Recent observational analysis reveals the central role of three cloud types, congestus, stratiform, and deep-convective cumulus clouds, in the dynamics of large scale convectively coupled Kelvin waves, westward propagating 2-day waves, and the Madden–Julian oscillation. Recently, a systematic model convective parametrization highlighting the dynamic role of the three cloud types has been develo...

Continuous carbon fiber polymer–matrix composites in unprecedented antiferroelectric coupling, as enabled by stacking composites with positive value (up to 400) and negative value (down to -600) of the electric permittivity, provide exceptionally high through-thickness permittivity up to 78,000 (B2.0 MHz), corresponding to a capacitance of 370 lF/m. The high capacitance is consistent with the e...

The effects of field-evaporation rate on the quantitative chemical analysis of materials by atom-probe field-ion microscopy are considered. Examples of erroneously high measured values of the Ti concentration in Mo-1.0 at.% Ti and Mo-1.0 at.% Ti-0.08 at.% Zr (TZM) alloys are presented and the cause is shown to have been due to a high field-evaporation rate. The basic arguments used to explain t...

Conventional water resources of good quality are scarce especially in arid and semiarid regions. The salinization of soils and water places is a substantial constraint of crop productivity. The mixed application of fresh water along with seawater is becoming a common practice by the farmers near sea sides in the developing countries. Seawaters contain beneficial nutrients that can be useful for...

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of evaporation and condensation on the underfloor space of Japanese detached houses. In this underfloor space, natural ventilation is applied. A typical Japanese wooden detached house is raised 0.3–0.5 m over an underfloor space made of concrete. The bottom of the underfloor space is usually paved with concrete, and the ceiling whi...

evaporation from the soil surface has an important role in the water balance model in nature, so that the major part of rain fall and irrigation water in arid and semi-arid regions is lost via evaporation from the soil surface. in such areas, there are some regions with high water table and because of evaporation from the soil surface, salts accumulation also occur in the soil surface. so evapo...

To prepare lomustine-iohexol thermosensetive compound liposomes, and evaluate the properties and in vitro release behaviors of two drugs enveloped. Lomustine-iohexol thermosensetive compound liposomes were prepared by reverse evaporation method, HPLC assays for determination of lomustine and iohexol in vitro were developed, and their release property was studied by using dislysis method. The me...

Objective:Platycladus orientalis or Thuja orientalis is a native plant of Iran different parts of which are used in the treatment of various diseases such as: gout, rheumatoid arthritis, common cold, cough, bronchitis, asthma, high blood pressure and hormonal disorders like hirsutism and baldness. Also, various organs of this species have been used as appetizer. The purpose of this study was to...

Evaporation is ubiquitous in nature. This process influences the climate, the formation of clouds, transpiration in plants, the survival of arctic organisms, the efficiency of car engines, the structure of dried materials and many other phenomena. Recent experiments discovered two novel mechanisms accompanying evaporation: temperature discontinuity at the liquid–vapour interface during evaporat...
