Cloud Radiative Feedback to the Large‐Scale Atmospheric Circulation Greatly Reduces Monsoon‐Season Wet Bias Over the Tibetan Plateau in Climate Modeling

Abstract Over‐estimation of summer precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is a well‐known and persistent problem in most climate models. This study demonstrates the impact of a Gaussian Probability Density Function cloud fraction schem...

Rapakivi K‐Feldspar Megacrysts in Monzogranitic Porphyry: Evidence for Magma Recharge and Mush Rejuvenation

Abstract The formation, storage, and evolution of granitic magmas are fundamental processes driving the growth of continental crust. While traditionally attributed to crystal fractionation in high‐melt fraction magma chambers, the model inv...

The second academic forum of the Committee on the Earthquake Hazard Chain, Seismological Society of China was held on 12 November 2022 in Beijing, China. The theme of this forum was theoretical research, technical application and populariza...

A multi-instrumental and modeling analysis of the ionospheric responses to the solar eclipse on 14 December 2020 over the Brazilian region

This work presents an analysis of the ionospheric responses to the solar eclipse that occurred on 14 December 2020 over the Brazilian sector. This event partially covers the south of Brazil, providing an excellent opportunity to study the m...

Fluctuation-Response Relation and modeling in systems with fast and slow dynamics

We show how a general formulation of the Fluctuation-Response Relation is able to describe in detail the connection between response properties to external perturbations and spontaneous fluctuations in systems with fast and slow variables. ...

Impact of Urbanization on Cloud Characteristics over Sofia, Bulgaria

Urban artificial surfaces and structures induce modifications in land–atmosphere interactions, affecting the exchange of energy, momentum, and substances. These modifications stimulate urban climate formation by altering the values and dyna...

Verification of the multi-layer SNOWPACK model with different water transport schemes

The widely used detailed SNOWPACK model has undergone constant development over the years. A notable recent extension is the introduction of a Richards equation (RE) solver as an alternative for the bucket-type approach for describing water...

Air distribution to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in the furnace of a boiler with tangential combustion scheme

Relevance. Determined by the importance of analyzing the combustion characteristics and factors affecting the emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the furnace chamber of pulverized coal-fired power boiler unit when installing tertiary air n...

Effects of match period and playing position on the individual and collective dynamics in professional soccer: a case study

This study aimed to compare the width, the length, the length per width ratio, and the stretch index between the first and the second halves in official soccer matches, and to compare the spatial exploration index between players from diffe...

Assessing Phase-Locked Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Treatment of Parkinson’s and Essential Tremor

Medico-Legal Applications of the Human Microbiome and Critical Issues Due to Environmental Transfer: A Review

Microbiome has recently seen an increase in its forensic applications. It could be employed to identify a suspect when DNA is not available; it can be used to establish postmortem interval (PMI). Furthermore, it could prove to be fundamenta...

Unraveling the formation mechanism of 3-methylindole from tryptophan in the glucose-mediated Maillard reaction: a combined ReaxFF MD, DFT, and experimental study

3-Methylindole is a concentration-dependent aroma compound, and its formation mechanism in the tryptophan-glucose Maillard reaction is crucial for flavor regulation but remains incompletely elucidated. Using gas chromatography-olfactometry-...

Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis Framework for Mapping Vegetation Physiognomic Types at Fine Scales in Neotropical Savannas

Regional maps of vegetation structure are necessary for delineating species habitats and for supporting conservation and ecological analyses. A systematic approach that can discriminate a wide range of meaningful and detailed vegetation cla...

Business Administration

The progress of several businesses was severely challenged through the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, with several businesses collapsing globally. Apart from the pandemic, the business posture and dynamics of yesteryear has significantly ...

Bifurcation and optimal control analysis of a delayed drinking model

Abstract Alcoholism is a social phenomenon that affects all social classes and is a chronic disorder that causes the person to drink uncontrollably, which can bring a series of social problems. With this motivation, a delayed drinking model...

Global Stability of Traveling Waves for a More General Nonlocal Reaction-Diffusion Equation

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the global stability of traveling front solutions with noncritical and critical speeds for a more general nonlocal reaction-diffusion equation with or without delay. Our analysis relies on the tec...

Threshold dynamics of a delayed predator–prey model with impulse via the basic reproduction number

Abstract In this paper, we study a delayed predator–prey model with impulse and, in particular, the existence of the predator-free periodic solution. We employ the approach and techniques coming from epidemiology and calculate the basic rep...

Gas Transport in Shale Nanopores with Miscible Zone

Based on the results of molecular dynamics simulation, in a gas-water miscible zone, the velocity profiles of the flowing water film do not increase monotonously but increase first and then decrease, which is due to the interaction between ...

Regularity results for a model in magnetohydrodynamics with imposed pressure

The magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) problem is most often studied in a framework where Dirichlet type boundary conditions on the velocity field is imposed. In this Note, we study the (MHD) system with pressure boundary condition, together with z...
