Abstract Coastal flood events are increasing in both frequency and magnitude with ongoing sea‐level rise. Here we present a new statistical approach to generate future daily maximum water level timeseries and associated annual and daily flood probabilities for Australia. Our method provides several improvements on existing projection methods, including

Abstract Small lunar impact craters, exhibiting diverse morphological characteristics, represent the most abundant geological features on the Moon's surface. These structures serve as crucial indicators for understanding regolith thickness distribution and surface modification processes.

Design of lunar base observatories [PDF]
Several recently suggested concepts for conducting astronomy from a lunar base are cited. Then, the process and sequence of events that will be required to design an observatory to be emplaced on the Moon are ...

Assessment of the Lunar Surface Layer and in Situ Materials to Sustain Construction-related Applications [PDF]
Present and future technologies to facilitate lunar composition and resource assessment with applications to lunar surface construction are presented. We are particularly interested in the construction activity associated with lunar-based astronomy.

We seek the best size estimates of the asteroid (21) Lutetia, the direction of its spin axis, and its bulk density, assuming its shape is well described by a smooth featureless triaxial ellipsoid, and to evaluate the deviations from this assumption ...

Characterization of lunar surface materials for use in construction [PDF]
The Workshop on the Concept of a Common Lunar Lander, which was held at the NASA Johnson Space Center on July 1 and 2, 1991, discussed potential payloads to be placed on the Moon by a common, generic, unmanned, vehicle beginning late in this decade.

Infrared astronomy from the Moon [PDF]
The Moon offers some remarkable opportunities for performing infrared astronomy. Although the transportation overhead can be expected to be very large compared with that for facilities in Earth orbit, certain aspects of the lunar environment should allow

The Significance Of The Erosion Of The Prohibition Against Metabasis To The Success And Legacy Of The Copernican Revolution [PDF]
Although one would not wish to classify Copernicus’ own intentions as belonging to the late-medieval and Renaissance tradition of nominalist philosophy, if we are to turn our consideration to what was responsible for the eventual success of the ...

Both the recently reported anomalous secular increase of the astronomical unit, of the order of a few cm yr^-1, and of the eccentricity of the lunar orbit e_ = (9+/-3) 10^-12 yr^-1 can be phenomenologically explained by postulating that the acceleration ...
