Macro-turbulent characteristcs of pressures in hydraulic jump formed downstream of a stepped spillway

open access: yesRBRH
Stilling basins are structures built at the base of the spillway to dissipate energy, by means of a hydraulic jump. Hydraulic jump is a turbulent phenomenon that causes large pressure fluctuation in the stilling basin bottom, and can damage the sink ...

Big Spring Basin Water-Quality Monitoring Program: Design and Implementation, July 1991 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The agricultural practices, hydrology, and water quality of the Big Spring basin have been studied since 1981. A network of precipitation stations, tile lines, streams, springs, and wells of various depths has been monitored during this period.

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

Resonance in Ploče Harbor (Adriatic Sea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, we extract and validate high-frequency oscillations in the port of Ploče, based on sea level data from one year (March 2002-March 2003) measured at a tide gauge in the harbor.

Uncertainty in hydrological signatures for gauged and ungauged catchments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Reliable information about hydrological behavior is needed for water‐resource management and scientific investigations. Hydrological signatures quantify catchment behavior as index values, and can be predicted for ungauged catchments using a ...

Material‐Based Intelligence: Autonomous Adaptation and Embodied Computation in Physical Substrates

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This perspective formulates a unifying framework for Material‐Based Intelligence (MBI), defining the physical requirements for materials to achieve embodied action, active memory and embodied information processing through intrinsic nonequilibrium dynamics. The design of intelligent materials often draws parallels with the complex adaptive behaviors of

Simulations of snow distribution and hydrology in a mountain basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We applied a version of the Regional Hydro‐Ecologic Simulation System (RHESSys) that implements snow redistribution, elevation partitioning, and wind‐driven sublimation to Loch Vale Watershed (LVWS), an alpine‐subalpine Rocky Mountain catchment where ...

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Dimensionless Equations for Hydraulic Jump Stilling Basins Downstream of Gabion Stepped Chutes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hydraulic Structures
Flows in stepped chutes built with gabions have been studied for about four decades and have found applications mainly in small dams and drainage systems.
