Mapping residual water fluoride levels and geological patterns in a rural semi-arid area of Brazil
Some areas of Brazil have natural sources of fluoride in their water supply. Identifying these areas is an important measure to guide oral health measures when implementing safe fluoride applications, either alone or in combination. The study aims to map

Identification, prediction and mitigation of sinkhole hazards in evaporite karst areas [PDF]
Sinkholes usually have a higher probability of occurrence and a greater genetic diversity in evaporite terrains than in carbonate karst areas. This is because evaporites have a higher solubility, and commonly a lower mechanical strength.

A MEMS‐integrated metamaterial filter enables continuous, low‐voltage spectral tuning in the long‐wavelength infrared (LWIR). The device employs extraordinary optical transmission in a dual suspended metasurface stack, where electrostatic actuation precisely controls the intermembrane air gap.

Assessment of the Impact Hazard of the Array Taking Into Account the Geological Features of the Structure of Electric Profiles [PDF]
The current geodynamic situation at the Tashtagol iron ore De- posit is considered. The impact hazard of the array was determined using electrometric coefficients obtained taking into account the geological struc- ture of the array.

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create

"Che tempo, che tempo": geology and environment in Max Frisch´s Der Mensch erscheint im Holozän [PDF]
Critical readings of Frischs Der Mensch erscheint im Holozän [Man in the Holo-cene] have tended to read its heterogeneous and inter-medial form as a code for the mental disintegration of its protagonist.

Modeling seismic wave propagation and amplification in 1D/2D/3D linear and nonlinear unbounded media
To analyze seismic wave propagation in geological structures, it is possible to consider various numerical approaches: the finite difference method, the spectral element method, the boundary element method, the finite element method, the finite volume ...

The adsorption of AsV on akaganeite nanorods was found to provide a magnetic signature. A change in the surface spin order gave rise to a second peak in the zero‐field cooled curve. AsIII adsorption does not provide any change in the magnetic behavior of the sorbent.
