Capillary interception of floating particles by surface-piercing vegetation.
Surface-piercing vegetation often captures particles that flow on the water surface, where surface tension forces contribute to capture. Yet the physics of capillary capture in flow has not been addressed. Here we model the capture of floating particles by surface-piercing collectors at moderately low Reynolds numbers (Re<10). We find a trade-off between the capillary force, which increases wit...
متن کاملGrassy Silica Nanoribbons and Strong Blue Luminescence
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is one of the key materials in many modern technological applications such as in metal oxide semiconductor transistors, photovoltaic solar cells, pollution removal, and biomedicine. We report the accidental discovery of free-standing grassy silica nanoribbons directly grown on SiO2/Si platform which is commonly used for field-effect transistors fabrication without other p...
متن کاملInterception Patterns
Developing applications that support evolution in a seamless way is not an easy task; in an early design stage, some concepts may be confused or some potential functionality not foreseen, resulting in bad separations of concerns. In this kind of designs, future changes may imply huge modifications if a highquality object-oriented model is the desired product. In theory, object oriented programm...
متن کاملCarbon and nitrogen losses by surface runoff following changes in vegetation.
Rainfall simulation experiments were conducted on annual grassland and coastal sage scrub hillslopes to determine the quantities of C and N removed by surface runoff in sediment and solution. Undisturbed coastal sage scrub soils have very high infiltration capacities (> 140 mm h(-1)), preventing the generation of surface runoff. Trampling disturbance to the sage scrub plots dramatically reduced...
متن کاملNutrient Stocks in Tasmanian Vegetation and Approximate Losses Due to Fire
Previously published data on the mass and concentration of major nutrients in Tasmanian vegetation types are presented in common units. The losses of nutrients in intensely hot wild-fires occurring once or twice a century are calculated and used to estimate losses in more frequent but less intense fires. Potential losses from consumed foliage and litter and from erosion and leaching of ash post...
