Hydrologic Whiplash in the Mississippi River Basin: Mechanisms and Projections
Abstract Volatility and unpredictability of hydroclimate systems stresses planning and risk management. Notably, the rapid transition between periods of high and low streamflow, known as hydrologic whiplash, is gaining attention worldwide. Yet the specific mechanisms driving hydrologic whiplash events, and how they differ from singular events, remain ...

Numerical simulation of oblique towing test
During the design of a ship, manoeuvrability performance should be measured in order to ensure course keeping and turning ability. In order to find out these characteristics, the numerical simulation of the Oblique Towing Test (OTT) has been developed ...

From External Governance to Energy Diplomacy: The European Pursuit of Green Hydrogen
Abstract Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the European Union (EU) and its Member States are faced with the double imperative of ensuring energy security whilst reaching decarbonisation goals. A number of authors have suggested that we are observing a geopolitical Commission that is shifting to more active ‘energy diplomacy’, as opposed to its
