8.2 Wind
This document discusses different types of wind erosion and dune formation. It defines several terms related to wind erosion processes like suspension, saltation, deflation and abrasion. It also identifies three key conditions for wind erosion: dry conditions, little vegetation, and shorelines. The document describes different dune types including barchan, parabolic, transverse, and longitudinal dunes. It provides details on their crescent shapes, migration directions, locations of formation, and influencing wind patterns.
Plants and Mycorrhizal Fungi in Wind Erosion Control
This document summarizes research on using plants and mycorrhizal fungi to control wind erosion. It describes experimental investigations in a wind tunnel that showed reduced sediment mass flux and fine dust concentration with increasing plant density. A plant growth experiment found that mycorrhizal fungi improved plant survival and vitality in dry sandy soils. Further wind tunnel tests assessed how mycorrhizal fungi can reduce soil erodibility. The conclusions state that revegetation measures could be improved by adding mycorrhizal fungi to restore degraded soils and control wind erosion.
Chapter 8 section 3 (wind)
1) Wind erosion occurs through deflation and abrasion, which removes loose sediment and wears down rock surfaces over time.
2) Factors that increase erosion include a lack of vegetation and dry, loose soils, while factors that decrease erosion include vegetation, which holds soil in place, and windbreaks, which reduce wind speed.
3) Wind can deposit sediments as well, forming fertile soils like loess or landforms like dunes, which vary in shape depending on wind patterns and sediment availability.

Mainguet M. & Dumay F., 2011. Fighting wind erosion. one aspect of the combat against desertification. Les dossiers thématiques du CSFD. N°3. May 2011. CSFD/Agropolis International, Montpellier, France. 44 pp. - Wind erosion—alone or combined with other physical or socioeconomic causes—is a mechanism that may induce desertification, i.e. severe or irreversible degradation of water and soil resources. Now that this phenomenon is better understood, the model of the 1970s based on three distinct stages (causes, mechanisms, consequences) has been discarded, in view of the many feedbacks and insidious links generated by wind erosion. Timely detection of wind erosion onset thresholds with remote sensing tools (satellite images and aerial photographs), and spatial delimitation and positioning of the phenomena observed are essential to be able to efficiently combat the damaging effects of wind erosion. No field operations can be effective without prior knowledge of wind erosion mechanisms at the land-atmosphere interface.
Chapter 7 Section 4 Wind
Wind erosion occurs through deflation and abrasion, removing loose sediment and wearing down rock surfaces. It is a major erosional force in deserts, beaches, and plowed fields with little vegetation. Dust and sand storms can carry fine particles long distances. Planting vegetation is the most effective way to reduce wind erosion through windbreaks, trapping sediment, and stabilizing soil with roots. Wind deposition forms loess soils and migrating dunes that vary in shape depending on factors like wind direction and available sediment.
Deserts
Deserts are defined by their lack of moisture, which makes the landscape unwelcoming. The document discusses the different types of deserts found around the world and their defining characteristics. It also describes the surfaces common in deserts like sand, hamadas, and various landforms created by aeolian processes like erosion. Wind is a major factor that shapes desert landscapes through the formation of different dune patterns like linear, star, and barkhan dunes. Despite harsh conditions, deserts contain delicate ecosystems that have adapted to the dry environment.
Eolian
Wind processes shape desert landscapes through erosion, transportation, and deposition of materials. Erosion occurs through abrasion and deflation. Transportation is primarily through saltation and surface creep. Deposition forms sand dunes and loess. Different types of dunes like barchan and transverse form depending on factors like wind strength and direction and sand supply. Desert landscapes cover 35% of Earth's surface and include features like washes, playas, and alluvial fans adapted to arid conditions. The Colorado River flows through arid lands and seven states facing issues of overuse and political agreements regulating its flow. While grazing has been identified as a cause of desertification in some local areas, the idea of it as a global
Unit 3 pp #5 6th grade
Wind erosion involves the processes of saltation, deflation, and abrasion. Saltation is the bouncing movement of sand grains caused by wind, which knock other grains into movement. Deflation is the removal of fine particles by wind, leaving behind heavier fragments. Abrasion is the grinding and wearing away of rock surfaces by wind-blown particles. Loess deposits are fine-grained sediments transported and deposited by wind over long distances. Dunes form as wind deposits sand, creating obstacles that are buried and form mounds. Gravity causes mass movement of material down slopes. Rapid movements include rock falls, landslides, mudflows, and lahars while creep is a slow mass movement.
Arid Aeolian Landform
The document discusses various landforms found in arid and semi-arid landscapes formed by wind erosion. It describes different types of deserts including ergs which are seas of sand, regs which are desert pavements, and hamadas where bedrock predominates. It also outlines various erosional landforms caused by wind such as deflation hollows, ventifacts which are sand-blasted rock surfaces, yardangs, and different types of migrating dunes including longitudinal, transverse, barchan, and parabolic dunes. It provides examples of many of these landforms.

