Fractal Analysis of Power Grid Faults and Cross Correlation for the Faults and Meteorological Factors

IEEE Access, 2020
Power-grid faults pose a great threat to the economy and to social stability. In this paper, the detrended fluctuation analysis method is used to investigate the scaling properties of power grid faults and the correlation between faults and ...

Sub-debris melt rates on southern Inylchek Glacier, central Tian Shan [PDF]

, 2008
Melt rates of glacier surfaces are strongly influenced by the existence of a debris cover. Dependent on thickness and other physical parameters the debris layer can enhance or reduce ablation as compared to bare ice conditions.

SOLAR RADIATION AS A METEOROLOGICAL FACTOR

Monthly Weather Review, 1931
Abstract SYNOPSIS Variations in the earth's solar distance cause variations in the intensity of solar radiation at the outer limit of the earth's atmosphere of very nearly 3.5 per cent on each side of the mean, with the maximum early in January and the minimum early in July.

Experimental methods for wind tunnel studies of seed dispersal by wind

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The complexity and variability of natural environments make quantitative studies of seed wind dispersal challenging. Wind tunnel experiments offer a controlled alternative to investigate the mechanisms of seed wind dispersal. This review focuses on wind tunnels and the associated technologies used for studying seed wind dispersal, including ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

A Vine Copula Framework for Non-Stationarity Detection Between Precipitation and Meteorological Factors and Possible Driving Factors

Atmosphere
Increasing climate change leads to the variability of dependencies among meteorological factors. Currently, the investigation of the interdependence of meteorological variables primarily focuses on the bivariate relationships, such as precipitation and ...

Meteorological factors in Earth-satellite propagation [PDF]

Using the COMSTAR D/4 28.56 GHz beacon as a source, a differential gain experiment was performed by connecting a 5-meter paraboloidal antenna and a 0.6-meter paraboloidal antenna alternately to the same receiver.
