Prediction of Climate Change Induced Hydrogeomorphology by using SDSM in CAN Watershed by Ali Ahmadabadi, Zahra sedighifar

“…Climate change is one of the most important challenges that has affected various parts of human life on Earth. In the present study, in order to investigate the climate change, three synoptic stations of Karaj, Mehrabad and Dashan Tepeh with the help of the statistical statistic downscaling model (SDSM) model were used to predict the statistical period of 2016-2045. …”

Gardens of the Bible as a Place of Encounter between Man and God by Justyna Wawrzyniak

“…It explores moreover the sacred aspects of historical gardens and then describes the nature of individual gardens of the Bible and the events that took place there, closing with the results of observations ordered by parameters that make up the western-defined genius loci (spirit of the place), such as: things, earth, sky, order, and character. At the end of each description of a garden, the challenge of defining its spirit was taken for the first time. …”

Repetitive stability study of remdesivir/cyclodextrin complex on the international space station by György Dormán, Balázs Buchholcz, István Puskás, Pál Szabó, Erzsébet Varga, Lajos Szente, György M. Keserű, Ferenc Darvas

“…While HPLC/MS studies revealed no degradation of the cyclodextrin excipient in any of the samples investigated in both missions, RDV purity analysis of the RDV/SBECD complex after the first mission revealed different stabilities and altered degradation in space and on Earth. This latter interesting finding was not supported by the second mission, where no differences in the drug stabilities were identified. …”

Backcalculation of Finite-Element Modeling Based on Field Measurements Results of Excavation in Steel Sheet Pile Walls by Zoa Ambassa, Jean Chills Amba, Merlin Bodol Momha, Landry Djopkop Kouanang

“…Optimization numerical backcalculation results are given for the design and construction of retaining walls with adjustment parameters, horizontal displacements, and earth and hydraulic pressure measurements. The difficulties of modeling 2D sheet pile walls in 2D with irregular shapes were overcome by transforming the geometry and stiffness of these sheet steel sheet pile walls into retaining walls of equivalent bending stiffness on the one hand and regular geometric shapes on the other hand. …”

Scaling Arctic landscape and permafrost features improves active layer depth modeling by Wouter Hantson, Daryl Yang, Shawn P Serbin, Joshua B Fisher, Daniel J Hayes

“…Tundra ecosystems in the Arctic store up to 40% of global below-ground organic carbon but are exposed to the fastest climate warming on Earth. However, accurately monitoring landscape changes in the Arctic is challenging due to the complex interactions among permafrost, micro-topography, climate, vegetation, and disturbance. …”
