Numerical modelling in support of a conceptual model for groundwater flow and geochemical evolution in the southern Outaouais Region, Quebec, Canada [PDF]

, 2017
A two-dimensional vertical-section numerical model for groundwater flow and transport using age, tritium and chloride was used to help validate a conceptual model of geochemical evolution within a representative regional-scale hydrogeological system in ...

How digitisation of herbaria reveals the botanical legacy of the First World War

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Digitisation of herbarium collections is bringing greater understanding to bear on the complexity of narratives relating to the First World War and its aftermath – scientific and societal. Plant collecting during the First World War was more widespread than previously understood, contributed to the psychological well‐being of those involved and ...

Revisiting Temporal Coupled-Mode Theory in Ultrafast Physics: An Ab-initio Approach [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
We employ an ab initio Maxwellian approach using quasinormal-mode theory to derive an “exact” Maxwell evolution (EME) equation for resonator dynamics. The new differential equation bears resemblance to the classical one found in coupled-mode-theory (CMT);

Digitisation of herbarium specimens to the benefit of research: An African perspective focusing on South Africa and Western Indian Ocean Island states

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical exploration, discovery and conservation rely heavily on access to herbarium collections. Recently, digital access to label information, including georeferenced locality data, and images of herbarium specimens available online have greatly increased usage of herbarium specimen data.

Coping With Changing Skill Requirements: Does Disaffirmation Versus Affirmation Affect Auditors' Reliance on AI‐Supported Advice From Specialists? Composer avec l'évolution des aptitudes requises : la dévalorisation (par rapport à l'affirmation) influence‐t‐elle le recours des auditeurs aux conseils de spécialistes qui s'appuient sur l'IA ?

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The digital evolution in auditing has triggered a rapid shift in auditors' required skill sets, with audit firms heavily investing in and extolling advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. However, this strong emphasis on newly required digital skills can lead many experienced auditors, who perceive these ...

Collaborating Across Boundaries: Toward an Integrated Cyber Risk Assessment by Internal Auditors and Cybersecurity Professionals Collaboration interprofessionnelle : vers une évaluation intégrée des cyberrisques par les auditeurs internes et les spécialistes en cybersécurité

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although cyber risk is widely recognized as a critical organizational threat, how firms configure internal roles and practices to address it remains poorly understood. This study offers insights into that question. In practice, two professional roles share the job of cyber risk assessment and assurance: cybersecurity specialists, who focus on ...
