[1] Subtropical humidity plays a critical role in the radiative balance of the planet, and there is a need for adequate description of the controls on water vapor distributions. This study tests whether an advection-condensation model, combined with Rayleigh distillation, can describe observed humidity and water vapor isotope ratios of the subtropical free troposphere. A field campaign, from 9 ...

Of the several thermal, mechanical and hydrological measurements being used to monitor the rockmass response in the Single Heater Test, electrical resistance tomography (ERT) is being used to monitor the movement of liquid water with a special interest in the movement of condensate out of the system. Images of resistivity change were calculated using data collected before, during and after the ...

O ur ability to develop advanced bioprocess control and optimization strategies is directly linked to the availability of relevant in situ sensors or real-time analytical instrumentation and, as such, was identified as a research funding priority by the National Science and Technology Council in 1995 (131). Demand for rapid monitoring techniques is being driven by • a need to build better proce...

OBJECTIVES Near-infrared spectroscopy monitors cerebral oxygen saturation. This parameter parallels jugular venous oxygen saturation and reflects the balance between cerebral oxygen supply and demand. Experience with near-infrared spectroscopy in univentricular physiology is limited. This study explores the relationship between cerebral oxygen saturation, jugular venous oxygen saturation, and o...

Abstract In the publication, saturation of surface a large size stamped articles made VT20 alloy with interstitial impurities and formation non-metallic compounds on it were investigated. The process gas in several directions depending external parameters: heating temperature, medium, holding time is analyzed.
