Drivers and consequences of human-elephant interactions in an agricultural landscape of rural Kenya
(2022-08-02)
Globally, interactions between people and wildlife are increasing due to habitat loss and conversion and the movement of people and wildlife into areas in which they were not previously present. Many of these interactions ...
Drop Shock Performance of Solder Alloys in BGA Assemblies under Different Thermal Conditions
(2024-05-03)
Lead-free soldering has become mainstream since the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive. Solders have come a long way from the traditional SnPb (Tin-Lead) to lead-free alloys doped with elements such as ...
Drought Forecasting for Small to Mid-sized Communities of the Southeast United States
(2012-05-07)
Most of the climate variability in the Southeast United States has been attributed to El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and this climate variability has resulted in increased the stress on water resources of the region ...
Drought Management Plans in Major Cities of the Southeastern U.S. v. Western U.S.
(2019-04-23)
The severe drought conditions impacting California and the Western United States over the last several years have led to greater awareness of the consequences of water scarcity and the need for effective drought policy. ...
Drought Management Plans of States in the Southeastern United States: A Comprehensive Evaluation
(2023-05-16)
While the Southeast is often considered to be a region of abundant rainfall and humidity, severe droughts over the last two decades have raised awareness of the importance of proper management strategies at the state level. ...
