Estimation of Local Scour Dimension below Siphon Spillway with the Ski-jump Bucket Energy Dissipater Using the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH)

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2018
The investigation of local scour below hydraulic structures is so complex that makes it difficult to establish a general model to provide an accurate estimation for the local scour dimension.

Reusing health records from farm animal practices at scale: A potential complementary method of surveillance

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Disease in primary care frequently represents a surveillance blind spot, particularly for diseases affecting farm animals. Methods Electronic health records (EHRs) were collected from four farm animal veterinary practices in Wales (February 2024‒January 2025) as part of a pilot study.

Scour Development at Elliptical Guide Banks during Multiple Floods

open access: yes
The scour development at bridge abutments and elliptical guide banks during multiple floods is studied. At the upstream head of the elliptical guide bank, a streamline concentration, a local increase in velocity, vortex structures, and the development of

Assessing the Burden of Operatively Managed Extremity Fractures in Malawi: A Tale of Two Tertiary Hospitals

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) account for 90% of all deaths from injury globally, yet health systems remain poorly equipped to manage the escalating trauma burden. This study highlights a critical and escalating operative trauma burden in Malawi, driven largely by road traffic injuries, particularly motorcycle taxis.

Local Scour Development at Engineering Structures during Multiple Floods

open access: yes
Using the differential equation of equilibrium of the bed sediment movement in clear water, a method for calculating the scour development in time at engineering structures in river flow during floods has been elaborated.

Wildlife temporal behaviors in response to human activity changes during and following COVID‐19 park closures

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
With urbanization reducing the amount of available wildlife habitat, and outdoor recreation increasing the human activity within wildlife habitats, it is important to understand the effects of human activity on animal behavior. This study examined how the reduction in human presence in urban parks in Gainesville, Florida, affected the temporal ...

Riverbed Layering Impact on Scour at the Abutments

open access: yes
The damage of the engineering structures caused by scour leads to considerable economical and envi-ronmental losses. The local flow modification and its changes in time during the floods, as well as local geological conditions, as riverbed layering, type

Human‐Caused Leopard Deaths in Sri Lanka Are Concentrated in Central Highlands' Estate Mosaics: Evidence From 17 Years of Mortality Records 人为因素导致斯里兰卡豹死亡事件集中于中部高地种植园镶嵌景观:来自 17 年死亡记录的证据

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Human‐caused leopard deaths in Sri Lanka averaged 9.65 ± 4.5 records year−1 over 17 years (2008–2024; n = 164), with records highly clustered in the central highland mosaic ecosystem. Mortality was dominated by adult males and driven primarily by snaring in plantation landscapes, and indicating an increase approximately 0.7–0.8 deaths per year.

Scour, Local and Critical Velocities at the Abutments on Plain Rivers

open access: yes
Local flow modification near engineering structures such as – local velocity, flow separation, circulation, vortex structures, and increased turbulence, leads to local scour near foundations.

Local scour at submerged weirs

open access: yes, 2018
Weirs are river training structures conventionally used for upstream water level and grade control. The flow over weirs can be fully submerged during high flow rate, inducing local scour both upstream and downstream of the submerged weir.
