Porous Media Primer for Physicists
During the 1980's physicists (and some geophysicists) devoted considerable efforts to understanding the physical (meaning here not hydraulic)...

Regular and Chaotic Motion in Hamiltonian Systems
All laws that describe the time evolution of a continuous system are given in the form of differential equations, ordinary (if the law involves one...

Multi-Step Motion Planning for Free-Climbing Robots
This paper studies non-gaited, multi-step motion planning, to enable limbed robots to free-climb vertical rock. The application of a multi-step...

Modeling Macromolecular Machines Using Rigid-Cluster Networks
Many macromolecules consist of domains which act more or less as rigid bodies during large conformational changes. These collective motions are...

A Simple Algorithm for Complete Motion Planning of Translating Polyhedral Robots
We present an algorithm for complete path planning for translating polyhedral robots in 3D. Instead of exactly computing an explicit representation...

Persistent Organic Pollutants in the Mediterranean Sea
Information on levels of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the different biotic (e.g. bivalves, fish, marine mammals and sea birds) and abiotic...
-
Circulation in the Mediterranean Sea
The overall functioning of the Mediterranean Sea, which transforms Atlantic Water (AW) into Mediterranean Waters (MWs), has been comprehended for...
-
Trace Metals in the Mediterranean Sea
The major aspects of the impact of trace metal fluxes on oceanic areas, their involvement in biogeochemical cycles and, for some of them, their...

Moisture availability and groundwater recharge paced by orbital forcing over the past 750,000 years in the southwestern USA
Quaternary climate changes are driven in part by variations in the distribution and strength of insolation due to orbital parameters. Continental...

Failure analysis in smart grid solar integration using an extended decision-making-based FMEA model under uncertain environment
Failures in the integration of solar energy into smart grids can have significant implications for energy reliability and environmental...
-
Atmosphere circulation patterns synchronize pan-Arctic glacier melt and permafrost thaw
The Arctic is changing rapidly due to the amplification of global temperature trends, causing profound impacts on the ice sheet in Greenland,...

Heterogeneous changes in global glacial lakes under coupled climate warming and glacier thinning
Global glacial lakes have expanded markedly in recent decades, accompanied by many catastrophic glacial lake outburst floods. However, our...

Long sediment-laden algal turf likely impairs coral recovery on Florida’s coral reefs
Coral reefs in the Florida Reef Tract have seen protracted loss of coral over the past several decades due to a variety of disturbances from marine...

A simple framework for likely climate projections applied to tropical width
The increasing use of climate projections in adaptation necessitates a consistent method for producing estimates of likely future conditions from...

Geotechnical characterisation and 2D soil cross-section model development in the Kashmir Basin
An integrated analysis of the surface geology with geotechnical parameters of soils within the Kashmir Basin has been presented in this study....

Effects of warm oceanographic anomalies on the foraging variability of northern elephant seals
Evaluation of stable carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) isotopes in marine organisms over time addresses how environmental variability (e.g., El...

Estimating S-wave amplitude for earthquake early warning in New Zealand: Leveraging the first 3 seconds of P-Wave
This study addresses the critical question of predicting the amplitude of S-waves during earthquakes in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), a highly...
-
Comparable foraging effort and habitat use between two geographically proximate tropical seabird colonies
Effective seabird conservation requires understanding their marine spatial ecology. Tracking can reveal details of their foraging ecology and habitat...

Forecasting short- and medium-term streamflow using stacked ensemble models and different meta-learners
Streamflow forecasting holds a pivotal role in the effective management of water resources, flood control, hydropower generation, agricultural...
