Using Geographic Information System for Trees Assessment at Public Park
Abstract Trees are major capital assets in urban areas. Just as streets, sidewalks and recreational facilities are a part of a community's infrastructure, so are publicly owned trees. Thus they require care and maintenance the same as other public...

Research on Corrosion of Lead Printing Letters from the Museum Plantin-Moretus, Antwerp
Abstract A number of lead alloyed printing letters in the collection of the Museum Plantin-Moretus show corrosion problems. A research project was set up to tackle the reasons for the corrosion issues. This first phase of the project was designed to ...

Characterization of seismic events during the 2009 eruption of Redoubt Volcano, Alaska
Abstract Seismic events were automatically detected and characterized throughout the 2009 eruption of Redoubt Volcano, Alaska on a single short period station located 3km from the volcanic crater. A total of 126,789 individual events were identified ...

Polynomial Chaos Quadrature-based Minimum Variance Approach for Source Parameters Estimation
Abstract We present a polynomial chaos based minimum variance formulation to solve inverse problems. The utility of the proposed approach is evaluated by considering the ash transport problem arising due to volcanic eruption. Volcanic ash advisory...

Open-source tools for dynamical analysis of Liley's mean-field cortex model
Abstract Mean-field models of the mammalian cortex treat this part of the brain as a two-dimensional excitable medium. The electrical potentials, generated by the excitatory and inhibitory neuron populations, are described by nonlinear, coupled,...

Increasing Evidence for Chaotic Dynamics in the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere System: A Motivation for Future Research
Abstract This paper reviews the background and current development of nonlinear dynamics and chaos as it applies to the soil- plant-atmosphere system (SPAS). We build the case that such processes are likely common in the SPAS and offer the...

Palaeogeographic reconstruction of Minchin palaeolake system, South America: The influence of astronomical forcing
Abstract Current palaeoclimatic reconstructions for the Río de la Plata region during the latest Pleistocene (30,000–10,000 yr BP) propose dry conditions, with rainfall at the Last Glacial Maximum amounting to one-third of today's precipitation....

Contrasting Climate Ensembles: A Model-based Visualization Approach for Analyzing Extreme Events
Abstract The use of increasingly sophisticated means to simulate and observe natural phenomena has led to the production of larger and more complex data. As the size and complexity of this data increases, the task of data analysis becomes more...
