Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1115-1141, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Finer Measurement Scales for Induced Hydrophobicity Using the Water Droplet Penetration Test

open access: yesGeotechnics
The Water Droplet Penetration Test (WDPT) is commonly used in most soil water repellency (SWR) research and is particularly prominent in field studies after wildfire events.

Sorptive Deformation of Porous Sorbents

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2019
Deformations of granulated recuperative activated carbon AR-V (produced in granulated form from coal dust (coals mixture) and adhesion agents by steam treatment at the temperature of 1100 — 1200K) upon carbon tetrachloride adsorption has been studied. To solve this problem a dilatometer was used.

Spatial patterns of wetting characteristics in grassland sandy soil

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2016
In grasslands where organic and inorganic resources are alternating at scales of individual plants, the transient character is given to certain wetting properties of soil, which then become highly variable both in space and in time.

Estimation of Soil Hydraulic Properties Curve through Beerkan Infiltration Experiment Algorithms

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2019
Nowadays, the Beerkan computational algorithms (BESTslope and BESTsteday) are known as the suitable indirect methods for estimating soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) and sorptivity (S), as well as the scale parameter (hg) in van Genuchten soil ...

Fission Product Sorptivity in Graphite

open access: yes, 2015
Both adsorption and absorption (sorption) of fission product (FP) gases on/into graphite are issues of interest in very high temperature reactors (VHTRs). In the original proposal, we proposed to use packed beds of graphite particles to measure sorption at a variety of temperatures and to use an electrodynamic balance (EDB) to measure sorption onto ...
