Floods are considered leading hydrometeorological disasters, which increasing in frequency, intensity and complexity with the evolution of climate change. Their associated impacts have detrimental often prolonged implications for humankind, especially communities heavily reliant on natural environment. The development implementation effective flood early warning systems (FEWSs) can serve to enh...

The singular values of a product M independent Ginibre matrices size N×N form determinantal point process. Near the soft edge, as both and N go to infinity in such way that M/N→α, α>0, scaling limit emerges. We consider gap probability for corresponding limiting process, namely, there are no particles interval (a,+∞). derive Tracy–Widom-like formula terms unique solution certain matrix Riemann–...

Putting health theories, research and knowledge into practice is a challenge referred to as the knowledge-toaction gap. Knowledge translation (KT), and its related concepts of knowledge mobilization, implementation science and research impact, emerged to mitigate this gap. While the social interaction view of KT has gained currency, scholars have not easily made a link between KT and the concep...

We study the Loschmidt echo F(t) for a class of dynamical systems showing critical chaos. Using a kicked rotor with singular potential as a prototype model, we found that the classical echo shows a gap (initial drop) 1-F_{g} , where F_{g} scales as F_{g}(alpha,,eta)=f_{cl}(chi_{cl} identical witheta;{3-alpha}/) ; alpha is the order of singularity of the potential, eta is the spread of the initi...
