High-dimensional peaks-over-threshold inference
, 2017 Max-stable processes are increasingly widely used for modelling complex extreme events, but existing fitting methods are computationally demanding, limiting applications to a few dozen variables.

Effects of external nutrient sources and extreme weather events on the nutrient budget of a Southern European coastal lagoon [PDF]
, 2016 The seasonal and annual nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and carbon (C) budgets of the mesotidal Ria Formosa lagoon, southern Portugal, were estimated to reveal the main inputs and outputs, the seasonal patterns, and how they may influence the ecological ...

Hydroclimate variability and its statistical links to the large-scale climate indices for the Upper Chao Phraya River Basin, Thailand [PDF]
, 2009 The local hydroclimates get impacts from the large-scale atmospheric variables via atmospheric circulation. The developing of their relationships could enhance the understanding of hydroclimate variability.

Spatial pattern of rainfall events:a background study to modeling and forecasting rainfall [PDF]
, 2014 The study of extreme rainfall events and their spatial coverage is important in identifying areas with high and low extreme events. It has been widely known that extreme rainfall is responsible for major flash flood and landslide events that have caused ...

Can crop disease control cope with climate change? [PDF]
, 2014 Crop yields need to increase by at least 70% over the next 35 years in order to meet the global demands for food due to the increasing population and changing dietary preferences towards meat and dairy products in developing nations.

A note on extreme European rainfall events
Weather, 2013 This historical note is to commemorate an extreme natural disaster, which affected Central Europe in August 2002 (not long ago already ten years had passed since this catastrophe). As to the measured record precipitation amounts, this extreme is compared with similar extreme cases occurring in Central Europe (here the region of A, CZ, D, H, PL, SK) in ...

Anti‐Slip Material‐Based Strategies and Approaches
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review highlights the principle mechanisms of slipping at the microscale, linking contact mechanics with a friction behavior model for surface interfaces. Main strategies to develop anti‐slip properties to the surfaces are discussed alongside standardized testing approaches.
