Not only that, the heat of the fire actually burns and damages the soil, creating a water-repellent, or hydrophobic, layer.

Physical aquifer models are a highly effective teaching tool for hydrology education, however they come with inherent limitations that include the high cost to purchase, the static configuration of ...

A new study proposes a framework for understanding living matter as a cascade of machines making machines, extending from the atomic scale to the scale of the entire biosphere. What is life?-This ...

In its response, the forest department accepted that the boundary wall constructed on the hillslope area had been damaged due to rainwater and therefore been pulled down. The forest department ...

Not only that, the heat of the fire actually burns and damages the soil, creating a water-repellent, or hydrophobic, layer. What once was a vegetated hillslope, with leaves and trees to intercept rain ...
