Monitoring and Forecasting in Construction Projects Using Time Buffer
Abstract: The key to project management is effective performance monitoring and forecasting. The existing methods using input- output cash flow, earned value, etc. do not differentiate between work done on the critical path and work done on non-critical paths. Such methods mask the real situation and mislead the project team because progress on one path often compensate for the delay in other. The paper proposes a more effective method to facilitate …

Rising Temperatures and Surface Mass Loss in Greenland: Implications for Regional Glacier Dynamics and Global Sea Level Rise
Abstract: In Greenland, the ice sheet serves as one of the strongest indicators of global climate change, with consistently rising temperatures driving it toward an even more negative mass balance. Over the last two decades, warmer conditions have exacerbated surface melting, darkened ice, and resulted in feedback stimulating further loss. This study assesses how those temperature trends—particularly during summer peak months—have impacted the stability of Greenland's ice, and then, more importantly, …
