The atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events in Piura, Peru, during the 1997-1998 and 2002 El Niño events
(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2004-11-29)
The lowland of Piura, in northwestern Peru, is very strongly impacted by El Niño. Its climate is arid but can experience very heavy rainfall associated with the high nearby sea surface temperature (SST) during El Niño ...
Generation of a severe convective ionospheric storm under stable Rayleigh-Taylor conditions: triggering by meteors?
(European Geosciences Union, 2016-02)
Here we report on four events detected using the Jicamarca Radio Observatory (JRO) over an 18-year period, in which huge convective ionospheric storms (CISs) occur in a stable ionosphere. We argue that these rare events ...
Quantification of the effect of precipitation as a triggering factor for landslides on the surroundings of medellín – colombia
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia Sede Medellín, 2014-10-24)
Malamud et al. [7] presented a theoretical function that explains the relationship between the area of landslides associated to a certain triggering event (heavy rainfall, snow melting, earthquake) and its frequency. This ...
The effects of extreme drought events on the morphometry of shallow lakes: Implications for sediment resuspension and littoral and pelagic zone distribution
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-11)
Shallow lakes, because of their depth, are more vulnerable to the effects of wind and changes in precipitation and evaporation that deeper lakes and thus respond more dramatically to extreme climatic events, such as drought. ...
Array analysis of the seismic wavefield of long-period events and volcanic tremor at Arenal volcano, Costa Rica
(2014-06-06)
We use wavefield decomposition methods (time domain cross correlation and frequency domain multiple-signal classification) to analyze seismic data recorded by a dense, small-aperture array located 2 km West of Arenal ...
Seismic activity triggered by water wells in the Parana Basin, Brazil
(AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION, 2010)
Triggered seismicity is commonly associated with deep water reservoirs or injection wells where water is injected at high pressure into the reservoir rock. However, earth tremors related solely to the opening of groundwater ...
Negative life events and migraine: a cross-sectional analysis of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) baseline data
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Abstract
Background
Stress is a typical migraine trigger. However, the impact of negative life events on migraine activity is poorly studied. The aim of this study is to ...
Operation of the ATLAS trigger system in Run 2
(Institute of Physics, 2020-10)
The ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider employs a two-level trigger
system to record data at an average rate of 1 kHz from physics collisions, starting from an initial
bunch crossing rate of 40 MHz. During the ...
SHIA_Landslide: developing a physically based model to predict shallow landslides triggered by rainfall in tropical environments
(2014)
Abstract: Landslides are one of the main causes of human and economic losses worldwide. Therefore, landslide hazard assessment and the capacity to predict these phenomenon has been a topic of great interest within scientific ...
