Earth's Energy Imbalance and Implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Improving observations of ocean heat content show that Earth is absorbing more energy from the sun than it is radiating to space as heat, even during the recent solar minimum.

Exposure to respirable desert dust entering indoors prompts quick oxidative-stress and inflammatory responses in the airways of chronic heart failure patients

open access: yesScientific Reports
A significant portion of the population is exposed to airborne PM10 levels exceeding WHO guidelines, particularly during desert dust events, which are increasing due to climate change.

The Realization of Multidirectional, Free‐Standing 3D Plasmonic Nanostructures via 3D Nanoprinting: A Case Study of Fractal Antennas

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Free‐standing plasmonic gold‐based fractal antennas are fabricated by 3D nanoprinting, employing focused electron beam induced deposition and an optimized purification method to remove carbon while conserving structural fidelity. Simulation and experiment show broadband plasmonic activity, including customizable polarizability, thereby paving the way ...

Characterization of Bacteria on Aerosols From Dust Events in Dakar, Senegal, West Africa

open access: yesGeoHealth, 2020
We identify bacteria types on collected dust samples in Dakar Senegal, a region that experiences frequent Saharan dust events. We use classical techniques to identify bacteria types from dust samples.

Urban pollution greatly enhances formation of natural aerosols over the Amazon rainforest

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
One of the least understood aspects in atmospheric chemistry is how urban emissions influence the formation of natural organic aerosols, which affect Earth’s energy budget.

Complementary Logic Driven by Dielectrophoretic Assembly of 2D Semiconductors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Scalable, parallel fabrication of complementary logic gates is demonstrated using electric‐field‐driven deterministic assembly of electrochemically exfoliated 2D n‐type MoS2 and p‐type WSe2 nanosheets. This strategy yields MoS2 and WSe2 transistors featuring average mobilities of 4.3 and 3.0 cm2 V−1 s−1, respectively, and on/off ratios of > 104 ...

Global distribution of particle phase state in atmospheric secondary organic aerosols

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Secondary organic aerosols (SOA) are a large source of uncertainty in our current understanding of climate change and air pollution. The phase state of SOA is important for quantifying their effects on climate and air quality, but its global distribution

Controlled Movement of Soft Actuators using Multi‐Responsive Microgel Arrays and Microcirculatory Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microscale hydrogels (microgels) feature improved mass transport characteristics supportive of fast actuation and chemical tunability amenable to programmed stimuli response. A unique soft actuator architecture is realized by encapsulating microgels in soft microcirculatory systems which enable the convenient delivery of liquid stimuli for powering and

Pyrogenic iron: The missing link to high iron solubility in aerosols

open access: yesScience Advances, 2019
Air pollution creates high Fe solubility in pyrogenic aerosols, raising the flux of biologically essential Fe to the oceans. Atmospheric deposition is a source of potentially bioavailable iron (Fe) and thus can partially control biological productivity ...
