Mineral Chemistry of Chlorite Replacing Biotite from Granitic Rocks of the Canadian Appalachians [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2009
Chlorite flakes, as a product of alteration of biotite, the dominant ferromagnesian mineral in the Paleozoic granitic rocks of the Canadian Appalachians, have been analyzed by electron microprobe for major elements and by 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy for ...

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

Experimental Investigations of Dynamic Response and Fatigue Damage Characteristics of Granite Under Multi-Level Cyclic Impacts

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Dynamic fatigue of rocks under repeated cyclic impact is a nonconservative property, as surrounding rocks in real environments subjects them to variable impact disturbances, and the degree of damage varies under different energy level loads.

Automated object detection based on YOLOv11 for monitoring benthic population dynamics: A new approach combining photogrammetry and open‐source GIS tools applied to sea cucumbers

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

Experimental Study on the Pre-Peak Mechanical and Seepage Characteristics of Granite

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The Sanshandao Gold Mine is currently in the deep mining stage. The ground pressure on the surrounding rocks is gradually becoming more considerable, and at the same time, threatened by the overlying seawater, the possibility of mine water inrush ...

Soil erosion responses to climate change in a tropical monsoon‐dominated river basin ‐ A geospatial perspective

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to intensify soil erosion in the Chalakkudy River Basin, with bare lands and steep uplands emerging as the most vulnerable hotspots under high‐emission scenarios. Forested areas showed greater resistance to soil erosion, highlighting the importance of targeted soil conservation for sustainable watershed management in ...

Permian Large Igneous Provinces and Their Paleoenvironmental Effects

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 417-434., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Converting an Integer to a Decimal String in Under Two Nanoseconds

open access: yesSoftware: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Converting binary integers to variable‐length decimal strings is a fundamental operation in computing. Conventional fast approaches rely on recursive division and small lookup tables. The goal of this work is to develop a significantly faster method for this task.

Enhancing durability of steam‐cured precast concrete culverts using SCMs: A comparative study with delithiated beta spodumene

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Steam curing is commonly used to manufacture precast culverts to accelerate early strength development. This study investigates the effect of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) on the permeability properties of steam‐cured precast concrete culverts.
