How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Rebound Effects in Circular Manufacturing: Overview of Potential Rebound Mechanisms Activated by Circular Strategies Across Key Business Processes

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is increasingly adopted by the manufacturing industry to decouple economic growth from environmental impacts by optimizing resource use and minimizing waste generation. Nevertheless, circular manufacturing often triggers systemic responses that diminish or offset their potential environmental gains, resulting in the so ...

Heightened hurricane surge risk in northwest Florida revealed from climatological-hydrodynamic modeling and paleorecord reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Historical tropical cyclone (TC) and storm surge records are often too limited to quantify the risk to local populations. Paleohurricane sediment records uncover long-term TC activity, but interpreting these records can be difficult and can introduce ...

Post‐Shaping Over‐Impregnation: A Facile Strategy for Pt‐KL Catalysts With Ultrahigh Metal Dispersion and Enhanced Aromatization Performance

open access: yesCarbon and Hydrogen, EarlyView.
A scalable post‐shaping strategy achieves precise Pt localization within KL zeolite, where optimized spatial distribution minimizes diffusion barriers to deliver superior n‐hexane aromatization activity, selectivity, and stability. ABSTRACT The precise localization of metal clusters within zeolite frameworks is critical for the aromatization catalysis.

Storm Surge Clusters, Multi-Peak Storms and Their Effect on the Performance of the Maeslant Storm Surge Barrier (The Netherlands)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Storm surge barriers are crucial for the flood protection of the Netherlands and other deltas. In the Netherlands, the reliability of flood defenses is typically assessed based on extreme water levels and wave height statistics.

Deep uncertainties in sea-level rise and storm surge projections: Implications for coastal flood risk management

open access: yes, 2017
Sea-levels are rising in many areas around the world, posing risks to coastal communities and infrastructures. Strategies for managing these flood risks present decision challenges that require a combination of geophysical, economic, and infrastructure ...

COMPUTATION OF STORM SURGE

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1970
From knowledge of wind resistance coefficients measured over the sea, it is possible to compute the shear stress of a wind field on its surface Where a body of water is relatively shallow, such a shear stress will transport water to the downwind end and so create a high water level or surge Graphs are presented for ready application of the relevant ...

Three-Dimensional Storm Surge Computations [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1974
Summary The method for three-dimensional storm surge computation proposed by Heaps is modified by removing the bottom frictional stress from the vertical eigenfunction expansion. The stress is applied externally on each vertical column of fluid. Calculations on a simplified model show that the technique does not alter the response of the sea from ...

Key Challenges for Commercializing Perovskite–Silicon Tandem Solar Cells

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
This review discusses the scientific and technological challenges in advancing perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells (PSTSCs) from lab‐scale to commercial viability, focusing on long‐term stability, scalability, and economic feasibility. Key issues include intrinsic and extrinsic degradation factors, installation conditions, environmental impacts, and ...

Trend of landfalling tropical cyclones in the East China Sea and their storm surge response [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
In recent years, the influence of global tropical cyclones (TCs) has a tendency to expand towards the polar direction, and the proportion of high-intensity TCs has also increased greatly.
