The EMOTIF database is a collection of more than 170 000 highly specific and sensitive protein sequence motifs representing conserved biochemical properties and biological functions. These protein motifs are derived from 7697 sequence alignments in the BLOCKS+ database (released on June 23, 2000) and all 8244 protein sequence alignments in the PRINTS database (version 27.0) using the emotif-mak...

Introduction: Estimations of peak discharge rates and durations of floods will play critical roles in discussions about megafloods and their relevance to the history of water on Earth and Mars. However, the movement of the floodwater is not easily modeled in an exact form because it strongly correlates to turbulent forces. In addition to that, actual floods progressively inundate complicated ro...

River discharge is crucial to water resources development and ecological protection. However, in some arid areas of northwest China, it still difficult measure accurately. In this study, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery has been used estimate river at two sections the upper reaches Shiyang eastern part Qilian Mountains based on Manning formula. The estimated discharges those are 1.16 m3/s ...

Remotely sensing data have advantages in filling spatiotemporal gaps of situ observation networks, showing potential application for monitoring floods data-sparse regions. By using the water level retrievals Jason-2/3 altimetry satellites, this study estimates discharge at a 10-day timescale virtual station (VS) 012 and 077 across midstream Yangtze River Basin during 2009–2016 based on develope...
