Future Hydroclimatic Impacts on Africa: Beyond the Paris Agreement
Earth's Future, 2019 Projections of global warming in Africa are generally associated with increasing aridity and decreasing water availability. However, most freshwater assessments focus on single hydroclimatic indicators (e.g., runoff, precipitation, or aridity), lacking ...

The Regime Shifts Database: a framework for analyzing regime shifts in social-ecological systems
Ecology and Society, 2018 Regime shifts, i.e., large, persistent, and usually unexpected changes in ecosystems and social-ecological systems, can have major impacts on ecosystem services, and consequently, on human well-being.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The crystal structure of Borrelia burgdorferi nicotinamidase (PncA/BBE22) reveals the correct full‐length protein initiated from a non‐canonical AUU start codon. The structure validates previous biochemical findings and resolves a long‐standing annotation error, demonstrating that the truncated database sequence is structurally incompatible with the ...

Robustness-Driven Resilience Evaluation of Self-Adaptive Software Systems [PDF]
, 2015 An increasingly important requirement for certain classes of software-intensive systems is the ability to self-adapt their structure and behavior at run-time when reacting to changes that may occur to the system, its environment, or its goals.

Resilience: A new integrative approach to health and mental health research [PDF]
, 2008 We know from anecdote and research, science and art, that human resilience is a powerful, seemingly ubiquitous force. What is needed is a better understanding of the properties, variations, and applications of that concept to health and well-being.

Effects of random 3D upper crustal heterogeneity on long-period (≥ 1 s) ground-motion simulations
Earth, Planets and Space, 2018 The effects of the short-wavelength heterogeneity of the crustal structure on predicted ground motion at periods of 1 s and longer were investigated by conducting three-dimensional finite-difference simulations using a detailed realistic velocity model ...
