Many post-disaster surveys have reported on the natural function and effectiveness of fringing reef in preventing the shoreline from the inundation caused by severe weather events.Prior studies mainly focus on the wave propagating, transforming, and breaking on the fringing reefs by assuming that ocean waves propagate in an ideal environment where
Several types of contaminants are anthropogenically introduced into natural aquatic ecosystems and interact with other chemicals and/or with living organisms.Although metal toxicity alone has been relatively well studied, the toxic metal ion effects in the mixture have been thoroughly studied only during the last decades.This review focuses on the
The evolution and transformations of swidden agriculture closely relate to ongoing studies of carbon budget, biological diversity, ecosystem services, indigenous wellbeing, and ethnic identities.Remote sensing has become an important tool to quantify and display swidden agriculture in transition.Due to its diversity, dynamics, and complexity, howev
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) in networks is a communication technology that allows vehicles to communicate with their surroundings.Traffic Dryer Fabric Selector Switch congestion and unawareness of the travel of emergency vehicles (EVs) lead to delays in reaching the destination of the EV.In order to overcome this time delay, we propose a jitter-to-
