Review and Prospects of Hydrological Component Development of ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee

open access: yesTropical Cyclone Research and Review, 2018
: Hydrological Component has been one of three essential parts of ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee. The Working Group on Hydrology (WGH) established at TC 33rd Session in 2000 is the first working group among three basic components of the Committee, which has

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

Targeting property flood resilience in flood risk management

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2021
In this article, we evaluate property flood resilience (PFR) to manage pluvial and combined tidal/ fluvial flood risks. We achieve this by evaluating flood risk and intervention targeting strategies across a case study in Bristol (UK) using data types ...

An Increasing Misalignment Between Crop Distribution and Environmental Resources Under Climate Change in China

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Climate change reshapes the spatial alignment between crop production and environmental resources. Using multi‐source data and a crop model, integrated climatic, water, and soil endowments for maize and wheat are quantified and compared with harvest distributions.

Advancing flood resilience: the nexus between flood risk management, green infrastructure, and resilience

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Cities, 2023
IntroductionClimate change and the fast pace of urbanization are two major factors contributing to the exacerbated risk of flooding in urban areas. Flood resilience strategies, underpinned by the principles of green infrastructure, are gaining importance

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 ...

Comparative analysis of spring flood risk reduction measures in Alaska, United States and the Sakha Republic, Russia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Thesis (Ph.D.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2017River ice thaw and breakup are an annual springtime phenomena in the North. Depending on regional weather patterns and river morphology, breakups can result in catastrophic floods in exposed and ...
