In buried plastic water pipes, the predominantly fluid-borne wave is of particular interest, as it plays a key role in the propagation of leak noise. Consequently, it has been studied by several researchers to determine the speed of wave propagation and ...

Direct shear (DS) is a common geotechnical laboratory test used to determine strength and deformation properties of rock discontinuities, such as normal and shear stiffness, peak and residual shear strength, and dilation. These are used as inputs for dis...

The frequency range of the leak noise in buried water pipes, measured using acoustic correlators, depends significantly on the type of pipe and its location as well as the type of sensors used. Having a rough idea of this frequency range can be beneficia...

We developed a floodplain inundation model to extract specific flood extent and depth parameters and combined these with vegetation land cover and historic flow data to quantify spatial habitat suitability and temporal hydrologic metrics that support All...

Pakistan is vulnerable to a range of climate hazards, including sea-level rise. The Indus Delta region, situated in the coastal Sindh province, is particularly at risk of sea-level rise due to low-lying land and fragile ecosystems. In this article, exper...

Drones are now widely used to study wildlife, but their application in the study of bioacoustics is limited. Drones can be used to collect data on bird vocalizations, but an ongoing concern is that noise from drones could change bird vocalization behavio...

Isotope data and major ion chemistry were used to identify aquifer recharge mechanisms and geochemical evolution of groundwaters along the US?Mexico border. Local recharge originates as precipitation and occurs during winter through preferential infiltra...

Background: Postural strategies such as ankle, hip, or combined ankle-hip strategies are used to maintain optimal postural stability, which can be influenced by the footwear type and physiological workload. Purpose: This paper reports previously unreport...

Women globally experience mistreatment by health providers during childbirth. Researchers have identified strategies to counteract this type of abuse in health care, but few have been evaluated. We used a theater technique, Forum Play, in a brief trainin...

Combination of uncertainties in water level and wave height predictions for extreme storms can result in unacceptable levels of error, rendering flood hazard assessment frameworks less useful. A 2D inundation model, LISFLOOD-FP, was used to quantify sens...
