WEATHER NOTE: A Rare Event of Intense Rainfall

open access: yesMonthly Weather Review, 1971
Abstract Data are presented for the most intense storm observed during a 3-yr recording period (1967–1969) on the Crawford Hill rain gage network at Holmdel, N.J. Point rain rates in excess of 270 mm hr−1 (10.6 in. hr−1) were observed. A total of about 280 million gallons of water fell in a 15-min interval over an area of 32.3 km2 (12.5 mi2).

Bionic Solar‐Powered Heavy Metal Trap for Eco‐Friendly Sludge Drying and Simultaneous Electricity Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein, we propose a solar‐powered heavy metal trap (SPHT) for sludge disposal. The indoor experiments demonstrated that the sludge water content decreased from 90 % to 31 %, coupled with a decrease in heavy metal content to 6 % at most. Furthermore, the designed SPHT generated an initial potential of 0.10 V, and monitoring this hydrovoltaic potential ...

Enhanced silicate weathering during glacial lowstands: new evidence from shelf sediments in the northern South China Sea

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances
The enhanced silicate weathering on tropical continental shelves has been linked to the exposure of unconsolidated sediments during glacial lowstands, contributing to atmospheric CO2 consumption.

Self‐Assembly Ordered Layered Gels for Thermochromic Smart Windows With Excellent Electromagnetic Shielding Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Metal‐ion‐coupled self‐assembled layered gels were prepared using a simple sol–gel method, successfully integrating electromagnetic shielding and thermochromic functions into the material. SCa‐1, which exhibits the best overall performance, achieves an electromagnetic shielding efficiency of up to 72.49 dB, while maintaining a visible light ...

Beyond the Ban—Shedding Light on Smallholders' Price Vulnerability in Indonesia's Palm Oil Industry

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Indonesian government imposed a palm oil export ban in April 2022 to address rising cooking oil prices. This study explores oil palm smallholders' vulnerability to the policy using descriptive statistics, Lasso, and post‐Lasso OLS regressions.

Spatial and temporal variations of Rb/Sr ratios of the bulk surface sediments in Lake Qinghai

open access: yesGeochemical Transactions, 2010
The Rb/Sr ratios of lake sediments have been suggested as indicators of weathering intensity by increasing work. However, the geochemistry of Rb/Sr ratios of lake sediments is variable between different lakes.

Exploring the Typhoon Intensity Forecasting through Integrating AI Weather Forecasting with Regional Numerical Weather Model

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Abstract Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have notably enhanced global weather forecasting, yet accurately predicting typhoon intensity remains challenging. This is largely due to constraints inherent in regression algorithm properties and inability of coarse resolution to capture the finer-scale weather processes. To address

Livestock Tango: U.S. and Latin America Dance Together, but Who Will Lead?

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the competitiveness between Latin American and U.S. livestock and meat sectors. We employ a computable general equilibrium modeling framework to evaluate two scenarios: coordinated improvements in Latin American productivity, transport efficiency, and market access (Scenario I), and the minimum productivity gains required ...
