In this study the Building Energy Parameterization Scheme (BEP) (Martilli et al. ) was implemented in the regional Climate Local Model (CLM) which is the climate version of the German Weather Service numerical weather forecast model COSMO (COnsortium for Small-scaleMOdeling) formerly known as “Local Model” (Steppeler et al. ). Currently in the standard CLM cities are parameterized bymea...

• A unique perspective of CO 2 phyco-capture is given in a critical manner. Microalgae strains are excellent candidates for atmospheric reduction cities. Possible technologies bio-capture urban spaces discussed with suitable examples. Circular economy and cost-effective aspects important indicators to meet sustainability. Climate change shift the average weather patterns, which could stand long...

Today’s smartphone users face a security dilemma: many apps they install operate on privacy-sensitive data, although they might originate from developers whose trustworthiness is hard to judge. Researchers have proposed more and more sophisticated static and dynamic analysis tools as an aid to assess the behavior of such applications. Those tools, however, are only as good as the privacy polici...

In order to efficiently deal with location dependent messages in multi-sink wireless sensor networks (WSNs), it is key that the network informs sinks what geographical area is covered by which sink. The sinks are then able to efficiently route messages which are only valid in particular regions of the deployment. In our previous work (see the 5th and 6th cited documents), we proposed a combined...

Cities in the contemporary world are experiencing shifts local climatic conditions that primarily linked to rapid urban growth, carbon emissions, and environmental degradation. In present study, land surface temperature (LST) peri-urban regions of city Ranchi was estimated correlated with use/land cover (LULC) using temporal LANDSAT satellite images from 2000 2014 on a bi-annual basis. The stud...

In spatially heterogeneous landscapes, some habitats may be persistent sources, providing immigrants to sustain populations in unfavorable sink habitats (where extinction is inevitable without immigration). Recent theoretical and empirical studies of source-sink systems demonstrate that temporally variable local growth rates in sinks can substantially increase average abundance of a persisting ...

Every de Sitter vacuum can transition to every other de Sitter vacuum despite any obstacle, despite intervening anti-de Sitter sinks, despite not being connected by an instanton. Eternal inflation populates the whole landscape.
