The thermal dependence of locomotor performance capacity, particularly speed and endurance, in vertebrate ectotherms is examined. Most studies have found an optimal speed for performance at relatively high body temperatures, close to upper lethal limits. These performance capacities decrease markedly at low body temperatures and may be compensated by increments in aggressive or evasive behavior...

In this paper, the temperature dependence of some characteristics of cylindrical gate-all-around Si nanowire field effect transistor (GAA-Si-NWFET) is investigated to representing the temperature nano-sensor structures and improving their performance. Firstly, we calculate the temperature sensitivity of drain-source current versus the gate-source voltage of GAA-Si-NWFET to propose the temperatu...

The hydrophobic effect is the main driving force in protein folding. One can estimate the relative strength of this hydrophobic effect for each amino acid by mining a large set of experimentally determined protein structures. However, the hydrophobic force is known to be strongly temperature dependent. This temperature dependence is thought to explain the denaturation of proteins at low tempera...

Poplawsky, Wei Guo, Naba Paudel, Amy Ng, Karren More, Donovan Leonard & Yanfa Yan Nature Communications 7:12537 doi: 10.1038/ncomms12537 (2016); Published 27 Jul 2016; Updated 2 Sep 2016 In Fig. 6 of this article, the division between the zincblende and wurtzite phases is misplaced in the low temperatur...

A mathematical model of the processes involved in carbon metabolism is described that predicts the influence of temperature on the growth of plants. The model assumes that the rate of production of dry matter depends both on the temperature and the level of nonstructural carbohydrate. The level of nonstructural carbohydrate is determined by the rates of photosynthesis, growth, and maintenance r...

We apply a different version of the density functional theory, given by Pizio, Patrykiejew, and Sokolowski [J. Chem. Phys. 121, 11957 (2004)], for a nonuniform restricted primitive model of an electrolyte solution to evaluate the temperature dependence of the capacitance of an electric double layer. We show that this theory is capable of reproducing the computer simulation data at a quantitativ...
