Soil typologies are characterized by different distribution and circulation of water, associated with specific water chemical properties, and thus potentially affects the distribution and density of malaria vectors in the Amazon. Based on a conceptual model of tropical soil evolution and distribution, the curvature of watershed slopes is a key indi...
Assessment of soil organic carbon stocks (SOCs) is highly relevant considering that SOCs is the central driver in climate change mitigation and soil fertility. In Madagascar, a first attempt at mapping SOCs on a national scale was undertaken in 2009 with previous soil data. Advanced research on soil carbon mapping on a global scale is required to e...
n this paper, global sensitivity analysis (GSA) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) have been applied to the problem of natural convection (NC) in a porous square cavity. This problem is widely used to provide physical insights into the processes of fluid flow and heat transfer in porous media. It introduces however several parameters whose values ...
This volume decentres the view of urbanisation in India from large agglomerations towards smaller urban settlements. It presents the outcomes of original research conducted over three years on subaltern processes of urbanization. The volume is organised in four sections. A first one deals with urbanisation dynamics and systems of cities with chapt...
