The diurnal cycle of precipitation and its associated land-sea breeze circulation over coastal northern Australia are investigated using surface wind speed enthalpy (latent sensible heat) fluxes from the Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System. Composite results during austral summer 2018–2022 show that propagates westward Cape York Peninsula into Gulf Carpentaria. strongly coupled, with max...

Mesoscale models using a non-local K-scheme for parameterixation of boundary-layer processes require an estimate of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) height z, at all times. In this paper, two-dimensional sea-breeze experiments are carried out to evaluate three different formulations for the advective contribution in the zi prognostic equation of Deardorff (1974). Poor representation of the th...

The paper contains a preliminary study of the sea breeze at Thumba (08°32' N, 76° 52'E) based on observations 392 days, spread over period three years (1963-1966).
 
 Analysis hourly wind observation reveals that northeasterly or northerly land is replaced by westerly southwesterly before mid-day during October to May it also seen November April are favoured most Thumba. Southerly set...

despite the numerous advantages of large dams, there is still a deep suspicion about the real,long-term benefits and costs of their construction. land use change on a vast scale, displacement of a largepopulation of indigenous people, loss of biodiversity and production of greenhouse gas emissions, as well as environmental, socioeconomic and cultural consequences resulting therefrom, indicate c...

Fresh Breeze is a highly parallel architecture currently under development, which strives to provide high performance scientific computing with simple programmability. The architecture provides for multithreaded determinate execution with a write-once shared memory system. In particular, Fresh Breeze data structures must be constructed from directed acyclic graphs of immutable fixed-size chunks...

Breeze et al. report that living in a deprived area is associated with poor quality of life in a large population-based sample of older adults living in the UK. 1 Their paper adds to a large body of work reporting associations between area socioeconomic characteristics or area deprivation and a variety of health outcomes. 2 The focus on the elderly population is especially interesting because, ...

This study analyzes the characteristics of land use/land cover change in Jordan’s Irbid governorate, 1984–2018, and predicts future land use/land cover for 2030 and 2050 using a cellular automata-Markov model. The results inform planners and decision makers of past and current spatial dynamics of land use/land cover change and predicted urban expansion, for a better understanding and successful...
