Modeling Flood Perils and Flood Insurance Program in Taiwan [PDF]
Taiwan had approximately 3,000 buildings damaged by floods with an economic loss of NT$12.8 billion annually, a figure 4.5 times more than economic losses due to fire damages. Many insurers become extremely cautious when underwriting their flood policies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Functional compensation between clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 in cochlear hair cells. Hearing loss associated with CLRN1 mutations shows striking phenotypic variability; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study reveals that clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 function cooperatively in cochlear hair cells to sustain mechanoelectrical ...

Dorsal Raphe VIP Neurons Are Critical for Survival‐Oriented Vigilance
Advanced Science, EarlyView.DRNVIP neurons in mice and primates are strategically positioned to influence the central extended amygdala via feedback loops. They regulate the excitability of PKC‐δ neurons in the ovBNST and CeA through glutamate release. Their ablation heightens activity in these regions, disrupts active‐phase sleep architecture, enhances risk assessment behaviors ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A phosphorus‐containing multifunctional monomer is successfully synthesized to simultaneously enable the dissolution of lithium nitrate in ester‐based electrolytes and in situ form a flame‐retardant gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). The formed GPE effectively stabilizes the structures of both the cathode and anode, thereby achieving superior long‐term ...

Afforestation reduces fire occurrence in Colombia’s tropical savannas
Environmental Research LettersChanges in land use, climate, and socio-ecology drive altered fire regimes that in turn reshape global ecosystems. Rapid afforestation with commercial tree plantations is transforming fire-prone savannas and grasslands globally and particularly in ...

Integrating fire risk into the management of forests [PDF]
In a standard cash-flow data-sheet analysis, the quantification of the impact of exogenous variables and management decisions on the investment’s Net Present Value is limited to only a few scenarios. This perspective is insufficient for an efficient risk

Neuromorphic Motor Control with Electrolyte‐Gated Organic Synaptic Transistors
Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.Electrolyte‐gated organic synaptic transistor (EGOST)‐based neuromorphic motor control systems integrate sensing, processing, and actuation by mimicking biological synapses. With advantages such as low power consumption, tunable synaptic plasticity, and mechanical flexibility, they are emerging as next‐generation core technologies for real‐time ...
