Tau-Herculid meteor shower on night 30/31 May, 2022, and properties of the meteoroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
A tau-Herculid meteor outburst or even a storm was predicted by several models to occur around 5~UT on 31~May, 2022 as a consequence of the break-up of comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 in 1995.

Xenoliths in meteorites: Insights into the dynamics of material exchange between asteroids

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A minor fraction of meteorites contains xenoliths, that is, clasts that were formed on a different parent body than that of the host lithology. The occurrence of xenoliths is direct evidence for the exchange of material between asteroids, including exchanges between asteroids from the carbonaceous (CC) and non‐carbonaceous (NC) reservoirs ...

The velocity of meteoroids

open access: yes, 2004
International audienceDetermining the velocity of meteoroids as they enter the Earth's atmosphere is very important since the value is fundamental in calculating the orbit of the meteoroid and hence eventually its origin.

Humidity‐driven shape morphing enhances fog harvesting in porous cactus spines

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Spine straightening and water collection during fog exposure in Turbinicarpus alonsoi. Summary Cacti develop spines instead of conventional leaves, which often serve as mechanical defence against herbivores. However, some cactus species grow porous and flexible spines, suggesting fundamentally different functions.

Earth Encounter Velocities For Interplanetary Meteoroids

open access: yes, 1996
The speed distribution of meteoroids encountering the Earth is shown to be similar for all meteoroid masses in the range 1 g to 10(-12)g. The speed distribution of interplanetary meteoroids encountering the Earth has usually been inferred from meteor ...

Water stable isotopes reveal the ecohydrological importance of stemflow infiltration for mature and juvenile European beech

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Field site and experimental set‐up with stemflow‐labelled European beech trees. Summary Stemflow of forest trees can contribute a significant fraction of water to forest's water fluxes; however, it is still unclear whether and to what extent trees and their neighbours use stemflow for water uptake and supply.

Physical characteristics of very small meteoroids

open access: yes, 2009
We have optically recorded faint meteors using a large aperture LLLTV (low light level television) system based on second generation image intensifiers.

Site‐Specific Functional Response of the Tibetan Plateau's Forests to Climate Change Over the Past 200 Years – A Tree‐Ring Isotope Perspective

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global warming challenges forest resilience on the Tibetan Plateau by disrupting tree's physiological adjustments. However, understanding the physiological adjustments between autotrophic and heterotrophic metabolism under shifting moisture regimes remains challenging.
