A Bayesian approach to postfire debris-flow probability modeling for southern California, United States

Background Intense rainfall on steep, burned landscapes can initiate postfire debris flows (PFDFs). Watershed-scale estimates of PFDF probability in response to a given rainfall intensity are beneficial for assessing PFDF hazards, including prioritizing areas for hazard mitigatio...

Interfacial LithiumRedox Kinetics Regulated by SolventAsymmetry and Moment of Inertia in Li Metal Batteries

Abstract Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) offer high energy density, but interfacial charge-transfer kinetics remain a bottleneck for high-rate operation. In this work, we construct a library of 12 ether solvents with systematic variations in symmetry and fluorination, confirming t...
