Intermittent euxinia in the high-latitude James Ross Basin during the latest Cretaceous and earliest Paleocene
Abstract Seymour Island, in the James Ross Basin, Antarctica, contains a continuous succession of latest Cretaceous sediments deposited in a shallow marine environment at high latitude, making it an ideal place to study environmental changes prior...

Identifying spatial clusters of flood exposure to support decision making in risk management
Abstract A sound understanding of flood risk drivers (hazard, exposure and vulnerability) is essential for the effective and efficient implementation of risk-reduction strategies. In this paper, we focus on ‘exposure’ and study the influence of...

The optical measurement on the CVD silica film deposited on a fused quartz substrate
Abstract We develop a completed mathematical method to calculate the optical constants of the single layer thin film grown on a transparent substrate. The reflectance and transmittance were first measured individually from the substrate and...

Estimate of Soil Hydraulic Properties from Disc Infiltrometer Three-dimensional Infiltration Curve: Theoretical Analysis and Field Applicability
Abstract This paper describes a new method (NSQE) to estimate soil hydraulic properties (sorptivity, S, and hydraulic conductivity, K) from full-time cumulative infiltration curves. The technique relies on an inverse procedure involving the...

Influence of upstream solar wind on thermospheric flows at Jupiter
Abstract The coupling of Jupiter's magnetosphere and ionosphere plays a vital role in creating its auroral emissions. The strength of these emissions is dependent on the difference in speed of the rotational flows within Jupiter's high-latitude...

A review of solar cooling technologies for residential applications in Canada
Abstract In the last two decades, the demand for residential cooling has increased exponentially, creating a significant demand on the electrical grid during the summer months. Between 1990 and 2008, the total Canadian residential floor area that...

The Experimental Performance of an Unglazed PV-thermal Collector with a Fully Wetted Absorber
Abstract In general, there are two types of PVT collector, glazed and unglazed, depending on the existence of glass in front of the PV module. On the other hand, water-type PVT collectors can be classified into two types according to absorber type:...

Estimating Global Solar Radiation Using Artificial Neural Network and Climate Data in the South-western Region of Algeria
Abstract Global solar radiation (GSR) data are desirable for many areas of research and applications in various engineering fields. However, GSR is not as readily available as air temperature data. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are effective...

Temporal and Spatial Variations of the Solar Radiation Observed in Singapore
Abstract Meteorological phenomena, such as fast moving clouds, cause rapid changes in the terrestrial direct beam radiation. This introduces transients in both the temporal and spatial measurements of global horizontal radiation. These transients in ...
