Climate-impacting contrails need ice (super-)saturation to persist longer than a few minutes. However, this simple criterion cannot be easily applied for the prediction of persistent contrails. The current weather forecast models, which lack humidity data assimilation in upper troposphere, have difficulties coping with enormous variability and sharp gradients relative field. Thus, supersaturati...

The Turán function ex(n, F ) of a graph F is the maximum number of edges in an F -free graph with n vertices. The classical results of Turán and Rademacher from 1941 led to the study of supersaturated graphs where the key question is to determine hF (n, q), the minimum number of copies of F that a graph with n vertices and ex(n, F ) + q edges can have. We determine hF (n, q) asymptotically when...

Abstract Water vapor supersaturation in the atmosphere is produced a variety of ways, including lifting parcel or via isobaric mixing parcels. However, irrespective mechanism production, water has typically been modeled as Gaussian distribution. In current theoretical and numerical study, nature by processes explored. The results from large eddy simulation model reveal distribution supersaturat...

The size and shape of a surfactant aggregate could be altered by using supersaturation like in crystal growth, rather than applying common laws that drive surfactant aggregate formation.

Prednisolone (10 mg PO q24h) or placebo was administered to healthy cats for 2 weeks in a masked, placebo-controlled, crossover-design study, and 24-hour urine samples were collected. When cats received prednisolone, 24-hour urine pH was lower and 24-hour urine excretion of creatinine, magnesium, phosphate, and potassium was higher than when cats received placebo. No significant difference was ...

Over 59 generations, a strain of rats has been inbred to maximize urine calcium excretion. The rats now excrete eight to 10 times as much calcium as controls. These rats uniformly form calcium phosphate (apatite) kidney stones and have been termed genetic hypercalciuric stone-forming (GHS) rats. The addition of a common amino acid and oxalate precursor, hydroxyproline, to the diet of the GHS ra...
