Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) models define the relationship between soil moisture and matric suction, which is essential for geotechnical and hydrological analyses. This study evaluated the performance of seven widely … Continue reading Data-Driven Parameterization and Comparison of SWCC Models
While Ridge regression demonstrated strong predictive performance in estimating soil resistivity from moisture, suction, and temperature data, incorporating pore-structure-informed features can substantially enhance this modeling framework. Future work will integrate … Continue reading Machine Learning-Based Prediction of Soil Electrical Resistivity Using Field-Instrumented Hydrologic Data
The Asphalt Institute’s new Asphalt Odor Management Tool is a comprehensive, science-based resource that helps facilities better understand, evaluate, and control odors from stationary asphalt operations. This user-friendly guide explains … Continue reading Asphalt Institute’s Asphalt Odor Management Tool
The paper presents a study on the evaporation of water from high plasticity clayey soil and its impact on desiccation cracking behavior, particularly under high temperature conditions. The compaction water … Continue reading Laboratory Experiments of Water Evaporation from High Plasticity Clayey Soil to Investigate Cracking ...
As a Professional Geologist, Jake Dyson is responsible for the permitting, drilling, regulatory compliance, and operation of Class I, II, V, and VI UIC wells. Dyson manages permitting, testing, and … Continue reading Class I UIC Wells: Feasibility Phase Estimation of Injection Rate
The primary objective of this study was to probabilistically assess the spatial distribution of soil suction using the Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) technique. Under field conditions, it is almost impossible … Continue reading Soil Suction Dynamics in Vegetated Soil: From Deterministic to Probabilistic Analysis with Electrical ...
Over the last several years, the regulatory pendulum has swung so far back and forth that facilities that are covered by the Environmental Protection Agency’s Chemical Accident Prevention Provisions, otherwise … Continue reading Getting Knocked Out by the Pendulum the 2024 EPA RMP Rule Changes and ...
In our first Carbon Credit Series, we learned that there are two types of carbon markets: regulatory and voluntary. We covered the basics of the voluntary carbon market and shared … Continue reading SCS Engineers Carbon Credit Series: Cap and Trade Market
“Transitioning from “Grey to Green”: Nature-Based Solution Seawall for Coastal Protection” provides a model nature-based solution seawall that governments could construct where rising sea levels are threatening their coastal population. … Continue reading Transitioning from “Grey to Green”: Nature-Based Solution Seawall for Coastal Protection
