An Analysis of Extreme Rainfall Events in Cambodia
AtmosphereExtreme rainfall, also known as heavy rainfall or intense precipitation, is a weather event characterized by a significant amount of rainfall within a short period. This study analyzes the trends in extreme precipitation indices at 17 stations in four main regions in Cambodia—the Tonle Sap, coastal, Mekong Delta, and Upper Mekong regions—between 1991 ...

Ultra‐White Elastomeric Coatings for Daytime Radiative Cooling
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Passive daytime radiative cooling meets elasticity in a new class of ultra‐white silicone coatings. Combining high solar reflectance with strong sky‐window emission, they hold surfaces below ambient temperature under full sunlight while remaining flexible and stretchable. This combination of cooling performance and mechanical flexibility enables energy‐
