Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Flood Risk and Flood hazard maps – Visualisation of hydrological risks

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2008
Hydrological models are an important basis of flood forecasting and early warning systems. They provide significant data on hydrological risks. In combination with other modelling techniques, such as hydrodynamic models, they can be used to assess the extent and impact of hydrological events. The new European Flood Directive forces all member states to

Lithiophilic Current Collector Without Interfacial Penalty in Zero‐Excess Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bilayer lithiophilic coatings are introduced to overcome the structural fragility of conventional single‐layer current collectors in zero‐excess Li‐metal batteries (ZE‐LMBs). By integrating density functional theory with electrochemical analyses, the Ag‐outer/Pt‐inner configuration enables uniform Li deposition, robust SEI formation, and persistent ...

An advanced method for flood risk analysis in river deltas, applied to societal flood fatality risk in the Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014
This paper discusses a new method for flood risk assessment in river deltas. Flood risk analysis of river deltas is complex, because both storm surges and river discharges may cause flooding and the effect of upstream breaches on downstream water levels ...

Using GIS to Evaluate the Effects of Flood Risk on Residential Property Values [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Annually, flooding causes more property damage in the United States than any other type of natural disaster. One of the consequences of continued urbanization is the tendency for floodplains to expand, increasing flood risks in the areas around urban ...
