Atmospheric Rivers Increase Future Flood Risk in Western Canada's Largest Pacific River
Snow‐dominated watersheds are bellwethers of climate change. Hydroclimate projections in such basins often find reductions in annual peak runoff due to decreased snowpack under global warming. British Columbia's Fraser River Basin (FRB) is a large, nival

Study of the initial growth energy of the rice samples in the laboratory conditions
The current paper has presented the results of estimating rice samples for the ability of energetic plant growth from under a layer of water. The resistance of varieties to flooding is of great relevance in Russia in the fight against weeds due to the ...

Flood-tolerant rice reduces yield variability and raises expected yield, differentially benefitting socially disadvantaged groups. [PDF]
Approximately 30% of the cultivated rice area in India is prone to crop damage from prolonged flooding. We use a randomized field experiment in 128 villages of Orissa India to show that Swarna-Sub1, a recently released submergence-tolerant rice variety ...

EDX elemental map of the pre‐oxidized MgO–steel cermet anode cross section after electrolysis. The development of inert anodes for aluminum electrolysis remains challenging due to the high corrosivity of cryolite‐based melts at 950°C–1000°C. This study investigates the corrosion and process behavior of a carbon‐free MgO–steel cermet anode derived from ...

Performance evaluation of flooding in MANETs in the presence of multi-broadcast traffic [PDF]
Broadcasting has many important uses and several mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) protocols assume the availability of an underlying broadcast service. Applications, which make use of broadcasting, include LAN emulation, paging a particular node. However,

Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...
