Recharge areas of the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) are particularly sensitive and vulnerable to climate variability; therefore, the understanding of infiltration mechanisms for aquifer recharge and surface run-off generation ...

In a rapidly growing energy demand scenario, renewables have been seen as the answer to ensure a sustainable energy grid. In Brazil, the photovoltaic sources under distributed generation have become more and more popular ...

Hot dust-obscured galaxies (Hot DOGs) are a population of hyper-luminous infrared galaxies identified by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission from their very red mid-IR colors, and characterized by hot ...

Abstract. Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is considered to be a loss of ventilatory acclimatization to high altitude (>2500 m) resulting in marked arterial hypoxemia and polycythemia. This case-control study explores ...

Operation planning models for hydro-dominated power systems usually use low temporal resolutions due to the excessive computational burden, thus ignoring short-term characteristics of such systems. As a result, in systems ...
