Investigation on the physical mechanism of cavity percentage dependent shear strength for rock joints considering the real contact joint surface

open access: yesRock Mechanics Bulletin, 2023
To explain the effect of joint roughness on joint peak shear strength (JPSS) and investigate the effect of different contact states of joint surface on JPSS, we try to clarify the physical mechanism of the effect of joint cavity percentage (JCP) on JPSS ...

Application and Evaluation of a NOAA GFS-Driven Air Quality Model Using CMAQv5.4 and High-Resolution Emissions: FIREX-AQ 2019. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Geophys Res Atmos
Abstract The National Air Quality Forecast Capability (NAQFC) provides numerical forecasting guidance of air quality up to 72 hr ahead over the United States. In this study, we evaluate the changes in its prediction skills by updating the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system from version 5.3.1 to 5.4 and utilizing a high‐resolution 1‐

High Resolution 3D Mapping of Hurricane Flooding from Moderate-Resolution Operational Satellites

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Floods are often associated with hurricanes making landfall. When tropical cyclones/hurricanes make landfall, they are usually accompanied by heavy rainfall and storm surges that inundate coastal areas. The worst natural disaster in the United States, in

Characterizing Particulate Matter Impacts of Smoke From 2022 to 2023 Agricultural Burning in South Florida. [PDF]

open access: yesGeohealth
Abstract Smoke from agricultural fires is a potentially important source of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the US. Sugarcane is burned in Florida to facilitate the harvesting process, with the majority of these fires occurring in the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA), where there is only one regulatory air quality monitor.

JPSS-1 VIIRS pre-launch radiometric performance [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2015
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on-board the first Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) completed its sensor level testing on December 2014. The JPSS-1 (J1) mission is scheduled to launch in December 2016, and will be very similar to the Suomi-National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) mission.
