The effect of water stage on the infiltration rate for initially dry channels [PDF]
, 2007 Several hydrological models that are used for simulating the water flow in rivers and channels are based on the shallow water equations as in Copeland and El-Hanafy, (2006) or Saint Venant equations (El-Hanafy and Copeland, 2007a). Both the shallow water

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Women's inclusion is now the norm in global and local initiatives to combat climate change. We examine how women's representation affects climate deliberations using the case of community‐managed forests in Malawi. We run a lab‐in‐the‐field experiment randomly varying the gender composition of six‐member groups asked to deliberate on policies ...

Allergy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

Which hydrological activity in weathered bedrock during flash floods? The case of Mediterranean catchments [PDF]
, 2014 "Flash flood" term refers to flood with a high specific discharge resulting from storm events of strong intensity. The steepness of numerous small catchments (of a few km2) contributes to a short response time, and the generation of runoff can suddenly ...

Archaeometry, EarlyView.Abstract The use of stone hammers to produce sharp stone flakes—knapping—is thought to represent a significant stage in hominin technological evolution because it facilitated the exploitation of novel resources, including meat obtained from medium‐to‐large‐sized vertebrates. The invention of knapping may have occurred via an additive (i.e., cumulative)

Mediterranean extreme floods and flash floods
, 2016 The Mediterranean area is particularly exposed to flash floods. Floods are weather-related hazards and their patterns are likely to be significantly affected by climate change. Floods are already the most frequent and among the costliest and deadliest natural disasters worldwide (Munich RE, NatCat Service; Swiss RE, 2015).
