Evaluation of different geostatistical methods based on GIS for predicting and zoning salinity invasion of aquifers of West Azarbaijan [PDF]

محیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2016
In coastal aquifers, infiltration and internal extending seawater is the most common reason for the increased salinity. Locating adjacent to the hypersaline lake and a sharp drop in groundwater in the region has exposed West Azerbaijan Province to ...

Attention‐Based Spatial–Temporal Model for the Entire Indoor Space Temperature Estimation

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
This study proposes a novel attention‐based spatial–temporal model for indoor temperature estimation, which integrates positional encoding and an attention mechanism with a fully connected neural network. By jointly capturing temporal dynamics and spatial correlations, the model enables high‐resolution estimation of temperature fields across the entire

Bioaccessibility of Metal(loid)s From Anthropogenic Contamination in Dry Riverbed Sediments in the Cartagena–La Unión Mining District (Murcia, SE Spain): Implications for Human Health Risk Assessment

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed the contamination levels, bioaccessibility, and potential health risks of As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn in sediments from three dry riverbeds (El Beal‐EB, Las Matildes‐LM, and Ponce‐PN) impacted by historical mining activities in the Cartagena‐La Unión Mining District.

Selection of native Atlantic Forest species for urban greening under air pollution stress

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) is widely used to identify pollution‐tolerant species for afforestation; however, it was not designed to account for traits such as pollutant accumulation or biomass storage, which are also relevant for evaluating environmental resilience.

Integrating Multiple Approaches to Reveal the Spatiotemporal Pattern of Soil Erosion in Mollisol Watershed

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10355-10370, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although numerous prediction methods have been developed, scientific estimation of the spatiotemporal pattern of soil erosion at the watershed scale remains challenging. In this study, fallout radionuclides of 210Pbex and 137Cs were used to estimate average annual soil erosion and deposition in a Mollisol watershed in Northeast China ...

How the Physical and Chemical Properties Affect the Heavy Metal Content in Surface Water in Different Types of Peatlands

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9254-9265, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Only ~3% of the global land surface is covered by peatlands, yet more than one‐third of global soil carbon is stored in these ecosystems and contaminant filtration can be provided. The extent to which peat humification (Fibric–Hemic–Sapric) is linked to dissolved heavy metals in peatland surface waters has remained poorly quantified at a ...

The De Martonne aridity index in Calabria (Southern Italy)

Journal of Maps, 2019
In this paper, the annual rainfall and temperature values, measured in the period 1951-2016 in a region of southern Italy (Calabria), have been spatially interpolated using deterministic and geostatistical techniques in an R environment.

Thermo‐Mechanical Topology Optimization: An Immersed FEM Level‐Set‐Based Approach

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 15, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a multi‐physics framework for topology optimization using an immersed level set‐finite element model. The work extends the capabilities of a recently developed immersed level‐set method to thermo‐mechanical problems, including coupling and material‐dependent properties.

Probabilistic quality assurance of biopsy DVH thresholds in HDR prostate brachytherapy under localization uncertainty

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background MR‐US guided biopsies support biologic correlation in HDR prostate brachytherapy, but steep dose gradients and millimeter‐scale localization uncertainty limit the validity of nominal biopsy doses. Purpose To assess how localization uncertainty affects the robustness of biopsy DVH dose thresholds in HDR prostate brachytherapy and to ...
