Prediction of flood quantiles at ungauged catchments for the contiguous USA using Artificial Neural Networks

Hydrology Research, 2022
In this study, we utilise Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models to estimate the 100- and 1500-year return levels for around 900,000 ungauged catchments in the contiguous USA.

HYGIENIC ASSESSMENT OF THE IMPACT OF OFF-GRID HEAT SOURCES ON AMBIENT AIR QUALITY AND THE FORMATION OF PUBLIC HEALTH RISKS

Siberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture, 2023
Background. The study is relevant due to a significant number (more than 74 thousand) of autonomous heat sources (AHS) in the Russian Federation, especially in its eastern regions. Such sources use solid fuels (coal). AHS, along with other heat and power
