Crossing properties of soil saturation, defined as the duration and excursion of soil saturation below and above certain thresholds, are key variables to ecosystem functioning and evolution by primarily influencing the plant and soil microbes physiological ...
North of La Rochelle, the Baie de l'Aiguillon bears witness to a structurally invasive past, partially camouflaged in its shallow waters. 400 hectares of abandoned oyster beds locally known as crassats, remnants of the shellfish industry, lie in the intert ...
We study mixing and diffusion properties of passive scalars driven by generic rough shear flows. Genericity is here understood in the sense of prevalence, and (ir)regularity is measured in the Besov-Nikolskii scale B\alpha 1,\infty, \alpha \in (0,1). We pr ...
The seasonal movement of the zero-degree isotherm across the Southern Ocean and Antarctic Peninsula drives major changes in the physical and biological processes around maritime Antarctica. These include spatial and temporal shifts in precipitation phase, ...
The subsidence occurring in the city of Tuzla in Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) is an important issue which has caused several damages in the past decades. This phenomena is related to the massive extraction of salt and the presence of salt caverns below the ...
The note presents selected results of an experimental campaign conducted with the aim to investigate the hydro-mechanical behaviour of a shale recovered at a depth of about 900 m below the ground. High-pressure oedometric tests were performed to investigat ...
Once a commune in the heart of Apuseni mountains, Geamăna undergone a radical change, from a territory resourceful in its domesticity to a post-extraction environment. As of 1984, more than 400 families forcefully relocated, due to the village becoming flo ...
Impaired sediment transport can have numerous adverse impacts on the eco-morphodynamics of the riverscape. If well designed, sediment augmentation measures present a promising mitigation approach at different scales. This chapter focuses on flume experim ...
Plastic litter is a major environmental hazard that endangers human, animal, and plant health on the planet. A substantial portion of plastic pollutants is washed from rivers and beaches into the oceans and aggregates at the surface as marine debris before ...
The present paper concerns the linear fate of transverse perturbations in a gravity-driven, thin-film flow over a soluble substrate. We propose a reduced-order model, based on a boundary-layer treatment of the solute transport and a depth-integration of th ...
