Effects of Small-scale Armoring and Residential Development on the Salt Marsh/Upland Ecotone in Coastal Georgia, USA
Use of small-scale armoring placed near the marsh-upland interface to protect single-family homes from flooding is a widespread coastal development practice, but its effect on the environment is under studied. We compared the biota and environmental characteristics of 60 marshes on the coast of Georgia, USA, that were adjacent to either a bulkhead, a residential backyard with no armoring, or an intact forest during June-July 2013 using a nested, spatially blocked sampling design. For each plot in each sampling site, we used real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS to measure the location and elevation of the upper marsh. We collected cores to determine porewater salinity and nutrient concentrations as well as grain size distribution of marsh sediments. We quantified flora (vegetation composition) and fauna (snail, bivalve, and crab abundance) in the upper marsh ecotone. For sites with bulkheads, we recorded the height, thickness and condition of the bulkhead, as well as surveyed the animals living on and around the bulkheads.
Data for: Deriving early hydration cement paste phase assemblage, microstructure development and elastic properties using thermodynamic simulation and multi-scale material modeling
<h2>Description</h2> <p>DATA REPOSITORY FOR</p> <p>Title: Deriving early hydration cement paste phase assemblage, microstructure development and elastic properties using thermodynamic simulation and <br> multi-scale material modeling<br>By: Eva Jägle, Jithender J. Timothy, Daniel Jansen, Alisa Machner<br>Accepted by: Cement and Concrete Research</p> <p>This dataset presents the data of the paper 'Deriving early hydration cement paste phase assemblage, microstructure development and elastic properties using thermodynamic simulation and multi-scale material modeling' submitted to and accepted by Cement and Concrete Research. The dataset follows the structure of the paper such that the calculations described therein can be reproduced.</p> <p>Data is available on three types of cement: Two ordinary Portland cements of different grinding fineness (CEM I 42.5 R und CEM I 52.5 R) and one limestone-containing blended cement (CEM II/A-LL 42.5 R). The data refer to the first 24 hours of hydration and temperature conditions of 20°C (for CEM I 42.5 R, CEM I 52.5 R, CEM II/A-LL 42.5 R) and 35°C (for CEM I 52.5 R). All data were retrieved for cement pastes with a water-to-cement ratio of 0.45.</p> <p>The dataset contains raw and processed data from quantitative X-ray diffraction, 5PL cement dissolution fitting, thermodynamic simulation with GEMS, multi-scale material modeling, ultrasonic testing and Vicat penetration tests. The data is mainly available in .xlsx files together with short descriptions in ReadMe.txt files.</p>
Development of a global inundation map at high spatial resolution from topographic downscaling of coarse-scale remote sensing data
<p><strong>Overview:</strong> The Global Inundation Extent from Multi-Satellites (GIEMS; Prigent et al. 2007, Papa et al. 2010) downscaled at 15 arc-second (GIEMS-D15; Fluet-Chouinard et al. 2015) was produced through the downscaling of the GIEMS database (natively at 0.25°). The downscaling procedure predicts the location of surface water cover with an inundation ranking surface generated by bagged decision trees. The decision trees were trained on binary presence/absence of wetland in the GLC2000 global land cover map (Bartholomé & Belward 2005) and used 13 topographic and hydrographic predictors derived from the SRTM-derived HydroSHEDS database (Lehner, Verdin & Jarvis 2008). The downscaling technique to three temporal aggregation of the GIEMS dataset representing three states of land surface inundation extents: mean annual minimum (MA<sub>Min</sub>; total area, 6.5 × 106 km<sup>2</sup>), mean annual maximum (MA<sub>Max</sub>; 12.1 × 106 km<sup>2</sup>), and long-term maximum (LT<sub>Max</sub>; 17.3 × 106 km<sup>2</sup>). The area of MAMin and MAMax from GIEMS were supplemented with the minimum area value from lakes, river and reservoirs from GLWD (Lehner & Döll 2004; classes 1,2,3). LTMax was corrected as the mean area from 3-year rolling maximum from GIEMS and the total wetland area from GLWD (classes 1-12). The accuracy of GIEMS-D15 reflects distribution errors introduced by the downscaling process as well as errors from the original satellite estimates. Yet, a comparison against independent regional wetland maps showed adequate agreement over large floodplains and wetlands. GIEMS-D15 offers a higher resolution delineation of inundated areas than originally offered by GIEMS, allowing for the assessment of global freshwater resources and the study of large floodplain and wetland ecosystems.</p> <p><strong>Projection:</strong> WGS84 (EPSG:4326)</p> <p><strong>Geographic extent:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Longitude: -180° to 180°</li> <li>Latitude: -56° to 84°</li> </ul> <p><strong>Spatial resolution: </strong>15 arc-second (500m at equator)</p> <p><strong>Legend</strong> (for discrete pixel values):</p> <ul> <li>0 = Upland</li> <li>1 = Mean Annual Minimum (MA<sub>Min</sub>)</li> <li>2 = Mean Annual Maximum (MA<sub>Max</sub>)</li> <li>3 = Long Term Maximum (LT<sub>Max</sub>)</li> </ul>

