Soil erosion responses to climate change in a tropical monsoon‐dominated river basin ‐ A geospatial perspective

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to intensify soil erosion in the Chalakkudy River Basin, with bare lands and steep uplands emerging as the most vulnerable hotspots under high‐emission scenarios. Forested areas showed greater resistance to soil erosion, highlighting the importance of targeted soil conservation for sustainable watershed management in ...

Ecological dams: Concept, transformation, and developmental pathways of dam projects under the framework of river ethics

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
This figure elaborates the scientific connotation and systematic construction path of ecological dams. Adopting a full‐cycle analysis framework centered on ecological impacts and benefits throughout the project lifecycle, it covers four key stages from planning to post‐completion, with core focuses on risk avoidance, impact control, ecological health ...

Numerical Investigation of Local Scour Around Bridge Pile-Group Foundations Under Steady Flows

open access: yesInfrastructures
Local scour around pile-group foundations is a predominant cause of hydraulic instability in bridge engineering. This study employs a fully coupled three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model to investigate local scour around a 2 × 2 inline pile

Local Scour at Straight Guide Banks in Plain Rivers

open access: yes
The local scour at abutments, elliptical and straight guide banks in plain rivers was studied. The flow pattern and the scour hole parameters at abutments, elliptical and straight guide banks are different.

Business Model and Sustainable Development Goals for an Innovative Agricultural Waste Management: Distributed Biogas Production

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological progress and population growth have increased global pork demand; leading to a rise of methane emission from pig farming, a key contributor to climate change. Anaerobic digestion offers a sustainable solution by converting manure into biogas.

Local Scour at Elliptical Guide Banks in Plain Rivers

open access: yes
The scour development in floods at abutments (Gjunsburgs & Neilands 2001, 2004, 2005, Gjunsburgs et al. 2004, 2005, 2006) and at elliptical guide banks is studied. The scour hole extents at abutments and guide banks are different. At the upstream head of

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing

The Legacies of Lockdown: Moral Logics of Exchange and Mistrust in Postpandemic China

open access: yesEconomic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When Shanghai entered an extended lockdown under China's Zero‐COVID policy in spring 2022, residents found themselves confined within their residential compounds, cut off from conventional supply chains, and dependent on improvised systems of local provisioning and state rationing. From the perspective of economic anthropology, such conditions

Local Scour at the Elliptical Guide Banks

open access: yes
Scour development in time at the elliptical guide banks during the floods was studied. The dimensions of the upper part of the elliptical guide banks, namely the turn and length, were calculated by the Latishenko method.

Effective Equilibrium Reaction Zone Modeling of Hydrogen Plasma Smelting Reduction: A Scenario Analysis

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
The study presents a dynamic zonal model for hydrogen plasma smelting reduction (HPSR) in direct current arc furnaces, predicting time‐dependent behavior of metal, slag, and off‐gas. The study considers various industrial scenarios to quantify energy demand, hydrogen utilization, degree of reduction, and other operational sensitivities.
