Forest Fire Risk Prediction [PDF]

, 2021
Globally, fire regimes are being altered by changing climatic conditions and land use changes. This has the potential to drive species extinctions and cause ecosystem state changes, with a range of consequences for ecosystem services. Accurate prediction

Additive‐Manufactured, Multifunctional Bioreactor Technology for Dynamic Culture of 3D Bioprinted Tissue Models

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We introduce an additively manufactured bioreactor with a perfusion flow system and integrated temperature and pH sensors for skeletal muscle tissue biofabrication. The bioreactor's performance was evaluated by assessing the viability, spreading of the myoblast cells in a printed scaffold, and contraction of the isolated murine musculi interossei ...

Fitting the Generalized Pareto Distribution to Commercial Fire Loss Severity: Evidence from Taiwan [PDF]

, 2012
This paper focuses on modeling and estimating tail parameters of loss distributions from Taiwanese commercial fire loss severity. Using extreme value theory, we employ the generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) and compare it with standard parametric ...

Spectral response of temperature and vegetation in regions with an incidence of hotspots in a river basin, case study

Biodiversidade Brasileira, 2020
Fires significantly alter the vegetation cover, directly influencing the temperature of the soil surface, with vegetation being a natural regulator of the temperature of the environment. Thus, the objective was to evaluate in areas with higher incidence
