This paper presents a robust cost-effective framework for assessment of coastal-fluvial flooding due to compound action multivariate dependent drivers. The methodology is an 8-step process that links statistical and hydrodynamic models determine probabilities multiple-driver flood events associated hazards. method involves individual combined extreme value analysis, dependencies interactions be...

Changing weather patterns, increasing frequency and intensity of natural hazards, rising sea levels associated with global climate change have the potential to threaten cultural heritage sites worldwide. This is especially case for maritime located in low-lying coastal delta regions Asia. Maritime can reflect both highly localized products based on coupling people environments historic footprin...

To clarify the role of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the regulation of the reproductive axis, these experiments evaluated the extent to which reproductive hormone secretions may be compromised in the absence of NPY expression. In NPY knockout (NPY-KO) and wild-type (WT) mice, hormone secretions were analyzed under conditions of basal release, following ovariectomy (OVX), in proestrus, after estrogen ...

Semidiurnal solar tides in the mid-latitude troposphere are investigated using harmonic analysis of 404 MHz radar profiler wind data obtained from a wide longitude zone in the U.S. The tides are apparent above a 1000-m-deep surface layer and increase in amplitude with height, attaining speeds of 0.5-0.7 rn/s at 5-7 km. Observed wind characteristics agree well with tidal characteristics obtained...

Tide-surge interaction (TSI) is a critical factor in assessing flooding shallow coastal systems, particularly estuaries and harbours. Non-linear interactions between tides surges can occur due to the water depth bed friction. Global investigations have been conducted examine TSI, but its occurrence impact on levels Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) not extensively studied. Water level observations from...

[1] Based on the perturbations of the trajectory of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter due to atmospheric drag, we estimate, using Precision Orbit Determination, the density of the Martian exosphere near 250 km altitude with much better temporal (and therefore spatial) resolution than previously possible with this method. Small longitudinal density variations are observed to be consistent over lon...
