Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Quantifying heat and mass exchanges processes of plant leaves is crucial for detailed understanding of dynamic plant-environment interactions. The two main components of these processes, convective heat transfer, and transpiration, are inevitably coupled

Non-symmetric responses of leaf onset date to natural warming and cooling in northern ecosystems
PNAS Nexus, 2023 Abstract The northern hemisphere has experienced regional cooling, especially during the global warming hiatus (1998–2012) due to ocean energy redistribution. However, the lack of studies about the natural cooling effects hampers our understanding of vegetation responses to climate change.

Aircraft systems architecting: a functional-logical domain perspective [PDF]
, 2016 Presented is a novel framework for early systems architecture design. The framework defines data structures and algorithms that enable the systems architect to operate interactively and simultaneously in both the functional and logical domains.

From Food to Power: Hydrogel Thermoelectrics for Ingestible Electronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We introduce a fully edible thermoelectric–electrochromic platform that harvests heat from food and converts it into a visible color change. N‐type and p‐type hydrogel thermoelectric generators connected in series power anthocyanin‐based electrochromic displays, demonstrating the feasibility of safe, biodegradable, ingestible systems for on‐food ...

Impact of Tree Leaf Area Density on Cooling and Ventilation of an Urban Neighborhood
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023 Abstract The impact of trees during heat waves can be diverse, as their interaction with their surroundings depends on several parameters that modify shading, ventilation potential and transpiration rate. A multiscale coupled model is presented that allows the detailed analysis of the local impact of vegetation as a mitigation measure ...

Effects of post-fire logging on forest surface air temperatures in the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon, USA [PDF]
, 2010 Following stand-replacing wildfire, post-fire (salvage) logging of fire-killed trees is a widely implemented management practice in many forest types. A common hypothesis is that removal of fire-killed trees increases surface temperatures due to loss of ...

Deciphering Small Molecule Diffusion Parameters Across Light Responsive Polymersome Membranes
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Light‐responsive polymersomes bearing donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) enable programmable control over small‐molecule transport across synthetic membranes. By systematically varying DASA density, an optimal functionalization regime is identified that maximizes light‐gated permeability.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 In a rapidly changing climate, alpine plants may persist by adapting to new conditions. However, the rate at which the climate is changing might exceed the rate of adaptation through evolutionary processes in long-lived plants.

Impact of plant shoot architecture on leaf cooling: a coupled heat and mass transfer model [PDF]
Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2013 Plants display a range of striking architectural adaptations when grown at elevated temperatures. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana , these include elongation of petioles, and increased petiole and leaf angles from the soil surface.
