THE USE OF PARABOLIC SPLINEES IN CAD OF LINEAR STRUCTURES
The article continues studying the problem of the calculus of variations that occurs in line structures routing, in particular, roads. The task is to find a line that satisfies all technical constraints and gives a minimum of a given functional, for ...

Information and entropy theory for the sustainability of coupled human and natural systems
For coupled human and natural systems (CHANS), sustainability can be defined operationally as a feasible, desirable set of flows (material, currency, information, energy, individuals, etc.) that can be maintained despite internal changes and changes in ...

Trophic interactions and feedbacks maintain intact and degraded states of Hawaiian tropical forests
Feedbacks within ecosystems can lead to internal reinforcement of the current state providing ecosystem resilience. Often, multiple biotic interactions across trophic levels play a role in such feedbacks, yet these are generally studied independently ...

Diagnosis of Local Land-Atmosphere Feedbacks in India [PDF]
Following the convective triggering potential (CTP)–humidity index (HIlow) framework by Findell and Eltahir, the sensitivity of atmospheric convection to soil moisture conditions is studied for India.
