Lightning‐caused disturbance frequency and severity varies with topography in an Afromontane forest
The results indicate that lightning disturbance severity differs within and among sites, potentially mediated by differences in lightning tolerance among tree species, and provide preliminary support for the hypothesis that disturbance severity declines with disturbance frequency. Abstract Lightning is an important agent of tropical tree mortality, but

A new approach to the determination of the striking distance from the lightning channel photos [PDF]
The possible influence the stepped leader movement has on the value of the striking distance is studied. The numerical values of the striking distances are most frequently verified from the lightning channel photos.

Wildfires and Atopic Diseases: A Review
ABSTRACT Wildfire smoke is a major environmental health threat that has increased in frequency and severity in recent years. A hazardous component of wildfire smoke is particulate matter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5). There is evidence to suggest that exposure to wildfire PM2.5 may increase the risk of developing or exacerbating atopic diseases, such as asthma ...

ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

Lightning induced currents in aircraft wiring using low level injection techniques [PDF]
Various techniques were studied to predict the transient current induced into aircraft wiring bundles as a result of an aircraft lightning strike. A series of aircraft measurements were carried out together with a theoretical analysis using computer ...

Mitigating the seductive details effect by topic and irrelevance signals
Abstract Background Seductive details (interesting digressions in learning materials) are often integrated into learning units to make them more appealing to learners. However, studies indicate that this tends to overload students cognitively and impairs their learning performance. Aims The present study investigated whether these negative consequences
