Bio-Based Renewable Additives for Anti-Icing Applications (Phase II) [PDF]
The performance and impacts of several agro-based anti-icers along with a traditional chloride-based anti-icer (salt brine) were evaluated. A statistical design of experiments (central composite design) was employed for developing anti-icing liquids ...

Diurnal Air–Surface Temperature Dynamics in Hong Kong: An Analysis Across Land Use and Climate Zones
Daytime and nighttime air temperature (T a) from automatic weather stations and land surface temperature (T s) derived from ASTER and Landsat 8–9 are used to examine the relationship between T a and T s. The spatial and statistical characteristics of T a − T s dynamics are further analysed across land use (LU) and local climate zones (LCZ).

Abstract This study critically analyses the main narratives surrounding the Atlantic blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) in the Lagoon of Venice. We used a mixed‐method approach, performing a qualitative discourse analysis on a sample of 68 textual sources to identify the narratives across two sectors in the management of the case study: media and politics,

This retrospective study analysed the etiology and imaging (radiographic/ultrasonographic) findings in 120 cats with high‐rise syndrome. Most affected cats were under 1 year old and fell from the third floor. The survival rate was 92.5%. Pulmonary contusions were the most frequent soft tissue injury, occurring in 45% of cases . ABSTRACT Background High‐
