Towards a geoid consistent vertical datum in South Africa

, 2022
Traditionally, vertical datums have been realised through mean sea level (MSL) data, at one or more tide gauge station(s), followed by a precise levelling procedure to establish a network of benchmarks.

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

Optimizing Strategies for Non‐Invasive Prospection of Settlements in the Intertidal Zone: A Case Study From the Centre of the Drowned Medieval Village of Tolsende (Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medieval and early modern drowned villages in the intertidal zone of the Scheldt estuary (the Netherlands) constitute intriguing yet largely understudied components of north‐western Europe's underwater cultural heritage. Despite their high archaeological potential as time capsules of past settlement landscapes, research has remained limited ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Characterising City Scale Heat Climatology for Australian Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Australian cities peaks at night, intensifying under dry conditions, clear skies, increased solar radiation, and low wind speeds. Long‐term observations show that nighttime temperatures in major cities have warmed faster than their rural surroundings and future climate projections fail to capture this disparity ...

Vertical gravity gradient modeling and its influence on gravity datum transfer

Geodesy and Geodynamics
In the past, the free-air gradient −308.6 × 10−8 s−2 was used as the vertical gravity gradient of the measuring point in gravity data processing, which resulted in inaccurate instrument height corrections.

Evaluation of W0 in Canada using tide gauges and GOCE gravity field models

Journal of Geodetic Science, 2012
The existing Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1928 (CGVD28) does not meet the needs of the modern user in terms of accuracy and accessibility.

Discriminating Chemoresistant and Chemosensitive Tubo‐Ovarian High‐Grade Serous Carcinoma Cells With Raman Microscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Confocal Raman microscopy combined with multivariate analysis distinguishes cisplatin‐resistant and ‐sensitive tubo‐ovarian high‐grade serous carcinoma cell lines. ABSTRACT Chemoresistance is a major obstacle to effective cancer treatment, particularly in tubo‐ovarian high‐grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), the most lethal gynaecological malignancy ...

Evaluation of the geopotential value W0LVD of China

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2017
Estimation of the zero-height geopotential value W0LVD for the CVD (China Vertical Datum) plays a fundamental role in the connection of traditional height reference systems into a global height system.
