Changes in Indian Summer Monsoon Using Neodymium (Nd) Isotopes in the Andaman Sea During the Last 24,000 yearsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 241-253 - 2019
Harunur Rashid, Alexandra T. Gourlan, Brittany Marche, Kaylyn Sheppard, Nabil Khélifi
Dramatic changes from a cold and dry last glacial to a warm and wet Holocene period intensified the Indian summer monsoon (ISM), resulting in vigorous hydrology and increased terrestrial erosion. Here we present seawater neodymium (Nd) data (expressed in εNd) from Andaman Sea sediments to assess past changes in the ISM and the related impact of Irrawaddy–Salween and Sittoung (ISS) river discharge ...... hiện toàn bộ
Monthly, Seasonal, and Annual Variations of Precipitation and Runoff Over West and Central Africa Using Remote Sensing and Climate ReanalysisSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 67-82 - 2022
Eric Efon, Rinelle Djiondo Ngongang, Cyrille Meukaleuni, Brice B. S. Wandjie, Sinclaire Zebaze, Andre Lenouo, Mohammad Valipour
Precipitation and runoff variability over West and Central Africa is the major challenge of water resource management, which drives a range of socio-economic issues. Storm water runoff poses serious environmental problems and public health issues in these regions. We use descriptive statistics in order to analyze monthly, seasonal, and annual runoff and precipitation using the Global Precipitation...... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial Pattern and Land Surface Features Associated with Cloud-to-Ground Lightning in Bangladesh: An Exploratory StudySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 437-451 - 2022

Severe weather events such as lightning appear to be a significant threat to humans and property in South Asia, an area known for intense convective activity directly related to the tropical climate of these areas. The current study was conducted in Bangladesh and examined the association between cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning and ground surface properties, with the aim of improving existing knowl...... hiện toàn bộ
Geotechnical and Geochemical Assessments of Shales in Anambra Basin, Southeastern Nigeria, as Landfill LinersSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 1-9 - 2017
R. B. Adesina, M. N. Tijani
The use of landfills as containment for municipal solid waste management has received wide acceptance the world over. Its development in countries like Nigeria is constrained by high cost and scarcity of synthetic liners in the local markets. Exploration of the abundant locally available clay deposits in the country’s sedimentary Basins will prove economical, provided it satisfies the standard spe...... hiện toàn bộ
Landscape Position Effects on Magnetic Properties of Soils in the Agricultural Land Pechenigy, UkraineSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 739-750 - 2021
Oleksandr Menshov, Oleksandr Kruglov, Sergiy Vyzhva, Lidiia Horoshkova, Paulo Pereira, Tatiana Pastushenko, Turgay Dindaroglu
Among the greatest challenges facing Ukraine as well as other countries with significant agrarian production are sustainable land management, precision farming, soil erosion, and fertility identification. Soil magnetic susceptibility (MS, χ), as well as other magnetic mineralogical parameters, can be a useful indicator of cropland degradation, soil erosion, and pollution assessment. The objective ...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluating Flood Susceptibility in the Brahmaputra River Basin: An Insight into Asia's Eastern Himalayan Floodplains Using Machine Learning and Multi-Criteria Decision-MakingSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 7 - Trang 733-760 - 2023

Floods represent a significant threat to human life, property, and agriculture, especially in low-lying floodplains. This study assesses flood susceptibility in the Brahmaputra River basin, which spans China, India, Bhutan, and Bangladesh—an area notorious for frequent flooding due to the saturation of river water intake capacity. We developed and evaluated several innovative models for predicting...... hiện toàn bộ
