Abstract: A method was recently proposed for evaluating the impact of a perturbation, such as air pollution or urbanization, on the precipitation at a location by calculating the ratio between the precipitation at the perturbed ...

Abstract: Nonlinear, dispersive perturbations are applied to a single layer, geostrophic, density current of zero potential vorticity, which flows along a vertical wall (coast) and is bounded by a free streamline in the seaward ...

Abstract: A pump‐and‐treat system of extraction wells is modeled to create a hydraulic capture zone to immobilize a plume of contaminants in a confined aquifer with uncertain hydraulic transmissivity. The stochastic approach is used ...

Abstract: The linear instability of circular quasigeostrophic vortices with horizontal cross sections of angular velocity identical to those that fit the observations of submesoscale eddies in the ocean is investigated analytically ...

Abstract: The isometric forces and moments generated at the hand segment by thirteen of the forearm muscles were measured on three test subjects. Small bipolar surface electrodes were used to activate ...
