Impact of selective evidence presentation on judgments of health inequality trends: an experimental study. by Sam Harper, Nicholas B King, Meredith E Young

“…Selective exposure to ratio versus difference inequality graphs thus increased the difference between groups in concluding that inequality had increased from 2.5% (95% CI -9.5% to 14.5%) to 45% (95% CI 29.4 to 60.6). A similar pattern was evident for other scenarios where absolute and relative inequality trends gave conflicting results. …”

Assessing the Effects of Climate Change and Land‐Use Changes on Extreme Discharge in the Western Watershed of Lake Urmia, Iran by Ghasem Farahmand, Behzad Hessari, Hossein Salehi

“…Furthermore, land‐use change assessments indicated that expanding orchards and irrigated and rain‐fed agricultural lands will significantly elevate future peak discharge, with differences exceeding 10 m3/s in sub‐basins like Nazlochay and Barandozchay, driven by reduced infiltration and increased runoff rates. Modeling with these tools confirmed that climate and land‐use changes synergistically alter flood dynamics, a pattern consistent with regional studies. …”

Experimental study on the dynamic properties of low-cement sludge solidified soil under long-term cyclic loading by Jiantao Lin, Wenjun Wang, Xiao Cheng, Haoqiang Pan

“…The test results revealed the following: (1) The cumulative deformation of the solidified soil exhibited either a “stable” or a “failure” pattern, with the transition governed by the critical dynamic load, which was strongly influenced by the cement content. (2) Increasing the cement content significantly enhanced the fatigue resistance of the solidified soil; when the content was increased from 4 to 6%, the fatigue life improved by up to 575%. (3) When the cement content exceeded 6%, the growth rates of both fatigue life and initial dynamic elastic modulus slowed markedly, indicating a clear phenomenon of diminishing marginal returns. …”
