Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Seepage Characteristics and Critical Scale in Gas-Bearing Coal Pores Under Water Injection: A Multifractal Approach

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
To investigate the flow characteristics of movable water in coal under the influence of micro-nano pore fractures with multiple fractal structures, this study employed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and multifractal theory to analyze gas–water seepage ...

User‐Relevant Climate Indices and Associated Uncertainties From Transient Convection‐Permitting Climate Model Projections

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A transient ensemble of convection‐permitting climate simulations is used to compute bias‐corrected user‐relevant climate indices for Germany under recent and future climate conditions, both considering high spatial resolution and uncertainty estimations. For high temperature indices, a clear increase is observed, for example, for hot days and tropical

Design and construction aspects of a geocomposite drainage system in a dam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The drainage system of a dam depends mainly of the available granular material founded near the dam site and it’s quantities. In some cases, the use of natural granular materials can reach an impracticable cost considering the transportation and the ...

Guidelines for replacement of a balloon gastrostomy tube in infants and pediatric patients: The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Balloon gastrostomy tube (BGT) placements are increasing due to their ability to facilitate care of medically complex children. Management for routine and nonroutine tube replacement, including verification of proper replacement, lacks standardization, varying widely among different institutions and settings.

Vertically inserted geotextile used for strengthening levees against internal erosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The effectiveness of a vertical inserted geotextile against internal erosion, in particular backward erosion, has been investigated. Some small- and medium-scale tests were performed as well as a field-scale test and compared with test series without any

A twofold development and demise of pine stands in the Netherlands during the Allerød interstadial: two hypotheses to explain a link to climate change recorded in Greenland ice

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The second half of the Allerød interstadial in the Netherlands is characterised by pine forest. Excavated trunks of 165 pine trees at Leusden‐Den Treek in the central Netherlands (LETR16) were dated by dendrochronology and radiocarbon. Two chronologically separated pine forest phases occurred during relatively warm periods as recorded in ...

In situ loading of a pore network model for quantitative characterization and visualization of gas seepage in coal rocks

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering
The flow characteristics of coalbed methane (CBM) are influenced by the coal rock fracture network, which serves as the primary gas transport channel. This has a significant effect on the permeability performance of coal reservoirs.

Anaerobic oxidation of methane in the Concepcion Methane Seep Area, Chilean continental margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Within subduction zones of active continental margins, large amounts of methane can be mobilized by dewatering processes and transported to the seafloor along migration pathways.
