The relationship between local scalp skin temperature and cutaneous perfusion during scalp cooling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Cooling the scalp during administration of chemotherapy can prevent hair loss. It reduces both skin blood flow and hair follicle temperature, thus affecting drug supply and drug effect in the hair follicle. The extent to which these mechanisms contribute

The Value of a Decrease in Temperature by One Degree Celsius of the Regional Microclimate—The Cooling Effect of the Paddy Field

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
In the face of climate change, extreme climates are becoming more frequent. There were severe droughts in Taiwan in 2020, 2014–2015, and 2002. In these years, the paddy fields were kept fallow to save water and transfer agricultural water to non ...

Contrasting Roles of a Large Alpine Lake on Tibetan Plateau in Shaping Regional Precipitation During Summer and Autumn

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Lakes have important influence on local temperature and precipitation and are also regulators of regional climate. Using satellite and climate reanalysis datasets and a regional weather research forecasting (WRF) model, we carried out two WRF sensitivity

Laser Cooling of two trapped ions: Sideband cooling beyond the Lamb-Dicke limit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We study laser cooling of two ions that are trapped in a harmonic potential and interact by Coulomb repulsion. Sideband cooling in the Lamb-Dicke regime is shown to work analogously to sideband cooling of a single ion.

Atmospheric teleconnection mechanisms of extratropical North Atlantic SST influence on Sahel rainfall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Extratropical North Atlantic cooling has been tied to droughts over the Sahel in both paleoclimate observations and modeling studies. This study, which uses an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) coupled to a slab ocean model that simulates this ...

Quantum Description of Nuclear Spin Cooling in a Quantum Dot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We study theoretically the cooling of an ensemble of nuclear spins coupled to the spin of a localized electron in a quantum dot. We obtain a master equation for the state of the nuclear spins interacting with a sequence of polarized electrons that allows
