Analysis of Radiative Transfer Characteristics of a Spherical Continuous-Spectrum Light Source Under Rainfall Conditions

open access: yesPhotonics
The current research on light transmission under rainfall conditions primarily focuses on monochromatic converging light sources, and the related conclusions cannot be directly applied to spherical continuous-spectrum light sources (SCLSs).

Experimental study of rainfall intensity on silty sand slope [PDF]

open access: yes
Malaysia, located in the tropical region, is blessed with an abundance of rainfall, particularly during the monsoon season. Previous studies have shown that major landslide occurrences in Malaysia are primarily caused by frequent and prolonged rainfall ...

When the River Runs Low: Heterogeneous Impacts of Transportation Disruptions on Local Grain Basis

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A substantial share of U.S. soybean and corn exports from the Midwest moves by barge along the Mississippi River system to export terminals in the Louisiana Gulf. Transportation costs between Midwestern grain elevators and export terminals create a wedge between prices at these locations, and shocks to these costs are partially passed on to ...

Experimental and numerical analysis on the responses of slope under rainfall

open access: yes, 2012
Rainfall is an important factor to trigger the slope failure such as landslides and debris flows. First, the relationship between rainfall duration with the initiation of debris flow and rainfall intensity was mainly studied by the series tests in a box ...

Reconfiguring Fresh Produce Supply Chains in Response to Drought Risk: Evidence From the U.S. Broccoli Market

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Livelihood Diversification as an Adaptation Strategy to Climate Change and Household Food Security of Livestock Holders in Pakistan

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rural farm households continue to face significant risks from climate change, resulting in many of them diversifying their livelihood sources into other income‐generating activities to increase their incomes and improve food and nutrition security. In this study, we examine the drivers and impact of farm households' participation in livelihood

Reliability of rainfall kinetic power–intensity relationships

open access: yes, 2017
The rainfall erosivity plays a fundamental role in water soil erosion processes and it can be expressed by its kinetic power. At first in this paper, the raindrop-size distributions measured, in the period June 2006–March 2014, by an optical disdrometer ...
