Effects of post-fire logging on forest surface air temperatures in the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Effects of growth conditions on postharvest Botrytis infection in Gerbera - a nursery comparison [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Botrytis cinerea is one of the main postharvest problems in gerbera cut flowers. There are clear differences among growers in the percentage of flowers showing symptoms of Botrytis infection after harvest.

Microclimate in understories of a mango orchard and a degraded area in the Eastern Amazon

open access: yesRevista Ambiente & Água, 2018
Changes in land use alter regional microclimate. This study compared the microclimate in understories of a mango orchard and a degraded area in the municipality of Salinópolis, in the northeast of the Brazilian State Pará, eastern Amazon.

Comparing Various Designs of Bioretention for Rainwater Management and Microclimate Regulation: Implications for Residential Areas

open access: yesLand
Effective microclimate regulation and rainwater management have become critical challenges in residential environments. Bioretention (BR) facilities are widely applied low-impact development (LID) measures that provide co-benefits in runoff control and ...

Analysis of thermal field within an urban canyon with variable thermophysical characteristics of the building's walls. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In a typical urban configuration, a microclimatic analysis has been carried out. Using a CFD method, a N-S oriented urban street canyon, with a given H/W ratio, has been examined.

A Multidirectional Textile Interface for Remote Control Using Dynamic Area‐Based Capacitance Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Here, we present a textile, wearable capacitive interface enabling multidirectional remote control by dynamically modulating electrode overlap and spacing via a freely gliding upper electrode. A forearm‐mounted prototype drives robotic and media tasks with 12–15 ms latency, maintains < 0.8% drift after 500 cycles, and remains stably functional at 90 ...
