Impact of urbanization on rainfall-runoff processes: case study in the Liangshui River Basin in Beijing, China [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2016 China is undergoing rapid urbanization during the past decades. For example, the proportion of urban population in Beijing has increased from 57.6 % in 1980 to 86.3 % in 2013.

Nonlinear variation of bedload thickness with fluid flow rate in laminar shearing flow [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The movement of subaqueous sediment in laminar shearing flow is numerically investigated by the coupled lattice Boltzmann and discrete element methods. First, the numerical method is validated by comparing the phase diagram proposed by Ouriemi et al. ({\it J. Fluid Mech}., vol. 636, 2009, pp. 321-336).

Loess Plateau storage of Northeastern Tibetan Plateau-derived Yellow River sediment
Nature Communications, 2015 Marine accumulations of terrigenous sediment are widely assumed to accurately record climatic- and tectonic-controlled mountain denudation and play an important role in understanding late Cenozoic mountain uplift and global cooling.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...

Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

The Natural Sediment Regime in Rivers: Broadening the Foundation for Ecosystem Management
, 2015 Water and sediment inputs are fundamental drivers of river ecosystems, but river management tends to emphasize flow regime at the expense of sediment regime. In an effort to frame a more inclusive paradigm for river management, we discuss sediment inputs,

Assessment of dam trapping efficiency from water residence time: Application to fluvial sediment transport in the Adour, Dordogne, and Garonne River basins (France) [PDF]
, 2001 Dam-trapping efficiency can be estimated by using the hydraulic residence time. On the regional scale, the global impact of several dams can be assessed by taking into account the spatial organization of dams along the river network.
