Field Deployable Fiber Bragg Grating Strain Patch for Long-Term Stable Health Monitoring Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2013
A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain patch specially adapted for long-term and high-strain applications has been developed and characterized. The design concept for the patch is based on a glass-fiber reinforced plastic (gfrp) carrier material.

Non-growing/growing season non-uniform-warming increases precipitation use efficiency but reduces its temporal stability in an alpine meadow

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
There are still uncertainties on the impacts of season-non-uniform-warming on plant precipitation use efficiency (PUE) and its temporal stability (PUEstability) in alpine areas.

Phase‐Sensitive Constant Temperature Anemometry

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2011
AbstractHot‐film measurements in bubbly flows provide time series that contain information about the liquid and the gas phase. Signal classification is required to disentangle the corresponding segments. The classification algorithms are prone to detection bias, which makes hot‐film measurements in two‐phase flows very difficult. We present a new phase‐

Carbon Use Efficiency and Its Temperature Sensitivity Covary in Soil Bacteria

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Soil microbes respond to environmental change by altering how they allocate carbon to growth versus respiration—or carbon use efficiency (CUE). Ecosystem and Earth System models, used to project how global soil C stocks will continue to respond to the ...

Encapsulation of FBG sensor into the PDMS and its effect on spectral and temperature characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is the most distributed type of fiber-optic sensors. FBGs are primarily sensitive to the effects of temperature and deformation. By employing different transformation techniques, it is possible to use FBG to monitor any physical

Highly Sensitive Multichannel Fano Resonance-Based Plasmonic Sensor for Refractive Index and Temperature Sensing Application

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
We propose a susceptible multichannel plasmonic sensor for sensing refractive index (RI) and temperature media working in the visible to near-infrared range.

Phylogenetic signal in amphibian sensitivity to copper sulfate relative to experimental temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The release of large quantities of chemicals into the environment represents a major source of environmental disturbance. In recent years, the focus of ecotoxicology has shifted from describing the effects of chemical contaminants on individual species ...

Why is temperature sensitivity important for the success of common respiratory viruses?

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, 2020
This review explores the idea that temperature sensitivity is an important factor in determining the success of respiratory viruses as human parasites. The review discusses several questions. What is viral temperature sensitivity?

Soil indigenous nutrients increase the resilience of maize yield to climatic warming in China

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
Climate warming leads to crop yield loss. Although investigations have shown the region-specific effect of climate warming on maize yield in China, the determinants of this region-specific effect are poorly known.

Long‐term collar deployment leads to bias in soil respiration measurements

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Accurate measurements of soil respiration (Rs) are critical for understanding how soil carbon will respond to environmental changes. However, a commonly used method for Rs measurements, the collar deployment method, may introduce artefacts that cause ...
