Empirical rainfall thresholds for mudflow events in an arid basin of the Peruvian coast
Frontiers in WaterMudflows, a highly destructive natural phenomenon, frequently occurs in arid regions due to the activation of basins by extreme climate events. In Peru, the Pacific coastal basin and steep regions is particularly vulnerable to these events, which have ...

A coupled hydrological and hydrodynamic modeling approach for estimating rainfall thresholds of debris-flow occurrence [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System SciencesRainfall-induced hydrological processes and surface-water flow hydrodynamics may play a key role in initiating debris flows. In this study, a new framework based on an integrated hydrological and hydrodynamic model is proposed to estimate the intensity ...

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an escalating global threat driven by antimicrobial use in aquaculture and livestock. Resistant pathogens and genes can spread across humans, animals, and the environment through interconnected ecosystems. Using a One Health approach, this review emphasizes antimicrobial stewardship, regulatory strengthening, enhanced ...
