Previous studies indicate that post-compacted changes in moisture and suction significantly influence small strain response, often this is not routinely monitored during operation. Thus, assessing the impacts of seasonal variation on performance critical for gauging geomechanical behaviour compacted soils underlying typical transport infrastructure.

Abstract Summer rainfall trends in Southeastern South America (SE-SA) have received attention recent decades because of their importance for climate impacts. More than one driving mechanism has been identified the trends, some which opposing effects. It is still not clear how much each contributed to observed or combined influence will affect future changes. Here we address second question and ...
