How extreme is an extreme climatic event to a subarctic peatland springtail community?
Extreme climate events are increasing in frequency and duration and may directly impact belowground foodwebs and the activities of component soil organisms. The soil invertebrate community, which includes keystone decomposers, might respond to these newly induced soil microclimate conditions by shifts in density, species composition, spatial patterning and/or functional traits. To test if and h...
متن کاملTunable superomniphobic surfaces for sorting droplets by surface tension.
We utilized tunable superomniphobic surfaces with flower-like TiO2 nanostructures to fabricate a simple device with precisely tailored surface energy domains that, for the first time, can sort droplets by surface tension. We envision that our methodology for droplet sorting will enable inexpensive and energy-efficient analytical devices for personalized point-of-care diagnostic platforms, lab-o...
متن کاملSurface Chemistry and Extreme-Pressure Lubricant Properties of Dimethyl Disulfide
The growth kinetics of a film formed by the thermal decomposition of dimethyl disulfide on an iron foil are measured using a microbalance where the growth kinetics are parabolic (film thickness X varies with time as X2 ∝ t) at high reaction temperatures and pressures, indicating that it is limited by diffusion through the film. The activation energy for this process is 54.5 ( 0.5 kcal/mol. The ...
متن کاملExtreme Glacial Legacies: A Synthesis of the Antarctic Springtail Phylogeographic Record
We review current phylogeographic knowledge from across the Antarctic terrestrial landscape with a focus on springtail taxa. We describe consistent patterns of high genetic diversity and structure among populations which have persisted in glacial refugia across Antarctica over both short (10 Mya) timescales. Despite a general concordance of results among species, we explain why location is impo...
متن کاملTransparent, flexible, superomniphobic surfaces with ultra-low contact angle hysteresis.
See-through surfaces: High transparency is required to use superomniphobic surfaces, which can be self-cleaning, stain-proof, anti-bio-fouling, drag-reducing, or anti-fogging, for smartphone screens, eye glasses, windshields, or flat panel displays. A spray-based method has now been developed that can fabricate transparent, flexible, and highly superomniphobic surfaces. HD=hexadecane.
