Characteristics of Turbulence Intermittency, Fine Structure, and Flux Correction in the Taklimakan Desert
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Use of Remotely Sensed Actual Evapotranspiration to Improve Rainfall–Runoff Modeling in Southeast Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper explores the use of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), mounted on the polar-orbiting Terra satellite, to determine leaf area index (LAI), and use actual evapotranspiration estimated using ...
Can the Earth–Moon Distance Influence the Accuracy of Lunar Irradiance with the Plane-Parallel Assumption in Atmospheric Radiative Transfer at Night?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Development of a Bridge Weigh-in-Motion System Based on Long-Gauge Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Monitoring the weight of vehicles is essential for policymakers to maintain the condition of bridges. In the group of methods for weighing vehicles, bridge weigh-in-motion (B-WIM) systems are among the most prominent and ...
A Method for Estimating Surface Albedo and Its Components for Partial Plastic Mulched Croplands
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Future Changes in Floods and Water Availability across China: Linkage with Changing Climate and Uncertainties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uture changes in floods and water availability across China under representative concentration pathway 2.6 (RCP2.6) and RCP8.5 are studied by analyzing discharge simulations from the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison ...
Study of Life Prediction and Damage Mechanism for Modified 9Cr 1Mo Steel Under Creep Fatigue Interaction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Creepfatigue interaction is a principal cause of failures of many engineering components under high temperature and cyclic loading. In this work, stress controlled creepfatigue interaction tests are carried out for modified ...
Failure Probability of Transverse Surface Settlement Induced by EPB Shield Tunneling in Clayey Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper compiles a database consisting of 16 tunnel excavation projects in clayey soils using the earth pressure balance (EPB) tunneling method. Statistical analysis of the data is performed and the probability distributions ...
Application of a Macroscale Hydrologic Model to Estimate Streamflow across Southeast Australia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eliable predictions of water availability and streamflow characteristics, and the impact of climate and land use change on water availability, are central to water resources planning and management. This paper assesses the ...
Visualization Research on Low-Temperature Ignition and Combustion Characteristics of Diesel/Gasoline Blends Under Cold-Start Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although engines fueled with diesel/gasoline blends show excellent combustion and emission performance, its low-temperature flame development characteristics under cold-start conditions remain to be further verified. To ...
