Journal ArticleDOI
Changing the urban design of cities for health: The superblock model
Natalie Mueller,David Rojas-Rueda,Haneen Khreis,Marta Cirach,David Andres,Joan Ballester,Xavier Bartoll,Carolyn Daher,Anna Deluca,Cynthia Echave,Carles Milà,Sandra Marquez,Joan Palou,Katherine Pérez,Cathryn Tonne,Mark Stevenson,Salvador Rueda,Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen +17 more
TL;DR: The Barcelona Superblocks were estimated to help reduce harmful environmental exposures while simultaneously increase PA levels and access to green space, and thereby provide substantial health benefits, and are expected for other cities that face similar challenges of environmental pollution, climate change vulnerability and low PA levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fitting and Goodness-of-Fit Test of Non-Truncated and Truncated Power-Law Distributions
Anna Deluca,Álvaro Corral +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, Clauset, Shalizi, and Newman have proposed a systematic method to find over which range (if any) a certain distribution behaves as a power law, but their method has been found to fail, in the sense that true (simulated) power-law tails are not recognized as such in some instances, and then the power law hypothesis is rejected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scientific Challenges of Convective-Scale Numerical Weather Prediction
Jun-Ichi Yano,Michał Z. Ziemiański,M. J. P. Cullen,Piet Termonia,Jeanette Onvlee,Lisa Bengtsson,Alberto Carrassi,Richard Davy,Anna Deluca,Suzanne L. Gray,Víctor Homar,Martin Kohler,S. O. Krichak,Silas Michaelides,Vaughan T. J. Phillips,Pedro M. M. Soares,Andrzej A. Wyszogrodzki +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical weather prediction (NWP) models are increasing in resolution and becoming capable of explicitly representing individual convective storms, but we do not have sufficient theoretical understanding about this weather regime to make full use of these NWPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Universality of rain event size distributions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare rain event size distributions derived from measurements in climatically different regions, which find to be well approximated by power laws of similar exponents over broad ranges.
