Abstract Groundwater is a central component of the Earth system. However, our understanding of how it is dynamically interlinked with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and anthroposphere rema...

In the Pampas region of Argentina agriculture is dominated by intensive no-till (NT) soybean cropping which produce negative consequences on soil quality. A group of farmers started to use the Good Agricultural Practices...

Abstract Gate and earth-rock dam systems are the preferred dam types for river sections under deep overburden conditions, low head, and high flow rates. This study established a three-dimensional finite element model inc...

Abstract Although earthquakes are known to recur in approximately the same areas, their recurrence patterns and final sizes can vary considerably. To understand this variability, we analyzed a prominent sequence of repea...

Exoplanet surveys have shown that systems with multiple low-mass planets on compact orbits are common. Except for a few cases, however, the masses of these planets are generally unknown. At the very end of the main seque...

Abstract We investigate the skill of the fully initialized decadal forecasting system EC‐Earth3 in re‐forecasting the semiannual occurrence frequencies of synoptic‐scale atmospheric circulation types in the extratr...

Increased focus on secure communications has created a growing interest in national and regional satellite systems. An elliptic medium earth orbit satellite system for Nordic/Arctic areas is proposed and investigated. Th...

Abstract Volcano-tectonic earthquakes are shear faulting that releases elastic strain energy within the shallow crust beneath volcanoes. While their focal mechanisms are widely used to infer stress states, they have rare...

One of the central characteristics of the Kallawaya culture is the richest tradition of ritual healings applied by the male and female ritual Kallawaya healers. There are very different modes of significance and meaning ...

Plot-based monitoring has yielded much information on the taxonomic diversity and carbon (C) storage in tropical lowland forests of the Amazon basin. This has resulted in an improved understanding of the relationship bet...

Abstract Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations enhance greenhouse warming and drive changes to plant physiology, leading to innumerable climate impacts. This study explores the impacts of plant responses on hydrological ...

De acordo com os princípios da Agenda 21, o principal documento resultante da unced-92, a sociedade sustentável do futuro deverá mostrar um desenvolvimento econômico equilibrado, no mundo todo, em harmonia com os sis...

Marine phytoplankton are believed to account for more than 45% of photosynthetic net primary production on Earth, and hence are at the base of marine food webs and have an enormous impact on the entire Earth system. Thei...

Abstract Glacier retreat transforms landscapes in polar and mountainous regions. Yet, the topography of the emerging terrain remains poorly known. Here, we present a physically consistent, global map of the ice-covered t...

SIRGAS, Sistema de Referencia Geocéntrico para las Américas, nació como un proyecto colaborativo de diferentes países latinoamericanos, con el objetivo de establecer un único sistema de referencia con los mayores es...

The fifth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) will produce a state-of-the- art multimodel dataset designed to advance our knowledge of climate variability and climate change. Researchers worldwide ...
