Ecological sensitivity analysis of the Chengdu–Chongqing urban agglomeration toward the Yangtze river economic belt in China by Meicen Chen, Ling Wang

“…Taking the CCUA as the study area, this study constructed an ecological sensitivity evaluation index system for the CCUA, comprising six criterion layers: driving force, pressure, state, impact, response, and management, using the DPSIRM model. The spatial characteristics of the ecological sensitivity of the CCUA were also analyzed in-depth by establishing the Hierarchical Analysis method (AHP)-Ordered Weighted Average Arithmetic (OWA) weight distribution model. …”

MODERN MOVEMENTS OF THE CRUST SURFACE IN GORNY ALTAI FROM GPS DATA by V. Yu. Timofeev, D. G. Ardyukov, A. V. Timofeev, E. V. Boiko

“…The fault depth is estimated using the elastic model and the experimental data (change in displacement from 0.30 m to 0.02 m at the distances of 14 km and 84 km from the fault, respectively); it amounts to 8–10 km.The co-seismic deformation field is investigated.In the post-seismic stage (2004–2017), displacements revealedin the epicentral zone show the right-lateral strike-slip along the fault at the rate of 2 mm/yr. …”

SWAT‐Based Hydrological Data Assimilation System (SWAT‐HDAS): Description and Case Application to River Basin‐Scale Hydrological Predictions by Ying Zhang, Jinliang Hou, Juan Gu, Chunlin Huang, Xin Li

“…Abstract This paper presents the development and application of a physically based hydrological data assimilation system (HDAS) using the gridded and parallelized Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWATGP) distributed hydrological model. This SWAT‐HDAS software integrates remotely sensed data, including the leaf area index (LAI), snow cover fraction, snow water equivalent, soil moisture, and ground‐based observational data (e.g., from discharge and ground sensor networks), with SWATGP and the Parallel Data Assimilation Framework (PDAF) to accurately characterize watershed hydrological states and fluxes. …”
