A comparison of missing value imputation methods applied to daily precipitation in a semi-arid and a humid region of Mexico
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2023)
[Abstract:] Climatological data with unreliable or missing values is an important area of research, and multiple methods are available to fill in missing data and evaluate data quality. Our study aims to compare the ...
Hydrostatic, strike-slip and normal stress true triaxial hydrofracturing testing of Blanco Mera Granite: breakdown pressure and tensile strength assessment
(Springer, 2023)
[Abstract:] We have designed and built a versatile testing device to perform hydraulic fracturing experiments under true triaxial conditions. The device, based on a stiff biaxial frame that can be installed in a servocontrolled ...
Influence of sediment characteristics on long-term hydrology and water quality behaviour during the clogging process of a permeable asphalt
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract:] Sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS) are common solution to address flow discharges, runoff volumes and pollutant concentrations caused by urban expansion and climate change trend. Among them, permeable ...
Integrated Approach to Assess Resonance Between Basin Eigenmodes and Moored Ship Motions With Wavelet Transform Analysis and Proposal of Operational Thresholds
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract] Waves with periods between 25 s and some minutes can amplify the motions of moored ships, which may result in terminal downtimes and compromise safety. The purpose of this work is twofold: (i) studying infragravity ...
A decision-making tool for port operations based on downtime risk and met-ocean conditions including infragravity wave forecast
(MDPI, 2023)
[Abstract:] Port downtime leads to economic losses and reductions in safety levels. This problem is generally assessed in terms of uni-variable thresholds, despite its multidimensional nature. The aim of the present study ...
Análisis integral del lavado y arrastre de sólidos en suspensión en cuencas urbanas utilizando un simulador de lluvia a escala real
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
[Resumen:] Ante la falta de datos experimentales precisos para el desarrollo y validación de modelos de lavado y transporte de sedimentos
en la superficie de cuencas urbanas, en este estudio se presenta una serie de ensayos ...
Estimation of flood-exposed population in data-scarce regions combining satellite imagery and high resolution hydrological-hydraulic modelling: A case study in the Licungo basin (Mozambique)
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract:] Study Region
Licungo basin (Mozambique)
Study Focus
The Licungo basin (23,263 km2) suffers frequent severe flooding due to tropical storms, in a country that is among the world’s most vulnerable in terms of ...
The influence of infragravity waves, wind, and basin resonance on vessel movements and related downtime at the Outer Port of Punta Langosteira, Spain
(Elsevier, 2022)
[Abstract:] The coupling of low-frequency oscillatory modes of a harbor with horizontal motions of moored ships can amplify the latter, causing operational and safety problems. The objectives of this study were to analyze ...
Multiscale flood risk assessment under climate change: the case of the Miño river in the city of Ourense, Spain
(European Geosciences Union, 2022)
[Abstract:] River floods, which are one of the most dangerous natural hazards worldwide, have increased in intensity and frequency in recent decades as a result of climate change, and the future scenario is expected to be ...
Analysis of surrogate physicochemical parameters for studying heavy metal pollution in urban road runoff
(MDPI, 2023)
[Abstract:] The pollution associated with road runoff water can generate significant impacts on the receiving natural environment due to the significant masses mobilized under certain climate, morphological, and anthropic ...
