The Most Common Habitable Planets II -- Salty Oceans in Low Mass Habitable Planets and Global Climate Evolution [PDF]
, 2020 Global climate evolution models for habitable earthlike planets do not consider the effect of ocean salinity on land ice formation through the hydrological cycle. We consider two categories of such planets: planets with deep oceans, but intrinsically high salinities due to the weaker salt removal process by hydrothermal vents; and planets with shallow ...

Shrub expansion in maritime forest responding to sea level rise
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023 Expansion of shrubs has been observed in a number of biomes and in response to diverse global change drivers. Noting shrub expansion in coastal forests affected by sea level rise, we began to monitor shrub populations in a transgressing loblolly pine ...

Sensitivity of Dar Es Salaam coastal aquifer to climate change with regard to seawater intrusion and groundwater availability [PDF]
, 2016 This paper presents the initial results of three years of investigation activities, carried on in the Dar es Salaam coastal plain (Tanzania) by the Adapting to Climate Change in Coastal Dar es Salaam (ACC-DAR) project, a cofounded research project ...

Estimating the treatment effect of the juvenile stay-at-home order on SARS-CoV-2 infection spread in Saline County, Arkansas [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We investigate the treatment effect of the juvenile stay-at-home order (JSAHO) adopted in Saline County, Arkansas, from April 6 to May 7, in mitigating the growth of SARS-CoV-2 infection rates. To estimate the counterfactual control outcome for Saline County, we apply Difference-in-Differences and Synthetic Control design methodologies. Both approaches

Clustering global ocean profiles according to temperature-salinity structure [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 An unsupervised clustering using a Gaussian mixture model is applied to Argo profiles distributed over the entire ocean. We employ as the coordinate components in feature space the path signature, which is a central notion in rough path theory. This allows us to better identify the oceanic condition at each horizontal point with distinct clusters, than

Assessing the Long-Term Evolution of Abandoned Salinized Farmland via Temporal Remote Sensing Data
Remote Sensing, 2021 Salinization in arid or semiarid regions with water logging limits cropland yield, threatening food security. The highest level of farmland salinization, that is, abandoned salinized farmland, is a tradeoff between inadequate drainage facilities and ...
