ABSTRACT This study investigates the thermal performance of innovative biphilic boiling surfaces designed for CPU cooling applications using a two‐phase closed thermosyphon (TPCT) system. The surfaces were fabricated by applying composite coatings—comprising epoxy resin and diatomite particles functionalized with APTES and PFOTS silanes— onto Al1050 ...

Abstract Agricultural soils are sources of nitrous oxide (N2O) and, under prolonged saturation, methane (CH4)—two potent greenhouse gases (GHGs). Soil management, field topography, and climate all influence GHG emissions, yet their interactions are not well understood.

Facilitating new livelihoods to promote peatland restoration in Indonesia - what are the challenges for ensuring sustainable and equitable livelihood transitions? [PDF]
Much of the peatland in Central Kalimantan is highly degraded because it has been cleared and drained over the last 30–40 years. Degraded peatland is highly susceptible to burning and oxidation and contributes 30–60 % of the annual greenhouse gas ...

Transient characteristics of a grooved water heat pipe with variable heat load [PDF]
The transient characteristics of a grooved water heat pipe were studied by using variable heat load. First, the effects of the property variations of the working fluid with temperature were investigated by operating the water heat pipe at several ...

Abstract Effective management of pig slurry in semi‐arid settings is critical to protect soils and aquifers. This study integrates multi‐profile electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) compiled into stitched 3D volumes with a calibration based on modified Archie's law derived from laboratory resistivity–moisture tests to obtain semi‐quantitative soil ...

More field-based carbon monitoring of tropical peatland restoration is urgently needed: findings from a systematic literature review [PDF]
The tropical peatland degradation crisis in Southeast Asia has triggered a surge in peatland restoration activity to reduce carbon emissions caused by biological oxidation of dry peat and recurrent peat fires.

Determining the effect of drying time on phosphorus solubilization from three agricultural soils under climate change scenarios [PDF]
Climate projections for the future indicate that the United Kingdom will experience hotter, drier summers and warmer, wetter winters, bringing longer dry periods followed by rewetting.

Dominant Role of Soil Moisture Regulating Vegetation Water Content During Flash Drought Evolution
Abstract Increasing flash drought exposure raises global concerns regarding terrestrial ecosystem responses. We investigate the effect of concurrent and past rootzone soil moisture (SM) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) on vegetation optical depth (VOD), a satellite‐based proxy of vegetation‐water content, during flash drought evolution.
