Iowa Tornadoes: Motivators for Science Teaching
Iowa is located in the northern portion of the Midwestern tornado belt. Students\u27 natural interest in tornadoes and thunderstorms provide the alert teacher a ready-made introduction to science and the environment. The new paperback TORNADO -Accounts

A sequential system using magnesium‐impregnated rice husk biochar was evaluated through techno‐economic and life‐cycle assessment. The biochar first removes nitrate and phosphate from water and is then reused as a soil amendment, though high magnesium chloride costs constrain feasibility, highlighting the need for process optimization for large‐scale ...

Prediction Efficiency Skill Scores for Event Detection Analysis
Abstract Prediction efficiency (PE) is a skill score that compares the data‐model metric of mean square error against the variance of the observations (i.e., using the average of the observed values as the “reference model” in the general skill score formula).

Unsupervised Deep Representation Learning for Infrasound Phase Identification
Abstract Infrasound phase identification is challenging because atmospheric variability strongly influences signal propagation on short timescales that are not resolved by standard atmospheric models. While traditional approaches rely on propagation modeling and array‐derived parameters, recent work suggests that waveform structure itself encodes ...

Structural Property Losses from Tornadoes in Florida
Property losses from tornadoes in Florida are estimated by combining a one-km spatial grid of structural values from the Department of Revenue's 2014 cadastral database with historical tornado events since 1950.

ABSTRACT Floods are one of the leading causes of death from natural hazards in the United States (US). Better prediction of bankfull flow is needed in order to communicate potential flood risks and initiate response within forecasting frameworks. Traditional bankfull flow estimations are based on empirical equations whose accuracy is shown to be ...

Bayesian Decision Thresholds for Bushfire Warnings: Calibration and Robustness for Rare‐Event Risk
ABSTRACT Current bushfire warning systems communicate the probability of a warning given danger, but residents require the probability of danger given a warning. This misalignment, combined with the extreme rarity of catastrophic fires, often leads to the dangerous ‘wait and see’ behaviour.
