Erosion protection at mining sites using a concrete-enhanced synthetic turf system [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Many mining sites are facing water erosion challenges due to changing weather patterns and more frequent extreme weather conditions. A concrete-reinforced engineered turf system has been developed for erosion protection and used in mining applications ...

Downscaling of ESA CCI soil moisture in Taihu Lake Basin: are wetness conditions and non-linearity important?

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2021
The coarse spatial resolutions of satellite-based soil moisture (SM) products restrict their applications at smaller spatial scales. In this study, the monthly European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative SM data (ESA CCI SM) from 2000 to 2016 was ...

Generality of Hydrologic Transport Limitation of Watershed Organic Carbon Flux Across Ecoregions of the United States

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Although the flux of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) through freshwaters is nearly equivalent to the net carbon uptake of all terrestrial ecosystems, uncertainty remains about how source processes (carbon production and location) and transport processes ...

Financialization at a watershed in the USA [PDF]

open access: yesCompetition & Change, 2018
In the period following the Great Recession of 2007–2009 the financialization of the US economy reached a watershed characterized by stagnant financial profits, falling proportions of financial sector and mortgage debt, and rising proportion of public debt. The main macroeconomic indicators of financialization in the USA show structural breaks that can

Watershed Colonialism and Popular Geographies of North American Rivers

open access: yesOpen Rivers, 2017
Rivers have long been the subject and vehicle for compelling stories. As physical features that tie natural and human history, rivers in narratives have hidden as much as they’ve revealed by naturalizing cultural practices and human values...

Evaluation of Hierarchical Watersheds [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2018
This paper aims to understand the practical features of hierarchies of morphological segmentations, namely the quasi-flat zones hierarchy and watershed hierarchies, and to evaluate their potential in the context of natural image analysis. We propose a novel evaluation framework for the hierarchies of partitions designed to capture various aspects of ...
