A framework for the analysis of the influence of rainfall spatial organization and basin morphology on flood response [PDF]

, 2013
This work describes the derivation of a set of statistics, termed spatial moments of catchment rainfall, that quantify the dependence between rainfall spatial organization, basin morphology and runoff response.

Hydraulic function of medullary bundles in a tropical root climber

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Medullary bundles, which are vascular bundles in the pith, have evolved multiple times. However, their functional significance remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated how medullary bundles are involved in the vascular architecture and hydraulic function in a tropical root climber, Adelobotrys scandens (Melastomataceae) to ...

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Giovanni Antonio Scopoli's De Hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina (1761): Mercury Mining, Mercurialism, and Preventive Reasoning in Eighteenth‐Century Occupational Medicine

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Giovanni Antonio Scopoli (1723–1788), a physician‐naturalist of the Enlightenment, is primarily remembered for his contributions to botany and entomology. Less attention has been paid to his medical work De hydrargyro Idriensi Tentamina physico‐chymico‐medica (1761), written during his fifteen years of service as physician at the mercury mines

Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...

Engineering infrastructure for water resources development : impact of design rainfall pattern on safety considerations

, 2015
Safety of the Water Resources Development infrastructure is fully assured only if they are tested for the design flood event of appropriate design return period. The literature review highlighted the design rainfall pattern as a critical factor for the

Separation and Valorization of Chlorine From Tail Gas Streams

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A commercially available ion exchange resin was found to adsorb chlorine gas selectively in the presence of other gases reversibly forming the corresponding trichloride species [IEx][Cl3]. This discovery was telescoped to an efficient process for the recycling and valorization of chlorine from industrially abundant tail gas streams to base chemicals ...

Effect of Rainfall Intensity and Stone Content on the Instability of Quaternary Deposits

工程科学与技术, 2019
The geological processes, including earthquake, engineering excavation, weathering, erosion and transport caused a large number of loose accumulation bodies. The stone content in these loose accumulation bodies were different, and the instability induced
