Mapping and valuation of ecosystems and economic activities along the coast of Cameroon: implications of future sea level rise. [PDF]
, 2009 The vulnerability of the coastal zone of Cameroon to flooding from sea level rise (SLR) was quantified using Geographic Information System (GIS) flooding analysis.

Adaptive Probabilistic Flooding for Multipath Routing
, 2011 In this work, we develop a distributed source routing algorithm for topology discovery suitable for ISP transport networks, that is however inspired by opportunistic algorithms used in ad hoc wireless networks.

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.This study compares indoor low‐light and outdoor high‐light degradation in perovskite thin films. Under ∼1000 lux [N2], films remain stable; in oxygen, the same low light triggers strain, surface oxidation, and shorter lifetimes. Whereas high light accelerates decomposition to PbI2 and metallic oxides.

Environmental Research LettersClimate change is expected to alter the magnitude and frequency of river floods. Post-event analyses often assess the rarity of events from historical observations, and a growing number of studies attempt to attribute the event’s severity to ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Coping with Floods in Pikine, Senegal: An Exploration of Household Impacts and Prevention Efforts
Urban Science, 2019 African cities are at increasing risk for disasters, including floods. Pikine, Senegal—located on the outskirts of the Dakar metropolitan region—has experienced regular floods since 2005 due to a rising water table, dense settlement, and ...

Pahang Flood Disaster : The Potential Flood Drivers
Malaysian Journal of Geosciences, 2017 The northeast monsoon which occurs from November to March carries heavy rainfall which always result in flood especially to the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Pahang was one of the state that severely affected by this flood. Although the heavy rain is the main driver of the flood but human being cannot ignore the other flood drivers especially the ...

Does Low-Density Grazing Affect Butterfly (Lepidoptera) Colonization of a Previously Flooded Tallgrass Prairie Reconstruction? [PDF]
, 2018 Conservation of wildlife in managed landscapes can be facilitated by partnering with livestock producers to introduce grazing disturbances. The effects of grazing in grassland systems, however, are often a function of other disturbances that may occur ...

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat
Advanced 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
