Flood maps in Spain

open access: yesEstudios Geográficos, 2017
Las inundaciones han merecido análisis y estudio desde época histórica en España. Los informes y memoriales elaborados tras el desarrollo de un gran evento incluyen, a partir del siglo XVIII , mapas de las zonas afectadas. Estas primeras cartografías han ido mejorando en relación con los avances cartográficos y la incorporación de nuevos métodos de ...

Human-Guided Flood Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesCompanion of the The Web Conference 2018 on The Web Conference 2018 - WWW '18, 2018
Hurricane-induced flooding can lead to substantial loss of life and huge damage to infrastructure. Mapping flood extent from satellite or aerial imagery is essential for prioritizing relief efforts and for assessing future flood risk. Identification of water extent in such images can be challenging considering the heterogeneity in water body size and ...

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Near Real-Time Single-Image SAR Flood Mapping With Synthetic Pre-Event Reference: On-Demand COSMO-SkyMed Case Study

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Near-real-time (NRT) flood mapping from on-demand synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data is often hindered by the lack of a suitable pre-event image in the archive.

Flood risk mapping for the area with mixed floods and human impact: a case study of Yarkant River Basin in Xinjiang, China

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications, 2023
Flooding has been causing severe consequences worldwide, including loss of human life and damage to property. Flood risk mapping, as a nonstructural measure, is efficient for flood protection and disaster alleviation.

Transcription Factor Promiscuity Drives Regulatory Rewiring and Evolvability in Gene Networks in Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
When a master transcription factor (TF) is lost, bacteria can rapidly rewire gene regulatory networks by co‐opting related regulators. Using experimental evolution in Pseudomonas fluorescens, we show that TF promiscuity (low‐level, non‐cognate binding) provides the raw material for rewiring. Successful co‐option follows a predictable hierarchy governed
