Electrospun fibrous sorbents for the removal of uranium and americium from aqueous media
Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers with tertiary amino functionalities are evaluated as adsorbents for U‐232 and Am‐241 in both simplified and complex (seawater) water matrices, highlighting their ability for efficient actinide removal. Abstract Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers containing tertiary amino functionalities were ...

The start of lightning: evidence of bidirectional lightning initiation
Lightning flashes are known to initiate in regions of strong electric fields inside thunderstorms, between layers of positively and negatively charged precipitation particles.

ABSTRACT This article builds on scholarship about gentrifying foodscapes by exploring public debates around a grocery store that opened in the Junction Triangle, a predominately white, mixed income neighborhood in Toronto, Canada. Shortly after the completion of a new condominium development, Metro Inc. decided to open their discount chain, Food Basics,

Abstract Measuring vertical velocity is crucial for improving our understanding of deep convection. The Convective Core Observations through MicrOwave Derivatives in the trOpics (C2OMODO) mission aims to retrieve vertical velocity using ice‐sensitive microwave measurements acquired at two closely spaced time intervals.

Geostationary Lightning Mapper for GOES-R
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) is a single channel, near-IR optical detector, used to detect, locate and measure total lightning activity over the full-disk as part of a 3-axis stabilized, geostationary weather satellite system.

Unexpected Morphology and Dynamics of Lightning Continuing‐Current Channel as Seen in UV
Abstract Using a high‐speed imaging system operating in UV (290–370 nm) range at the Lightning Observatory in Gainesville (LOG), Florida, we observed, for the first time, what appeared to be lightning channel fragmentation starting <1 ms after the return‐stroke onset.

Plasmonic Lightning‐Rod Effect
How strongly does local curvature control plasmonic field enhancement? By isolating curvature effects in carefully designed plasmonic antennas, the plasmonic lightning‐rod effect is quantitatively established. An effective radius of curvature, smaller than the geometric radius, emerges from the induced charge distribution, providing a new framework for
