Ubiquity and Causes of Soil Water Preferential Flow Across 17 Ecoregions
Abstract Preferential flow (PF) in soil causes the rapid transport of water, nutrients, and contaminants into the subsurface, influencing groundwater recharge and streamflow. Data scarcity has hindered the quantification of PF occurrence and the identification of its drivers across diverse ecoregions.

Constructing and representing a knowledge graph(KG) for Positive Energy Districts (PEDs)
In recent years, knowledge graphs(KGs) have become essential tools for visualizing concepts and retrieving contextual information. However, constructing KGs for new and specialized domains like Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) presents unique challenges, particularly when dealing with unstructured texts and ambiguous concepts from academic articles ...

Exploring environmental urban policies: a methodological proposal to build a composite indicator measuring urban environmental virtuosity [PDF]
Synthesizing the complex phenomenon of “environment” into a single indicator could leads to a loss of information, which inhibit his use as a reference for the resolution of several issues such as, for example, the allocation of resources.
