Weather, EarlyView.The frequency of summer nights whose minimum temperature remains above a rarely exceeded threshold – such as the ‘Tropical Night’ 20°C requirement – provides one measure of climate warming. Unfortunately, relying on nocturnal temperature minima for this may select conditions when naturally ventilated thermometers, such as those housed within Stevenson ...

Wind tunnel measurement of flow and dispersion over urban area
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 Measurements of flow and dispersion over urban area model were conducted in the boundary layer wind tunnel in VZLU. Scale model of an industrial area with its residential neighborhood was equipped with ground-level emission source and the flow and ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 1, Page 46-55, February 2026.ABSTRACT The Japanese beetle (JB) Popillia japonica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) has been a significant invasive pest for over a century in North America. Several studies have reported that plants under direct sunlight are preferred and trap colour affects the number of beetles captured, indicating that visual stimuli influence JB behaviour. Despite this,

Experimental Investigation of Turbulence Promoters effect on Characteristics of Wake related to Linear Compressor Cascade [PDF]
International Journal of Advanced Design and Manufacturing Technology, 2014 In this paper, considering the importance of incoming flow turbulence intensity into combustion chamber, tripping wire effect on the flow wake has been experimentally investigated within a linear compressor cascade. To do this, two wires were implemented

Investigating the round air jet dynamics at low Reynolds numbers
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017 The laminar-turbulent transition in a round jet flowing from a cylindrical channel with the diameter of 3.2 mm was studied experimentally. In experiments, the range of Reynolds numbers determined by the mean-flow velocity was Re = Ud/v = 700-12000.

Influences of Turbulence Characteristic on the Dispersion Behavior of Droplets in the Spray Flame
Journal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2008 The authors investigated the effect of the turbulence of an air current on droplet dispersion in a spray flame. Wire meshes of different mesh sizes were inserted behind a two-fluid type nozzle each time to vary the air current turbulence characteristics,

Laminar Turbulent Transition in a Boundary Layer Subjected to Weak Free Stream Turbulence
Journal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008 For revealing the transition process in a flat plate boundary layer subjected to a weak free stream turbulence, flow visualization and hot-wire measurements were performed. A weak free stream turbulence was generated by a turbulence grid mounted upstream

Preschoolers' Scientific Curiosity and Inquiry Capabilities: An Ecological Research Approach
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 40-61, January 2026.ABSTRACT Existing tools for measuring scientific curiosity often fail to capture its multifaceted, dynamic nature—particularly in early childhood, where behaviors are context‐dependent, non‐verbal, and emergent. These challenges limit our ability to understand and support young children's scientific engagement.
