TL;DR: A biomass recovery map of Latin America is presented, which illustrates geographical and climatic variation in carbon sequestration potential during forest regrowth and will support policies to minimize forest loss in areas where biomass resilience is naturally low and promote forest regeneration and restoration in humid tropical lowland areas with high biomass resilience.

TL;DR: This study estimates the age and spatial extent of lowland second-growth forests in the Latin American tropics and model their potential aboveground carbon accumulation over four decades to guide national-level forest-based carbon mitigation plans.

TL;DR: The most recent edition of the Water Networks II (BWN-II) was held in 2012 as mentioned in this paper, where 14 teams participated and presented their results at the 14th Water Distribution Systems Analysis conference in Adelaide, Australia.

TL;DR: A novel optimization model for defining, in existing sewer drainage systems, the number of storage units, their location, size and the orifice dimensions is proposed and it aims to avoid flood throughout the entire network at a minimum expense.

TL;DR: In this paper, a prioritization approach based on the resilience index and the unitary power concept is proposed to select the most important pipes to replace in order to achieve two main objectives: first, to reduce loss of water due to leakage by decreasing and levelling pressures along the entire network; second, to decrease the dissipated energy in the system, making it more efficient and reliable.
