Simulation of Desiccant Cooling

open access: yes, 2017
Desiccant cooling system has been an attractive topic for study lately, due to its environmentally friendly nature. It also consume less electricity and capable to be operated without refrigerant. A simulation study was conducted using 1.5 m long ducting

Finding Mr. Right: Housing Quality Affects Male Mouse Attractiveness to Females, With Implications for Conservation Captive Breeding

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
Housing quality affects male mouse attractiveness to females ABSTRACT Females generally prefer mates with traits indicating low stress (e.g., large size; good health). In captivity, stress from suboptimal housing might therefore reduce male attractiveness.

Enhancing Hydrophobic Stability of Silicone Rubber Insulators Under High‐Voltage Direct Current Stress Through Optimised Nano‐Fumed Silica Surface Area: A Dynamic Drop Test Study

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The long‐term hydrophobic stability of silicone rubber (SiR) insulators is essential for their reliability in high‐voltage direct current (HVDC) applications. This study investigates the effect of nano‐silica fillers with varying specific surface areas (SSA = 120, 200 and 300 m2/g) and different concentrations of alumina trihydrate (ATH ...

Investigation of a novel liquid desiccant wheel cooling system [PDF]

open access: yes
The energy consumption in cooling and forced ventilation, especially in a hot and humid climate, is widely significant and concerning. Nevertheless, the growing demand for air conditioning even in temperate climates is causing a substantial increase in ...

Increased energetic cost of movement reduces reproductive output in zebrafish at different temperatures and water flow rates

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Locomotion consumes a large proportion of individual energy budgets and may impose energetic constraints on other fitness‐related traits particularly under variable environmental conditions.

Wood anatomical trait correlations with hydraulic efficiency and safety in an aseasonal wet tropical forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Xylem anatomy underpins the capacity of trees to transport water while avoiding hydraulic failure, shaping species performance and resilience to climate change. However, the specific ways anatomical traits underpin hydraulic trade‐offs in tropical forests remain debated.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
