Researchers examined the costs of weather-related damage and destruction for companies and government agencies with multiple buildings. The researchers focused on the large building portfolio of the U.S. Department of Defense. Their study aims to help organizations plan for the rising costs associated with long-range facilities maintenance and replacement.
Accurate, high-temporal-resolution population data are critical for urban planning and emergency response as cities grow. Traditional population census data, with their slow update cycles, cannot meet these demands. Researchers from the State University of New York at Buffalo have developed a new framework that combines remote sensing and mobile phone data, producing monthly population maps down to the census block level, providing more detailed population insights.
People with constipation may have a higher risk of having a heart attack or stroke, and the risk increases in people who also have high blood pressure. The findings of a new study are published in the American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology. The study has been chosen as an APSselect article for October.
