Marriages of Mathematics and Physics: A Challenge for Biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The human attempts to access, measure and organize physical phenomena have led to a manifold construction of mathematical and physical spaces. We will survey the evolution of geometries from Euclid to the Algebraic Geometry of the 20th century.

Increases in the temperature seasonal cycle indicate long-term drying trends in Amazonia

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
Strongly correlated changes between the amplitude of the seasonal cycle in temperature and the annual mean evaporative fraction indicate long-term drying in the Amazon, according to climate reanalyses and Earth System Model projections.

Lucretius or the philosophy of chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
A world view deriving from the objective knowledge acquired by the physical sciences is contrasted with the fashionable subjective philosophical view that all systems of thought are equally valid ways of structuring the universe.

Des fondements vers l’avant. Sur la rationalité des mathématiques et des sciences formalisées

open access: yesPhilosophia Scientiæ, 2005
Forward foundations. On the rationality of mathematics and of formalized sciences. — The failure of logicism for the question of foundations of mathematics invites us to consider this question under an epistemological point of view, in terms of ...

A social Beaufort scale to detect high winds using language in social media posts

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
People often talk about the weather on social media, using different vocabulary to describe different conditions. Here we combine a large collection of wind-related Twitter posts (tweets) and UK Met Office wind speed observations to explore the ...

Magnetic Field Energy Harvesting From Current-Carrying Structures: Electromagnetic-Circuit Coupled Model, Validation and Application

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Magnetic field energy harvesters (MFEHs) from current-carrying structures/conductors are usually modelled as decoupled electromagnetic and electrical systems.

Heatwave–blocking relation change likely dominates over decrease in blocking frequency under global warming

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2022
Extra-tropical continental summer heatwaves often occur under persistent anticyclones or blocking. Here we partition heatwave changes into contributions from blocking changes, heatwave–blocking relation change and mean temperature increase, under global ...

Integrating Science and Technology Libraries at Cornell

open access: yesIssues in Science and Technology Librarianship, 1999
Integrating science and technology libraries into a single unit involves identifying what is unique about each library, addressing user and staff concerns, establishing new communications patterns, encouraging staff participation in the change process ...

Heterostructures formed through abraded van der Waals materials

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Low-cost, mass-scalable production routes which preserve the quality of the single crystals are required to up-scale van der Waals materials. Here, the authors demonstrate an approach to realise a variety of functional heterostructures based on van der ...
