This work presents a new analytical solution of the shallow water theory for cylindrical propagation of long tsunami-like waves in the basin of variable depth. Considered model cases are related to tsunami wave propagation from an asteroid fallen into the sea, or from underwater volcanic eruptions. The corresponding bottom geometries represent radially symmetric obstacles such ...

In this letter, bipolar solitary wave interactions in the Schamel equation are revisited numerically. Two simulation settings are considered: repeated collisions in a periodic domain, and the interaction of a positive solitary wave with a train of negative polarity solitary waves of equal amplitude. In the first case, when the amplitudes are comparable, the larger ...

В обзоре интеллектуальное наследие В.И. Вернадского (1863-1945) рассматривается в контексте зарубежных инвайронментальных исследований (преимущественно на материале англоязычных публикаций двух последних десятилетий). Реконструируются ключевые идейные истоки мировоззрения Вернадского: влияние В.В. Докучаева, русского космизма и концепции ноосферы П. Тейяра де Шардена. Анализируются понятия научной системы Вернадского - «живое вещество», «биосфера» и «ноосфера»; прослеживается их рецепция в современных ...

The growing complexity of modern urban infrastructure increased demands on the efficiency of heat supply, which must be ensured by the sustainable and efficient operation of supply organizations. Decrease in thermal comfort, or overspending of thermal energy is followed by bad quality of control. Systemically, the heat consumption of residential buildings on a city range ...

Rangeland degradation is a global environmental challenge; however, intense debate persists between equilibrium (focused on the negative effects of grazing intensity) and non-equilibrium (emphasizing livestock mobility for adapting to climate variability) theories in rangeland ecology. In recent years, an integrative theory advocating the “coexistence of equilibrium and non-equilibrium” has emerged to reconcile this debate. However, ...

Drawing from the recent COP28, which espouses a boom in clean energy transition through technological forwardness, and the framework of the SDG, we address critical questions related to green investment, energy investment, and environmental sustainability. We scrutinize whether green technology genuinely leads to green investment and energy investment in China and whether the causal nexus ...

Migration for higher education is one of the largest and most intense migration flows in most developed countries, and Russia is no exception. The direction of educational migration flows is determined by many factors. Among these, traditionally significant determinants of the basic gravity model include the population size of the centers participating in migration exchange ...

Multivariate approaches are needed to gain a better understanding of the positive and negative impacts of Dark Triad traits within personality networks under different socio-cultural and personal conditions. In three independent studies in two countries (total N of participants = 4700), we applied network analyses and structural equation modeling to investigate the network of personality (Dark Triad ...

The article presents a study of resilience strategies of creative youth in the North Caucasus using the example of Pyatigorsk and Nalchik. The theoretical framework of the study combines a processual understanding of resilience with an interpretation of locality as a subjectively constructed connection to place, allowing for an analysis of the resilience of creative ...

Взрывной рост объема данных несколько последних десятилетий ставит вопрос перехода от количества к качеству их использования, ведь не всегда они доходят до конечного пользователя и используются на региональном и локальном уровне. Данные дистанционного зондирования Земли из космоса (ДЗЗ), основанные на длинных временных сериях, и результаты их обработки уже давно стали глобальными цифровыми продуктами. Когда речь ...

This paper presents the first results of a coordinated experiment on the ionospheric plasma response to high-frequency (HF) overdense heating, conducted using the SURA heating facility and the Ionosfera-M satellite. The experiment combined ground-based observations with in situ satellite measurements, enabling a comprehensive study of artificial ionospheric disturbances. During the experiment, the SURA facility transmitted ...

This study analyzes data from the ERG (Arase) satellite over a period of nearly 7 years (2017–2023). During this time, about 1,000 cases of hectometric continuum (HMC) radiation in near‐Earth space were detected, which made it possible to identify characteristic features on different time scales. On a daily scale, it was established that HMC is ...

The ERG (Arase) satellite recently discovered a non-thermal hectometric continuum with a narrowband frequency structure. The mechanism behind the generation of this type of emission in the near-Earth plasma is still unknown. This study examines the potential use of electron cyclotron harmonics instability to explain the line structure of hectometric radio emissions for the first ...

The carbon balance of an ecosystem is the difference between Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) and Ecosystem Respiration (Reco) as expressed by Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE). While remote sensing retrievals of GPP have reached maturity, Reco estimation remains underexplored and ultimately cast bias on NEE. Here we present an end-to-end multi-scale analysis of the mechanism of ...
