IVyTools: Space–Time Image Velocimetry for Streamflow

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate streamflow measurements are essential for hydrologic monitoring, flood forecasting, and water resource management. Traditional in situ methods, although reliable, are often impractical or unsafe during flood conditions or at inaccessible locations. Image velocimetry techniques offer a potential non‐contact alternative, yet operational

Urban Housing Markets and Sustainability Risk: Empirical Evidence From South African Cities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the global shift toward sustainability and rising expectations for socially and environmentally responsible housing, evidence from South Africa's urban markets remains limited and underexplored. This study examines how sustainability‐related vulnerabilities shape downside housing risk across 60 cities between 2002 and 2021.

Yeast Knockout Strain Collection: Driving Functional Genomics, Biotechnological Applications and Human Disease Research

Yeast, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The knockout strain collection of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has served as a valuable resource for functional genomics and yeast‐based biotechnology studies. A comprehensive single‐gene knockout strain collection, covering nearly all non‐essential genes, together with complementary mutant collections for essential genes, including temperature ...

Existence of scale invariant solutions to horizontal flow with a Fujita type diffusion coefficient

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2012
Summary: We study a boundary-initial value problem on the half-line for the diffusion equation with a Fujita type diffusion coefficient that carries a parameter \(\alpha \). The equation models the flow of water in soil within an approximation where gravitational effects are not taken into account and, when \(\alpha = 1\), an explicit self-similar ...

Rare Lightning and Convection Characteristics During Two Successive Tornadoes in Southern China

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systematic investigations into lightning characteristics of tornado storms in China remain scarce. This study comprehensively analyses rare lightning behaviour and overshooting top characteristics for two successive tornadoes during a long‐lived supercell in southern China on 27 April 2024.

Clinical and Patient‐Reported Factors Associated With Impaired Quality of Life in Japanese Patients With Vitiligo: A Multicenter Questionnaire Study Using VitiQoL

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitiligo can cause a substantial psychosocial burden. However, the clinical and patient‐reported features associated with impaired disease‐specific quality of life (QoL) in Japanese patients remain incompletely characterized. We conducted a multicenter, cross‐sectional questionnaire study to examine the associations between the Vitiligo ...

Revisiting a 25-year database of tornado damage paths using the new International Fujita (IF) scale

Natural Hazards
Abstract Tornadoes are generally small and short-lived, making direct wind measurements scarce and complicating wind velocity estimation. To overcome this problem, tornado intensities have been rated indirectly using damage scales such as the Fujita (F) scale, the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale or the International Fujita (IF) scale ...

Diet, phenology and body size shape nutrient release by songbirds

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals can dramatically alter ecosystem structure and function through the cycling and transport of nutrients in their waste. While birds are particularly capable of influencing nutrient cycles due to their high mobility, abundance, metabolism and functional diversity,

Goose herbivory alters soil microbial community functional potential in a sub‐Arctic wetland

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Herbivory alters below‐ground resource dynamics via direct and indirect mechanisms, yet its effects on microbial functional potential remain poorly understood. This limits our understanding of the mechanisms that link animal, plant and microbial functional roles in ...
