Bacterial diversity impacts as a result of combined sewer overflow in a polluted waterway by O. Calderon, H. Porter-Morgan, J. Jacob, W. Elkins

“…The creek is also impacted by discharges from twenty combined sewer overflow pipes, which may deposit raw sewage or partially treated wastewater directly into the creek during heavy or sustained rain events. Combined sewer overflow events and associated nutrient over-enrichment at the creek drive eutrophication and subsequent hypoxia. …”

False Alarm Causes and Wind Field Sensitivity Analysis of a Severe Rainfall Event in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Urban Cluster by Lan Zhang, Jiawen Zheng, Huaiyu Li, Rui Yu, Lei Wei, Yufei Zhang

“…Numerical forecast models ECMWF and CMA-TRAMS overestimated the 850 hPa windspeed and 925 hPa meridional windspeed, resulting in the forecasted urban cluster experiencing heavy rain. Sensitivity tests of wind fields indicate that the 850 hPa wind field information is more sensitive to precipitation in the urban cluster. …”

Assessment of Physicochemical Parameters of Harvested Rainwater in Hamuhambo Town Council Rubanda District. by Atuheire, Israel

“…There were no significant variations in the variables accessed apart from an abnormally high turbidity value at ST 05 where the sample was picked from the minimal water remaining on the floor that contained a lot of total dissolved solids suggesting regular cleaning of the RWHS at the beginning of each rain season, a first flush of 15 minutes at the beginning of the rain and installation of proper pre-filtration mechanisms. …”

Entre lógicas cinegéticas y agrícolas: el chamanismo nahua en una cosmología de sacrificio by David Lorente Fernández

“…Nahua shamanism relates to a sacrificial cosmology that places predation as the first moment of a cosmic cycle of agonistic exchange, whose moment of retribution is linked to rain and agricultural fertility. The specificity of Nahua shamanism lies precisely in this articulation of logics of a hunting and agricultural nature, involved in the definition all at once of the entities at work, of the specialist himself and of the dynamics that govern the exercise of cosmic politics.…”
