Downscaling of Temperatures Over the Eastern Mediterranean for the 21st Century

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
We developed an analogue‐based statistical downscaling method, using a K‐nearest‐neighbour framework, to project daily maximum temperature (Tmax) and minimum temperature (Tmin) at 32 homogenized meteorological stations. Late twenty‐first‐century (2080–2100) temperature projections obtained using the method, show robust warming across all stations and ...

Spatiotemporal Characteristics and Synoptic Patterns of Dry‐Hot Winds (Sukhoviys) in Ukraine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyses dry‐hot winds, or sukhoviys, a recurrent phenomenon during the warm season across Ukraine that contributes to rapid moisture loss from soil and vegetation. The activity of sukhoviy events was assessed using the introduced Sukhoviy Station Index, accounting for their meteorological characteristics and frequency of occurrence.

Methodologies for Assessing Bridge Performance Under Seismic Action

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Transport Infrastructure
This paper analyses the seismic response of four continuous precast prestressed concrete girder bridges, with total lengths ranging from 80 m to 200 m, representative of Romanian road infrastructure.

Practical implementation of generalized pushover analysis for multimodal pushover analysis

open access: yes, 2015
A generalized pushover analysis procedure was previously developed for estimating the inelastic seismic response of structures under earthquake ground excitations. The procedure consists of applying different generalized force vectors separately for each

Shifting Patterns of Precipitation Extremes in the Southeast Atlantic Basin—Brazil: From Observed Trends to Future Projections

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Observed trends and EC‐Earth3 climate model projections demonstrate expressive changes in the Southeast Atlantic Hydrographic Basin, Brazil. Significant increases in rainfall intensity and dry spell duration in the present climate are followed by projected amplification of extreme precipitation under future warming, particularly under the SSP5‐8.5 ...

New Schmidt hammer exposure‐age dating calibrations for the Last Glacial Termination in NW Scotland: Development and application to undated Torridon Group sandstone surfaces in Wester Ross

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An understanding of the terrestrial extent, retreat dynamics and climate–glacier coupling of ice masses during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT, ~18–11 ka) is often limited by a fragmentary geomorphological record and is dependent on precise, accurate and robust dating frameworks.

Seismic modification factors for box girder bridges using a proposed pushover technique incorporating torsional vibration modes

open access: yesGrađevinar
This paper presents the results of numerical investigations on seismic modification factors (R) for algerian box girder bridges (BGBs) with both equal and unequal pier heights, using a proposed pushover technique that incorporates torsional vibration ...