Basin-scale spatio-temporal development of glacial lakes in the Hindukush-Karakoram-Himalayas
<p>This dataset offers detailed inventories of glacial lakes for the years 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2020 in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region. Landsat satellite imagery was utilised to map glacial lakes, encompassing all lakes that are equal to or exceed 0.0036 km² in size.</p> <p>In the latest inventory from 2020, we identified a total of 19,284 glacial lakes, encompassing a cumulative area of 1191.81 ± 209.21 km². The investigation encompasses comprehensive mapping at the sub-basin level over the whole study area, facilitating regional-scale evaluations of glacial lake distribution and expansion. The findings reveal a significant rise in glacial lakes over the last thirty years, with a 9.31% increase in the number of lakes and a 10.09% increase in total lake area within the HKH region.</p>

Figure 6. Change the frequency at Hertz scale to Mel Scale.-Development an Automatic Speech to Facial Animation Conversion for Improve Deaf Lives
<p>Following computing the spectrum power and applying the above equation on frequency<br> axis, some mediating filters equal to identical overlapping are applied on the scaled spectrum and<br> each filters energy is computed as particularity. This is because conception of a particular frequency<br> by the auditory system is affected by a critical band of frequencies surrounding it. Number of filters<br> is usually between 20 and 30. Logarithmic non linear change operations on obtained particulates for<br> adjusting amplified of particularities and their important though coordinating them with the<br> structure of the auditory system following computing energy of each filter is done as follows: in the<br> following equation F1 is filter in I th, and e (i) is logarithm of energy at ith band.</p>

Text-fig. 9. Lusitanispermum choffatii gen. et sp. nov. seeds from the Early Cretaceous Famalicão locality (sample 025), Portugal; Synchrotron radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy (SRXTM, orthoslices). a) Longitudinal orthoslice (yz0769) through the median plane of the seed (S174345) showing expanded exotestal cells (ex, arrow head) in the hilar region and well-preserved cellular nutritive tissue with an embedded tiny embryo (asterisk markes the margin of the embryo); note well-developed mesotesta (me) on the raphal side of seed. b) Longitudinal orthoslice (yz0750) in the median plane showing detail of micropylar part of seed with well-preserved exotesta (ex) and mesotesta (me) and tiny embryo with two rudimentary cotyledons (asterisks mark the margin of the cotyledons); note numerous granular bodies in the cellular nutritive tissue that are probably the remains of protein and lipid bodies. c) Transverse orthoslice (xy0311) through seed below hilum showing the bulging exotesta (arrow heads) (S174472); note that the exotestal cells in this region have thinner walls (arrows). d) Transverse orthoslice (xy0900) through the middle of a seed showing the uneven thickening of the anticlinal walls of the exotestal cells (ex), which are thicker towards the outside and very thin towards the inside; note also mesotesta (me) and the well-preserved cellular nutritive tissue (S174472). Scale bars = 500 µm (a, d); 250 µm (b, c). in Extinct Taxa Of Exotestal Seeds Close To Austrobaileyales And Nymphaeales From The Early Cretaceous Of Portugal
