The Importance of Accounting for Stakeholder Values, Power Relationships and Language in Constructing Relevant and Trustworthy Climate Information

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Facing increasing risks from climate change, governments at all levels have started to mainstream the use of climate information. It has been widely acknowledged that the inclusion of stakeholder knowledge and needs, for example, in a co‐design and co‐production process, is important for producing user‐relevant information.

EFFECTIVE SEDIMENT CONTROL IN A RESERVOIR [PDF]

, 2014
Sedimentation in a reservoir cannot be avoided. The average rate of sedimentation on the storage volume reduction of a reservoir in the world is about 1 % per year (Yoon,1992), meanwhile, the storage volume reduction in several reservoir in Indonesia ...

Small Ponds as Carbon Emission and Burial Hotspots in Lowland Agricultural Landscape

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Clarifying carbon (C) cycling in small ponds is vital for understanding C transport in lowland agricultural landscape. Quantifying C flux is crucial for learning C cycling, but is challenging due to its complex cycling and significant impacts from intensive human activities.

A Multipoint Spatiotemporal Prediction Model for Concrete Dams Integrating Hybrid Clustering and Adaptive Decomposition‐Optimization Mechanisms

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The displacement evolution of concrete dams serves as a key indicator of their structural safety. Establishing an accurate and reliable model for predicting displacement is essential for effective dam monitoring. Nevertheless, current multi‐point forecasting approaches often overlook the interdependencies among deformation drivers and lack robust ...

The Hydraulics of Stepped Chutes and Spillways [PDF]

, 2002
The stepped channel design have been used for more than 3,500 years (chapter 2). A significant number of dams were built with overflow stepped spillways during the 19th century and early 20th century, before the design technique became outdated with the ...

Aortic, mitral and tricuspid valvular dysplasia in a 7‐month‐old colt

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 36, Issue 11, Page e288-e294, November 2024.
Summary A 7‐month‐old Warmblood cross colt was presented for the assessment of a laceration of the right hind pastern of 4‐days duration. At presentation, the colt was in poor body condition and had a rough, dull coat. Cardiac auscultation revealed a grade 5/6 pansystolic murmur on the left side and grade 4/6 continuous murmur on the left and right ...
