Abstract: n a recent article, Li et al. examined changes in the summer-season location of the western ridge of the North Atlantic subtropical high from 1948 to 2007 because there has been an increase in interannual summer rainfall ...

Abstract: Past climatological research has not quantitatively defined the synoptic-scale circulation deviations responsible for anomalous summer-season precipitation totals in the southeastern United States. Therefore, the objectives ...

Abstract: Through modification of the planetary boundary layer, urbanization has the potential to have a significant impact on precipitation totals locally. Using daily summer-season precipitation data at 30 stations from 1953 to ...

Abstract: This paper presents an original methodology for the instantaneous in-cylinder pressure waveform reconstruction in a spark-ignited internal combustion engine. The methodology is based on the existence ...

Abstract: This paper presents simple elastic analysis of uniformly loaded composite steel‐concrete beams simply supported, but with an additional spring having arbitrary stiffness to restrain in‐plane rotation at each end that can ...

Abstract: Tube thoracostomy (TT) insertion can serve as a life-saving adjunct for thoracic trauma. Unfortunately, suboptimal positioning using the open, standard of care technique is associated with complications resulting in impaired ...

Abstract: entral equatorial Africa is deficient in long-term, ground-based measurements of rainfall; therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of three high-resolution, satellite-based rainfall products in western ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to identify middle-troposphere circulation patterns associated with high ozone concentrations during June?August of 2000?07 in the Atlanta, Georgia, metropolitan statistical area (MSA), which ...
