Effect of Climate Change and Sea Level Rise Along the Coastline of Mumbai in 2050-using MIKE 21
Abstract: Sea-level rise being one of the most significant effects of climate change have grabbed the attention of the world. Although the exact forecast of rise of sea level remains uncertain, many projections for high emission scenarios from individual studies were found much greater than likely range of 1 m of the 21st century SLR given in AR5 of IPCC. Moreover, due to the additional load from melt ice the Sea …

Security Challenges and Solutions in Wireless Sensor Networks: a Case study of Afghanistan
Abstract: Due to their capability to collect and relay data from locations without supervision, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have become essential for numerous contemporary applications (such as environmental monitoring, smart cities, and healthcare). However, the open and resource-constrained nature of WSNs makes them particularly vulnerable to security threats. This paper reviews the key security Issue faced by WSNs and the solutions proposed in recent literature. We examine the unique constraints of …
