Hierarchical ordered logistic regression analysis of urban rail transit driver fatigue determinants: impact of emotion regulation and sleep patterns

Juanli Du, Zhiqiang Sun, Chaozhe Jiang • Scientific Reports (2026)

Abstract Urban rail transit (URT) drivers play a crucial role in ensuring operational safety; however, existing literature lacks in-depth research on the underlying mechanisms influencing driver fatigue in URT systems. To fill this gap, thi...

Enhanced Satellite Monitoring of Dryland Vegetation Water Potential Through Multi‐Source Sensor Fusion

J. Du, J. S. Kimball, J. S. Guo, S. A. Kannenberg et al. • Geophysical Research Letters (2024)

Abstract Drylands are critical in regulating global carbon sequestration, but the resiliency of these semi‐arid shrub, grassland and forest systems is under threat from global warming and intensifying water stress. We used synergistic satel...

The Concept of the Geotourism Potential and Its Practical Application: A Case Study of the Prządki (the Spinners) Nature Reserve in the Carpathians, Poland

Ewa Welc, Krzysztof Miśkiewicz • Resources (2020)

This paper reviews the recent use of the term “geotourism potential” in the scientific literature and proposes a new approach to the concept of geotourism potential. The concept assumes that every geotourism object has the well-developed fe...

ELF and VLF signatures of sprites registered onboard the low altitude satellite DEMETER

J. Błęcki, J. Błęcki, M. Parrot, R. Wronowski • Annales Geophysicae (2009)

We report the observation of ELF and VLF signature of sprites recorded on the low altitude satellite DEMETER during thunderstorm activity. At an altitude of ~700 km, waves observed on the E-field spectrograms at mid-to-low latitudes duri...

Excitation thresholds of field-aligned irregularities and associated ionospheric hysteresis at very high latitudes observed using SPEAR-induced HF radar backscatter

D. M. Wright, R. S. Dhillon, T. K. Yeoman, T. R. Robinson et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2009)

On 10 October 2006 the SPEAR high power radar facility was operated in a power-stepping mode where both CUTLASS radars were detecting backscatter from the SPEAR-induced field-aligned irregularities (FAIs). The effective radiated power of...

Observations on Stratospheric-Mesospheric-Thermospheric temperatures using Indian MST radar and co-located LIDAR during Leonid Meteor Shower (LMS)

R. Selvamurugan, R. Selvamurugan, R. Selvamurugan, C. V. Devasia et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2002)

The temporal and height statistics of the occurrence of meteor trails during the Leonid meteor shower revealed the capability of the Indian MST radar to record large numbers of meteor trails. The distribution of radio meteor trails du...

Anomalous effect in Schumann resonance phenomena observed in Japan, possibly associated with the Chi-chi earthquake in Taiwan

M. Hayakawa, K. Ohta, A. P. Nickolaenko, A. P. Nickolaenko et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2005)

The Schumann resonance phenomenon has been monitored at Nakatsugawa (near Nagoya) in Japan since the beginning of 1999, and due to the occurance of a severe earthquake (so-called Chi-chi earthquake) on 21 September 1999 in Taiwan we have...

Terrestrial Remote Sensing of Snowmelt in a Diverse High-Arctic Tundra Environment Using Time-Lapse Imagery

Daniel Kępski, Bartłomiej Luks, Krzysztof Migała, Tomasz Wawrzyniak et al. • Remote Sensing (2017)

Snow cover is one of the crucial factors influencing the plant distribution in harsh Arctic regions. In tundra environments, wind redistribution of snow leads to a very heterogeneous spatial distribution which influences growth conditions f...

Settlement process of radioactive dust to the ground inferred from the atmospheric electric field measurement

M. Yamauchi, M. Takeda, M. Makino, T. Owada et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2012)

Radioactive materials from the accident at Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant (FNPP) in March 2011 spread over a large area, increasing the atmospheric electric conductivity by their ionizing effect, and reducing the vertical (downwa...

Generation of layering in the upper arctic troposphere away from the jet stream

A. Karpetchko, A. Karpetchko, E. Kyro, P. von der Gathen • Annales Geophysicae (2003)

Ozone sounding databases for two stations, So-dankylä (67° N, 27° E) and Ny-Ålesund (79° N, 12° E) were used in order to investigate the generation of layering in the upper and middle troposphere of the Arctic. We concentrated on dry,...

Crustal rheology controls on the Tibetan plateau formation during India-Asia convergence

Lin Chen, Fabio A. Capitanio, Lijun Liu, Taras V. Gerya • Nature Communications (2017)

Tibetan plateau deformation is variable, but what controls those variations is still poorly understood. Here, the authors use 3D numerical models to show that the variations observed in lithosphere deformation are controlled by heterogeneit...

Spatial random downscaling of rainfall signals in Andean heterogeneous terrain

A. Posadas, L. A. Duffaut Espinosa, C. Yarlequé, M. Carbajal et al. • Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics (2015)

Remotely sensed data are often used as proxies for indirect precipitation measures over data-scarce and complex-terrain areas such as the Peruvian Andes. Although this information might be appropriate for some research requirements, the ext...
