A well-crafted systematic review is often the initial step for researchers exploring a scientific field. For scientists new to this field, it provides a structured overview of the domain. For experts, it refines their understanding and sparks new ideas. In 2024 alone, 218,650 review articles were indexed in the Web of Science database, highlighting the importance of these resources in research.
]]>Antarctica plays a crucial role in regulating Earth’s climate. Most climate research into the world’s coldest, most windswept continent focuses on the surrounding Southern Ocean’s carbon dioxide absorption, or its vast, sunlight-reflecting glaciers. A group of Australian scientists is taking a different approach. Researchers are diving deep into Antarctic moss beds, using an AI-powered edge…
]]>The past few decades have witnessed a surge in rates of waste generation, closely linked to economic development and urbanization. This escalation in waste production poses substantial challenges for governments worldwide in terms of efficient processing and management. Despite the implementation of waste classification systems in developed countries, a significant portion of waste still ends up…
]]>One of the key contributors in originating flash floods is the blockage of cross-drainage hydraulic structures, such as culverts, by unwanted, flood-borne debris being transported. The accumulation and interaction of debris with culverts often result in reduced hydraulic capacity, diversion of upstream flows, and structural failure. For example, the Newcastle, Australia floods in 2007…
