Abstract Precipitation extremes will increase in a warming climate, but the response of flood magnitudes to heavier precipitation events is less clear. Historically, there is little evidence for systematic increases in flood magnitude despite observed increases in precipitation extremes. Here we investigate how flood magnitudes change in response to warming, using a large initial-condition ensemble of simulations with a single climate model, coupled to a hydrological model. The model chain wa…

Journal: Climate · DOI: 10.3390/cli9090136 · Citations: 113

Matched topics: climate change

Global wind resources greatly exceed current electricity demand and the levelized cost of energy from wind turbines has shown precipitous declines. Accordingly, the installed capacity of wind turbines grew at an annualized rate of about 14% during the last two decades and wind turbines now provide ~6–7% of the global electricity supply. This renewable electricity generation source is thus already playing a role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the energy sector. Here we document tren…

Matched topics: irrigation

A hydrogel scaffold for direct tissue-engineering application in water-irrigated, arthroscopic cartilage repair, is badly needed. However, such hydrogels must cure quickly under water, bind strongly and permanently to the surrounding tissue, and maintain sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the hydraulic pressure of arthroscopic irrigation (~10 kilopascal). To address these challenges, we report a versatile hybrid photocrosslinkable (HPC) hydrogel fabricated though a combination of pho…

Improved YOLO Based Detection Algorithm for Floating Debris in Waterway

Authors: Feng Lin, Tian Hou, Qiannan Jin, Aiju You

Journal: Entropy · DOI: 10.3390/e23091111 · Citations: 78

Matched topics: surface water

Various floating debris in the waterway can be used as one kind of visual index to measure the water quality. The traditional image processing method is difficult to meet the requirements of real-time monitoring of floating debris in the waterway due to the complexity of the environment, such as reflection of sunlight, obstacles of water plants, a large difference between the near and far target scale, and so on. To address these issues, an improved YOLOv5s (FMA-YOLOv5s) algorithm by adding a…
