From approximately 11,200 to 8,000 years ago, the Great Plains of North America were populated by small Paleoindian hunting groups with well developed weaponry and the expertise to successfully hunt large mammals, especially mammoths and bison. Mammoths became extinct on the Plains by 11,000 years ago, and, although paleoecological conditions were worsening, their demise may have been hastened ...

A general kinematic wave model for flood propagation is presented in the form of a scalar conservation law. The corresponding flux function is convex or nearly convex for regular cross-sections of the river. In the presence of pronounced irregularities, however, convexity may fail. Qualitative consequences of the shape of the flux function for typical irregularities are discussed, particularly ...

Severe hail is a common event in the Southern Plains of the United States. However, few studies have been conducted to quantitatively answer the question: how much hail occurs at any given location? Given the coverage of WSR-88D radars over the Southern Plains and recent technological advancements including hail detection algorithms, a compilation of severe hail swaths was completed for the per...
