Seasonal Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Soil Carbon Flux in the Vadose Zone of Sandy Land

Atmosphere
Soil CO2 emissions are critical for predicting terrestrial ecosystem feedbacks to climate change, yet significant knowledge gaps persist regarding carbon flux dynamics within the deep vadose zone and during freeze–thaw processes. In this study, the Mu Us

Visual Scale Factor for Speed Perception [PDF]

, 2010
Speed perception is an important task depending mainly on optic flow that the driver must perform continuously to control his/her vehicle. Unfortunately it appears that in some driving simulators speed perception is under estimated, leading into speed ...

Driving mechanisms for plate tectonics

Geofísica Internacional, 1973
Esta generalmente aceptada la idea de que el motor de la tectónica de placas sea algún tipo de convección térmica. La fuerza impelente puede aplicarse dentro de la placa, o bien puede transmitirse a la placa desde abajo.
