Comparison of Soil-Freezing and Soil-Water Characteristic Curves of Two Canadian Soils
The drying–wetting and freezing–thawing cycles significantly influence the soil pore water in the vadose zone in permafrost and seasonally frozen regions.

Abstract Plant‐available water and adequate soil aeration are two fundamental requirements for successful plant growth. These prerequisites have generally been assessed independently in relation to plant growth, with limited focus on their complementary and competing behavior in a soil–water matrix.

Abstract Capillary barrier is an engineered structure composed of a fine‐grained layer overlying a coarse‐grained layer. However, traditional two‐layer configurations of fine and coarse grains exhibit suboptimal water storage performance in semi‐humid to humid regions.

The particle-size distribution (PSD) is the key information required by several models for prediction of the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC). The performance of these models has been extensively investigated in the literature; however, limited ...

Abstract Placing moisture store‐release (SR) soil covers over hypersaline tailings has been a promising way to rehabilitate closed tailings storage facilities. However, the performance of SR covers in limiting evaporation‐driven salt migration remains less investigated. A one‐dimensional numerical model that couples the transport of liquid water, water

Abstract Frost heave and thaw settlement driven by freeze‐thaw cycles in seasonally frozen soils of cold regions are strongly related to water migration. A key parameter controlling water migration in frozen soils is the hydraulic conductivity, which predominantly governs the movement of water under thermal and hydraulic gradients.

Software cloud counting (SWCC) in NGC 224 distance estimation,I
About 41770 dark clouds were identified through a C++ program [ software cloud counting, SWCC] developed to study the dust content in NGC 224 (M31). The clouds were sorted out according to their opacities and then their areas.

AN ANALYSIS OF ENLISTED SWCC AND SEAL OFFICER RELATIONSHIPS WITHIN NAVAL SPECIAL WARFARE [PDF]
This thesis analyzes various organizational design theories and intrinsic motivational models to evaluate the feasibility of creating an unrestricted line SWCC officer program.

The soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is the basis for describing seepage, strength, and constitutive model of unsaturated soil. The existing SWCC models do not work accurately for evaluating loess, because they do not consider the pore deformation ...

Geotechnical Stability Analysis of Dune Face Erosion by Waves
Abstract Predicting the extent of wave‐driven dune erosion under wave impact and elevated water levels will improve our ability to safeguard the livelihood of ecosystems, communities and infrastructure living behind sandy beaches worldwide. However, the geophysical processes leading to time‐dependent dune face failures are still not fully understood ...
