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 ...

Investigate the Difference of Cooling Effect between Water Bodies and Green Spaces: The Study of Fuzhou, China

open access: yesWater, 2022
The urban heat island (UHI) effect will persist for a long time and influence human health, energy consumption, and future urban planning. Understanding the cooling effect of water bodies and green spaces can help alleviate the frequency of extreme ...

The effect of cooling prior to and during exercise on exercise performance and capacity in the heat: a meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Exercise is impaired in hot, compared to moderate, conditions. The development of hyperthermia is strongly linked to the impairment and as a result, many different strategies have been investigated to combat this. This meta-analysis focused on one of the

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

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

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.

Effect of Mesh Topologies to Predict Cooling Effect on Evaporative Cooling Duct

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2021
Abstract This paper examines the effect of different mesh types on a numerical study of evaporative cooling in the chimney. This research is a follow-up study from previous research. The test specimen used is an evaporative chimney design with the addition of a nozzle arrangement in it.

Critical review on the cooling effect of urban blue-green space: A threshold-size perspective

open access: yes, 2020
The cooling effect of blue-green space has been recognized as a promising approach to mitigate the urban heat island (UHI), while the quantitative role (threshold-size for cooling) is still uncertain.

Mitigation of heat island effect by green stormwater infrastructure: a comparative study between two diverse green spaces in Nanjing

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionStudies have shown that green spaces and water bodies can alleviate heat island effects. However, uncertainty remains regarding the characteristics and influence of Green Stormwater Infrastructures (GSIs) on the cooling effects under ...
