Reduced methane emissions from large-scale changes in water management of China’s rice paddies during 1980-2000 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Decreased methane emissions from paddy rice may have contributed to the decline in the rate of increase of global atmospheric methane (CH4) concentration over the last 20 years. In China, midseason paddy drainage, which reduces growing season CH4 fluxes,

Atmospheric Rivers Increase Future Flood Risk in Western Canada's Largest Pacific River

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
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

open access: yesЗерновое хозяйство России, 2022
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 ...

Neighbourhood-aware counter-based broadcast scheme for wireless ad hoc networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Broadcasting is a vital operation in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and it is crucial to enhance its efficiency to ensure successful deployment. Although flooding is ideal for broadcast operations due to its simplicity and high reachability it ...

The impact of flooding on road transport: A depth-disruption function

open access: yes, 2017
Transport networks underpin economic activity by enabling the movement of goods and people. During extreme weather events transport infrastructure can be directly or indirectly damaged, posing a threat to human safety, and causing significant disruption ...

Most atolls will be uninhabitable by the mid-21st century because of sea-level rise exacerbating wave-driven flooding

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
Sea-level rise and wave-driven flooding will damage freshwater resources of most atolls and soon render them uninhabitable. Sea levels are rising, with the highest rates in the tropics, where thousands of low-lying coral atoll islands are located.

Steps to Develop Early Warning Systems and Future Scenarios of Storm Wave-Driven Flooding Along Coral Reef-Lined Coasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Tropical coral reef-lined coasts are exposed to storm wave-driven flooding. In the future, flood events during storms are expected to occur more frequently and to be more severe due to sea-level rise, changes in wind and weather patterns, and the ...

Performance evaluation of flooding in MANETs in the presence of multi-broadcast traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
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,
