several potential channels of adjustment and find that exposed banks primarily respond by adopting precautionary capital measures. This behaviour is evident both in the long run, when assessing divergent trends in the evolution of equity over time, and in the short

Microspherules Formed by Lightning Strikes
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.

A multispectral study of an extratropical cyclone with Nimbus 3 medium resolution infrared radiometer data [PDF]
Four registered channels (0.2 to 4, 6.5 to 7, 10 to 11, and 20 to 23 microns) of the Nimbus 3 Medium Resolution Infrared Radiometer (MRIR) were used to study 24-hr changes in the structure of an extratropical cyclone during a 6-day period in May 1969 ...
