Abstract

Climate change is the most important factor to increase in short-duration high-intensity rainfall and consequent flooding. Intensity-Duration Frequency (IDF) curves are commonly used tools in Stormwater design, so a method to derive future IDF curves including climate change effects could be necessary for mainstreaming climate change information into storm water planning. The objective of the present study is to define a mechanism to reflect the effect of climate change on the projected rainfall IDF relationships. For this, the continuously observed hourly rainfall data from 1969 to 2018 were divided into five subgroups. Then the IDF curve of each subgroup is defined. The rainfall intensity for the next 30 years was then estimated using a linear regression model. The obtained result indicates that for the same duration and for the same return period, the rainfall intensity is likely to increase over time: 17% (2019-2028), 25% (2029-2038) and 32% (2039-2048). However, the findings presented in this paper will be useful for local authorities and decision makers in terms of improving stormwater design and future flood damage will be avoided.

Analysis of Chinese Citizens’ Perception and Its Differences of City Spirit: A Case Study of Hefei City DOI:  https://doi.org/10.30564/jgr.v5i3.4788 Abstract City spirit is the soul of the city. The spread of city spirit not only could establish a civilized specimen for citizens, but also create a good cultural atmosphere for the city. Hefei residents’ perception of city spirit is extensive, and most of Hefei citizens consider the expression words of city spirit are very appropriate, which is enlightened, open-minded, actual and innovate. Great majority of Hefei citizens willing to support the propaganda and promotion of the city spirit, and they think the promotion of the city spirit plays a key role in the way of city’s development. In addition,significant differences in the perception of urban spirituality emerge among residents with different economic and social characteristics. There are four aspects about how to enhance the public perception of city spirit, which including in...

Experimental Simulation of Red Sprites in a Laboratory

Experimental Simulation of Red Sprites in a Laboratory DOI:  https://doi.org/10.30564/jasr.v5i3.4858 Abstract Over the past three decades, research of high-altitude atmospheric discharges has received a lot of attention. This paper presents the results of experimental modeling of red sprites during a discharge in low-pressure air. To initiate ionization waves in a quartz tube, an electrodeless pulseperiodic discharge fed by microsecond voltage pulses with an amplitude of a few kilovolts and a repetition rate of tens of kHz were formed. In this case ionization waves (streamers) have a length of tens of centimeters. The main plasma parameters were measured at various distances along the tube. The measurements confirm the fact that ionization waves propagate in opposite directions from the zone of the main electrodeless discharge, just as it happens during the formation of red sprites.
