Citizen-led water quality data collection: Experiences from the Santa River basin, Peru
(Copernicus PublicationsEGU General Assembly 2022, Vienna, 2022-05-23)<jats:p>&lt;p&gt;Water quality is a key consideration for both socio-economic and environmental sustainability (UN Sustainable Development Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation). However due to both natural and ... -
Exploring local perceptions of water quality in the upper Santa River, Peru
(Copernicus PublicationsEGU General Assembly 2022, Vienna, 2022-05-26)<jats:p>&lt;p&gt;Water quality is an integral part of water security, but water quality itself is complex, due to its multifaceted nature. Measuring the physico-chemical indicators for water quality (e.g. pH, ... -
Experimental study of dispersion and modulational instability of surface gravity waves on constant vorticity currents
(Copernicus Publications, 2020-05-04)We examine experimentally the dispersion and stability of weakly nonlinear waves on opposing linearly vertically sheared current profiles (with constant vorticity). Measurements are compared against predictions from the ... -
Development of Realistic Hazard Scenarios in a Malaysian Driving Simulator for Education
(Hong Kong Success Culture Press, 2024-01-01)In this paper, we present the development of a driving education prototype simulator, aiming to address dangerous traffic situations frequently encountered in daily life, particularly in urban areas like Klang Valley, ... -
Topography-based modulation of environmental factors as a mechanism for intertidal microhabitat formation: A basis for marine ecological design.
(ElsevierEngland, 2024-05)Topographic complexity is often considered to be closely associated with habitat complexity and niche diversity; however, complex topography per se does not imply habitat suitability. Rather, ecologically suitable habitats ... -
REMEDIATION TECHNIQUE FOR CADMIUM CONTAMINATED GROUNDWATER: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
(University of Anbar, 2023-06-01)Heavy metal pollution in soil has seriously affected the living environment of human beings Among all heavy metal pollution, cadmium (Cd) is one of the most difficult to migrate pollutants in soil. Therefore, this systematic ... -
Human affinity for rivers
(Wiley, 2022-08)Human civilization prospers along rivers worldwide. Here, we investigated human–river relations by revealing the linkage between water and habitability for human settlements, and socioeconomic and cultural development ... -
Parameter optimization of a floating two-buoy wave energy converter
(Elsevier BV, 2024-03-15)A geometric optimization methodology of a floating two-buoy wave energy converter is proposed based on a combination of the design of experiment method for sensitivity analysis of geometric parameters and hydrodynamic ... -
Japanese Marine Life A Practical Training Guide in Marine Biology
(Springer Nature, 2020-05-01)What was the first form of life? How did plants and animals evolve? How does life work? How do we share Earth with all the myriad organisms in the sea, land, and sky? A study of marine life may answer all these questions. ... -
Modelling the building-related photovoltaic power production potential in the light of the EU's Solar Rooftop Initiative
(Elsevier BV, 2024-04)Decarbonizing the building sector is key to meet the EU climate goals by 2050. Although the recent policies recognized the importance of on-site solar energy production in the energy transition, there are only a few ...
