Assessing historical fish community composition using surveys, historical collection data, and species distribution models. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Accurate establishment of baseline conditions is critical to successful management and habitat restoration. We demonstrate the ability to robustly estimate historical fish community composition and assess the current status of the urbanized Barton Creek ...

A COMPOSITE MODELLING APPROACH FOR THE RETROFITTING AND REHABILITATION OF AN HISTORICAL COASTAL ASSET

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2023
The Pont del Petroli pier is a coastal structure located in the coastal town of Badalona, north of Barcelona, in Spain. The pier was built in the 60s to allow mooring of petroleum tankers, but fallen in disuse in 1990. Restored between 2003 and 2009, the pier is now regarded as a historical and social asset of the Catalan coast.

New Sources and Old Methods. Reconstructing and Applying the Music-Theoretical Paratext of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Compositional Pedagogy [PDF]

Zeitschrift der Gesellschaft für Musiktheorie, 2019
In attempting to determine how Johann Sebastian Bach taught composition, this article draws on recent archival discoveries to claim that it was not the ornamented, vocal Choralgesänge, but the simpler, thoroughbass-centered Choralbuch style that played a

Mathematical model for determining the optimal composition of mortars for restoration of historical monuments

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022
Abstract The work covers the compression strength, tensile bending and adhesion of a modified mortar developed by the authors based on local gypsum for the restoration of the Ismail Samani mausoleum and the Kalyan minaret. It has been shown that the strength of the mortar is sufficient and meets the requirements of existing building ...

Parametric Stock Flow Modelling of Historical Building Typologies

Buildings, 2022
While the construction sector is a major consumer of new raw materials, it also contributes largely to waste generation. Therefore, improved estimates of demolition waste and the identification of components and materials for reuse or recycling are an ...

Compiled records of carbon isotopes in atmospheric CO₂ for historical simulations in CMIP6 [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2017
The isotopic composition of carbon (Δ14C and δ13C) in atmospheric CO2 and in oceanic and terrestrial carbon reservoirs is influenced by anthropogenic emissions and by natural carbon exchanges, which can respond to and drive changes in climate ...

Coastal flood: a composite method for past events characterisation providing insights in past, present and future hazards—joining historical, statistical and modelling approaches [PDF]

Natural Hazards, 2020
The characterisation of past coastal flood events is crucial for risk prevention. However, it is limited by the partial nature of historical information on flood events and the lack or limited quality of past hydro-meteorological data. In addition, coastal flood processes are complex, driven by many hydro-meteorological processes, making mechanisms and

The effects of the historical practice of residential redlining in the United States on recent temporal trends of air pollution near New York City schools

Environment International, 2022
Background: In the 1930's the United States (US) sponsored Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC) created maps that determined risk for mortgage lending based on the racial and ethnic composition of neighborhoods leading to disinvestment in “redlined” or ...
