Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...

Exploring controls on rainfall–runoff events: spatial dynamics of event runoff coefficients in Iran
Hydrological Sciences Journal, 2023 This study investigates the controls that influence the spatial variability of event runoff coefficients (RCs) based on the comparative hydrology concept. We analysed 18 468 storm events in 963 Iranian catchments ranging in size from 101 to 8467 km2. The mean RCs vary spatially due to long-term hydro-climate conditions and other catchment descriptors ...

Errors and uncertainties in microwave link rainfall estimation explored using drop size measurements and high-resolution radar data [PDF]
, 2010 Microwave links can be used for the estimation of path-averaged rainfall by using either the path-integrated attenuation or the difference in attenuation of two signals with different frequencies and/or polarizations.

Uncertainty assessment of rainfall simulator uniformity coefficient [PDF]
, 2014 In the past sixty years several methods for the assessment of rainfall distribution over the surface has developed, but the method proposed by Christiansen is mostly used. Depending on the type of simulator, type of the nozzle and the size of a surface, Christiansen’s coefficient varie from 0.6 to 0.95.
