Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

The concept of a unified meteorological and radiological monitoring system based on hyperion technology

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2004
For the purpose of tracing the migration of radioactive materials in the environment it is essential to monitor meteorological and radiological parameters by a unified measurement system, because of the strong correlation of meteorological and radiological parameters.

Comparison of a multiple regresion model and a two-regime model of a vertical refraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Accuracy of the trigonometric measurement of elevations is affected by the systematic influence of a vertical refraction, which is caused by changes of meteorological parameters.

Warming summers limit reindeer grazing, weakening herbivory pressure in the mountain tundra

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Climate change is predicted to alter species interactions by exposing ecosystems to increasingly frequent and intense warm spells. In the mountain tundra, grazing by large herbivores, particularly reindeer, can limit shrub expansion and preserve Arctic plant diversity.

Thermochromic Radiative Cooling Coatings with Robust Superhydrophobicity for Energy‐Efficient Buildings

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A scalable, color‐adaptive radiative cooling coating is developed to enable dynamic spectral regulation via a reversible thermochromic transition at ~45 °C and a high solar reflectance of 91.7%. The coating achieves 4.44 °C outdoor sub‐ambient cooling while providing robust superhydrophobicity and environmental durability through its micro/nano ...

Non-invasive methods applied to the case of Municipal Solid Waste landfills (MSW): analysis of long-term data [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2008
This work presents and discusses a methodology for modeling the behavior of a landfill system in terms of biogas release to the atmosphere, relating this quantity to local meteorological parameters.

An Innovative Rural Heating System Utilizing Coupled Cascade Thermal Storage: A Performance Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Fig. 1. New rural heating system ABSTRACT This study presents a new rural heating system based on cascaded heat storage and air‐source heat pumps. Through a comparative analysis using the TRNSYS software between this system and the traditional solar‐assisted air‐source heat pump system, it was found that compared with the latter, the new system saves ...

Turbulence energetics in stably stratified geophysical flows: strong and weak mixing regimes

open access: yes, 2008
Traditionally, turbulence energetics is characterized by turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and modelled using solely the TKE budget equation. In stable stratification, TKE is generated by the velocity shear and expended through viscous dissipation and work ...
