Synthetic Aperture Radar as a Tool for Tornado Classification in Forested Areas

Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing
Canada’s tornado climatology has historically been challenging to accurately assess. Many Canadian tornadoes are currently rated on the Enhanced Fujita scale using treefall as a damage indicator, though this approach may occasionally underestimate ...

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

Statistical Characteristics of Dabie‐Vortex‐Associated Tornadogenesis During an 18‐Year Period (2006–2023)

Atmospheric Science Letters
The Dabie vortex (DBV), a mesoscale system frequently generating severe weather in the Yangtze River Basin, exhibits spatial overlap with tornado‐prone regions, yet its tornadic potential remains unexplored.

Cost–benefit analysis of screening programme for diabetic retinopathy in Bulgaria

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Late‐diagnosed diabetic retinopathy (DR) is difficult and expensive to treat. Screening programmes can identify the disease early and reduce the costs of its future treatment. This study aims to analyse the cost–benefit of screening programmes for DR.

An Empirical Relationship among Characteristics of Severe Convective Storms, Their Cloud-Top Properties and Environmental Parameters in Northern Eurasia

Atmosphere, 2023
Severe convective storms that produce tornadoes and straight-line winds usually develop under particular environmental conditions and have specific signatures on the cloud tops associated with intense updrafts.

Population pharmacokinetics and exposure–response analysis of durvalumab in patients with resectable stage II to IIIB (N2) NSCLC in the phase III AEGEAN study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims In the AEGEAN study, perioperative durvalumab plus platinum‐based neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with resectable stage II to IIIB (N2) non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) demonstrated a favourable benefit–risk profile. This study evaluated population pharmacokinetics (PopPK) and exposure–response (ER) relationships of durvalumab in patients ...

Navigating Storms: Examining Vultures’ Behavior in Response to Extreme Weather Events

Diversity, 2023
Extreme weather events such as hurricanes and tornadoes have been found to change the spatial and temporal abundance of raptors by decreasing survival and forcing the emigration of individuals, or by increasing habitat heterogeneity and facilitating ...

Most Say Disaster Spending Does Not Require Offsetting Cuts: A Pew Research Center/Washington Post Survey [PDF]

, 2013
As Oklahoma recovers from severe damage caused by last week's tornado, a majority of Americans (59%) say federal spending in response to natural disasters is emergency aid that does not need to be offset by cuts to other programs, while 29% say such ...
