Characterising City Scale Heat Climatology for Australian Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect in Australian cities peaks at night, intensifying under dry conditions, clear skies, increased solar radiation, and low wind speeds. Long‐term observations show that nighttime temperatures in major cities have warmed faster than their rural surroundings and future climate projections fail to capture this disparity ...

Jewelled Byzantine and Medieval Reliquaries of the True Cross: Peridots and Other Gemstones in Material and Symbolic Perspective

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
An interdisciplinary in situ study of jewelled reliquaries of the True Cross integrates gemmology and portable analytical techniques, revealing new evidence on the identification and symbolic role of peridots and other gemstones. ABSTRACT Jewelled crosses containing relics of the True Cross occupy a central position in the devotional, artistic and ...

Investigation into Triggered Star Formation by Radiative Driven Implosion [PDF]

, 2016
When massive stars form, they emit strong, hydrogen ionising radiation fields into their molecular cloud environment, forming HII regions. This is believed to be capable of inducing effects which can trigger further star formation through a process known

Cavitation on the tip of a fibre optic : from a single bubble to a bubble cloud

, 2018
Minimally-invasive surgeries rely heavily on the use of fibre optics to steer through small incisions on the body and deliver laser pulses to remove unwanted tissue. Laser-induced heating at the fibre tip leads to vaporisation and formation of cavitation

Uncertainty assessment for a novel optically shallow water radiometric acquisition platform

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel motorized platform, a custom‐built jet‐ski designed for acoustic and radiometric measurements in optically shallow coastal waters. This platform integrates in‐water radiometers with single‐beam and multi‐beam acoustic sensors, along with a suite of active and passive instruments (conductivity‐temperature‐depth, fluorescence,

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy in India: Insights from a Large Multicenter Clinical Cohort (Project PAIR‐PSP)

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare and devastating tauopathy with limited global data. Given India's large population, genetic diversity, and clinical heterogeneity, large multicenter datasets are crucial to enrich global understanding of PSP. Objective To characterize the demographic, clinical, and phenotypic profiles of a large

A Simple Model of the Energy Threshold for Snowball Chambers

Universe
Cloud and bubble chambers have historically been used for particle detection, capitalizing on supersaturation and superheating, respectively. Here, we present new results from a prototype snowball chamber, in which an incoming particle triggers the ...

Toward Efficient Computation of Heat and Mass Transfer Effects in the Continuum Model for Bubbly Cavitating Flows [PDF]

, 2001
The Rayleigh-Plesset equation is used extensively to model spherical bubble dynamics, yet it has been shown that it cannot correctly capture damping effects due to mass and thermal diffusion. Full single bubble models have been successfully used to study
