Thermoresponsive Liquid Crystalline Polymer Coatings Programmed by Field‐Induced Topological Defects for Tunable Optical and Topographical Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Resonant standing waves generate large‐area lattices of liquid‐crystal topological defects that are permanently encoded into polymer coatings by photopolymerization. The preserved director architecture produces thermally reconfigurable surface topographies while maintaining programmable optical functionality, demonstrating a scalable strategy for ...

Ground Water Whirls

Groundwater, 2004
Abstract Numerical experiments with steady‐state ground water flow models show that spiraling flow lines occur in layered aquifers that have different anisotropic horizontal hydraulic conductivities in adjacent layers. Bundles of such flow lines turning in the same direction can be referred to as ground water whirls.

Biodiversity in ground waters

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1993
Despite the importance of ground waters in the global water cycle, their ecology and biodiversity have only recently received attention. Three areas are currently being studied: (I ) the origin and colonization ground ground waters, (2) the adaptation of animals to the subterranean environment, and (3) the role of ecotone between surface and ground ...
