SIMULATION OF SCOURING AROUND A VERTICAL CYLINDER DUE TO TSUNAMI [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2017 * Corresponding author radianta@ugm.ac.id ABSTRACT Local scour due to tsunami is damaging especially on shallow foundation. Although relatively in a short duration, tsunami attack may scour material around buildings that led to destruction. A number of

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Protected areas represent complex social‐ecological systems that require governance and management approaches that valorise and enhance positive relationships between people and nature. This study analyses the alignment between social and ecological systems to detect the social‐ecological fit of projects focused on biodiversity conservation ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Amid increasing urbanisation and biodiversity decline, ‘effective stewardship’ of urban green space (UGS) is a complex but critical nature‐based solution for long‐term environmental, social and economic gain. Combining stewardship and sense‐of‐place frameworks with European nature‐based solutions guidance, we investigate which social and ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Sotol (Dasylirion spp.) is a resilient desert plant that sustains ecosystems, cultures and livelihoods in Chihuahua Desert. Our review highlights its nutritional properties, traditional uses and potential new applications in food, pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and water remediation. By synthesizing evidence across disciplines, we show how sotol can

Evaluating anisotropy‐based Monin–Obukhov similarity theory over canopies and complex terrain
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study shows that an anisotropy‐based generalization of Monin–Obukhov surface‐layer scaling (SC23) applies readily across a wide range of atmospheric conditions with variable terrain, canopies, and land‐cover complexity. This work focuses on the scaling of velocity variances for 7 years at the 47 sites in the National Ecological Observation Network
