Urbanization and human development have increased the exposure of seismic risk.Therefore, engineers need to develop new and more efficient technologies to protect people and objects from the disastrous consequences of earthquakes.Air casters have gained attention and have been utilized in the past decade as effective seismic vibration control devic
High-resolution mapping of tropical forest carbon stocks can assist forest management and improve implementation of large-scale carbon retention and enhancement programs.Previous high-resolution approaches have relied on field plot and/or light detection and ranging (LiDAR) samples of aboveground carbon density, which are typically upscaled to larg

Following confirmation of the first case of the ongoing U.S.HPAI H5N1 epizootic in commercial poultry on February 8, 2022, the virus has continued to devastate the U.S.poultry sector and the pathogen has since managed to cross over to livestock and a few human cases have also been reported.Efficient outbreak management benefits greatly from timely
Abstract Climate events that break records by large mre93ll/a apple watch margins are a threat to society and ecosystems.Climate change is expected to increase the probability of such events, but quantifying these probabilities is challenging due to natural variability and limited data availability, especially for observations and very rare extreme
