Impact of day/night time land surface temperature in soil moisture disaggregation algorithms [PDF]
, 2016 Since its launch in 2009, the ESA’s SMOS mission is providing global soil moisture (SM) maps at ~40 km, using the first L-band microwave radiometer on space.

The Global Warming Potential of Geoengineering via Radiative Cooling
Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.The cooling power of engineered radiative cooling materials is determined and compared to conventional construction and roofing materials and Earth's natural surfaces. Results show if 1% of Earth's surface are to be covered with state‐of‐the‐art radiative cooling materials the terrestrial radiative forcing would decrease by 1.61 W·m−2 (from 0.6 to −1 ...

Evolution of Urban Areas and Land Surface Temperature
2024 IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Machine Intelligence (CVMI)With the global population on the rise, our cities have been expanding to accommodate the growing number of people. The expansion of cities generally leads to the engulfment of peripheral areas. However, such expansion of urban areas is likely to cause increment in areas with increased land surface temperature (LST).

Facile Functionalization of Separator with an Amino Acid to Boost Li–S Battery Performance
Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.This study introduces a viable bio‐approach to functionalize conventional separators using leucine‐polyacrylic acid (Leu‐PAA) via the simple soaking method. This strategy synergistically improves polysulfide trapping, regulates lithium‐ion flux, and enhances thermal and mechanical stability, leading to excellent cycling stability.

Mapping evapotranspiration variability over a complex oasis-desert ecosystem based on automated calibration of Landsat 7 ETM+ data in SEBAL [PDF]
, 2019 Fragmented ecosystems of the desiccated Aral Sea seek answers to the profound local hydrologically- and water-related problems. Particularly, in the Small Aral Sea Basin (SASB), these problems are associated with low precipitation, increased temperature,

A New Global Climatology of Annual Land Surface Temperature [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2015 Land surface temperature (LST) is an important parameter in various fields including hydrology, climatology, and geophysics. Its derivation by thermal infrared remote sensing has long tradition but despite substantial progress there remain limited data availability and challenges like emissivity estimation, atmospheric correction, and cloud ...

A Convoy of Magnetic Millirobots Transports Endoscopic Instruments for Minimally‐Invasive Surgery
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The first electrocautery procedure performed by a team of millirobots (TrainBots) is presented. Enhanced with optimized feet, millirobots form a convoy to facilitate the collaborative transportation of wires and catheters through biological lumens, e.g. bile ducts. It opens up the possibility of using a team of mini‐robots in future endoscopic surgery.
