Book Description
America's unrestricted access to the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, Gulf of Mexico, rivers, Great Lakes, and Arctic region powers domestic and global commerce. The ease of moving cargo and people beyond our coasts fuels the Nation's competitive advantage, advances trade, generates capital, and drives the domestic economy forward, in turn projecting strength abroad and safeguarding our national interests. Similarly, the biological diversity and productivity of the ocean sustains the health of coastal communities and promotes a vibrant national economy. The ocean also plays a fundamental role in the Earth system. Ensuring responsible ocean stewardship with science and technology (S&T) breakthroughs depends on a strategic Federal portfolio supported by foundational basic research. Science and Technology for America's Oceans: A Decadal Vision identifies pressing research needs and areas of opportunity within the ocean S&T enterprise for the decade 2018-2028.

Book Description
This book showcases state-of-the-art advances in service science and related fields of research, education, and practice. It presents emerging technologies and applications in contexts ranging from healthcare, energy, finance, and information technology to transportation, sports, logistics, and public services. Regardless of its size and service, every service organization is a service system. Due to the socio-technical nature of service systems, a systems approach must be adopted in order to design, develop and deliver services aimed at meeting end users’ utilitarian and socio-psychological needs alike. Understanding services and service systems often requires combining multiple methods to consider how interactions between people, technologies, organizations and information create value under various conditions. The papers in this volume highlight a host of ways to approach these challenges in service science and are based on submissions to the 2021 INFORMS Conference on Service Science.

Meteorological Analysis of the Johnstown, Pennsylvania, Flash Flood, 19-20 July 1977

Pages : 82
Book Description
Synoptic and mesoscale analyses of the meteorological conditions that produced disastrous flash flooding in the Johnstown, PA., region on July 19-20, 1977, are presented. Detailed rainfall analyses based on surface rain gauges, National Weather Service (NWS) radar, and satellite rainfall estimation techniques are also shown. Dynamic processes associated with a weak short-wave trough triggered and maintained widespread thunderstorm activity over Pennsylvania and New York during the afternoon and evening of July 19. Two major squall lines moved across Pennsylvania. The western extension of the outflow boundary produced by the second squall line became quasi-stationary in western Pennsylvania, and appeared to be the primary feature that focused the heavy rainfall over a relatively small region. Warm, moist air was lifted over the rain-cooled air lying north and east of the boundary, triggering new storms in the same general region. The storms repeatedly moved southeastward over the Conemaugh River Basin, producing 8- to 9-h rainfalls of up to 12 in.
