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.

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
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

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
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.

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
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 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
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
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.
