This manuscript examines the potential for ammonia accumulation in dew with subsequent release to the atmosphere during surface drying. The authors examine this process using a combination of laboratory and field dew chemistry measurements, measurement of dew amount, and atmospheric measurements of ammonia. The experiment is well designed and the results and conclusions are, for the most part, ...

The dew point is the temperature at which vapour begins to condense out of the gaseous phase. The deterministic relationship between the dew point and humidity is the basis for the industry-standard "chilled-mirror" dew point hygrometers used for highly accurate humidity measurements, which are essential for a broad range of industrial and metrological applications. However, these instruments h...

The shape of a dew droplet deposited on the mirror surface of a copper plate was measured accurately using an interference microscope that employed a phase-shift technique. The microscope was constructed by adding a piezoelectric transducer to an interference microscope. A simple method that uses a conventional speaker horn and an optical fibre cable was used to depress any speckle noise. The s...

the arthroscopic study of knee joint is of outstanding interest in assessment of knee complaints. the present article describes the results of arthroscopic examination of 100 patients (mean age 29.4 years 82% male) evaluated from 1996 to 1997 in imam khomeini hospital of tehran. sport injury was the most prevalent cause of referral (40%). the 2 most frequent complaints were knee pain (94%) and ...

introduction: scintigraphy has been considered as a useful tool in the assessment of meniscal tears. our objective was to assess the accuracy of single photon emission tomography (spect), using mri as the gold standard, in the diagnosis of meniscal tears. materials and methods: between january 2003 and february 2005, 45 patients were studied with spect and mri. results: the respective sensitivi...

Different techniques are used to model the relationship between temperatures, dew point and relative humidity. Gene expression programming is capable of modelling complex realities with great accuracy, allowing at the same time, the extraction of knowledge from the evolved models compared to other learning algorithms. We aim to use Gene Expression Programming for modelling of dew point. General...