Desert landscapes dominated by wind
The document discusses desert landscapes and the climatic and geological processes that shape them. Deserts cover 30% of the Earth's land and experience little rainfall each year, typically less than 100mm. They are located in subtropical regions near the 30 degree latitudes, where global wind patterns limit rainfall. Deserts form due to low rainfall and high evaporation. Wind erosion shapes deserts by removing sand and depositing it in dunes and loess deposits. Water erosion forms features like hoodoos, slot canyons, mesas and buttes through processes like deflation and abrasion. Water deposition builds up alluvial fans and bajadas at the edges of deserts.
Wind Erosion
Wind erosion can occur through abrasion, deflation, and wind transportation processes. There are four main types of wind deposition: most common is barchan dunes which need constant wind in one direction; parabolic dunes are common near coasts with moderate winds; transverse dunes form under strong winds blowing constantly in one direction; and longitudinal dunes occur where winds blow in two directions with limited sand supply.
Soil erosion by wind
Wind erosion can damage crops, buildings, and infrastructure by removing topsoil and nutrients. It can reduce crop yields and negatively impact human health. Soil movement is initiated by wind turbulence and velocity above certain thresholds. Fine particles are transported long distances by wind and deposited when velocities decrease due to obstructions. Controlling wind erosion requires maintaining ground cover through crops, windbreaks, contour plowing, and managing soil moisture.
Aeolian process and landform by shivam soni B.Sc student of Department of App...
Wind processes produce eolian landforms. One third of the planet's land is arid or semi-arid. Wind action can be divided into erosion, transportation, and deposition. Erosion includes deflation, abrasion, and attrition which produce features like yardangs, ventifacts, and desert pavement. Transportation occurs by saltation, suspension, and surface creep. Deposition forms sand seas and sheets. Sand dunes depend on wind strength and direction, and come in various shapes that can migrate over time.
Chapter18 wind erosion and deposition
This chapter discusses landforms and geomorphic processes in arid regions. It notes that while running water is more effective than wind at shaping the landscape, wind still plays an important role in desert environments where vegetation is sparse. Some key landforms created by fluvial processes include arroyos, alluvial fans, and playas in interior basins. Eolian processes form dunes, yardangs, and loess deposits. Deserts also exhibit features related to tectonic uplift and erosion over long time periods, like inselbergs and pediments. Together, the interplay of fluvial, eolian and tectonic forces sculpt diverse landscapes in the world's arid regions.
Wind erosion
Soil erosion is a major global problem, with 75 billion tons of fertile soil lost annually worldwide. Wind erosion is a significant issue, removing 40% of Pakistan's soil over time. Several factors influence wind erosion, including soil texture, structure, protection by plants, rainfall, and wind force. Methods to control wind erosion include planting shelterbelts, increasing soil organic matter, strip cropping perpendicular to winds, leaving stubble barriers, and reducing tillage. Proper land management is key to reducing the effects of wind on soils.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAU
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away

Lightning volt
- 1. App Overview: 3D Lightning Volt Users can play around with lightning effects by tapping on screen and watching a lightning bolt “zap” them with an associated sound effect and phone vibration. In addition, they can prank their friends into trying to unlock a fake unlock screen and getting “zapped” in the process. They can also create a security device where the phone vibrates, screen turns on and an alarm sounds if the device is moved.
- 2. Home Screen: 4 background options: Sphere: Lighting emerges from 3D Lightning Volt sphere image. (Return to this settings screen by tapping this area) Lock: Lock screen with slide to unlock animation Sphere Lock Security Custom Security: Lightning strikes if Vibrate: On / Off device is moved. Sound: On / Off Custom: User can add custom Strobe: On / Off background image. Other options: User can turn on / off vibrate, sound and strobe light.
- 3. Sphere Background: Lightning strikes from sphere when user touches screen.
- 4. Lock Screen Background: Looks like standard iPhone lock screen with slide to unlock animation and current date and time.
- 5. Lock Screen Background: Lightning strikes if user touches anywhere on screen. User can touch clock to return to settings screen.
- 6. Security Background: Lightning strikes if user moves device (use accelerometer to sense). Alarm sounds. User can touch top area to return to settings screen.
- 7. Custom Background: User can upload their own picture. Lightning will strike if they touch anywhere on screen.
