Which Gets Hotter, Land or Water? [PDF]

, 1999
This activity illustrates how dark land surfaces, light land surfaces and water all heat at different rates. Students determine whether land or water absorbs heat more quickly and how this difference affects weather and climate.

Activation‐Integrated and Memory‐Assisted Dynamic‐Latch Quantizer for Variation‐Tolerant and Low‐Energy Neuromorphic Computing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A memory‐assisted dynamic‐latch ADC integrating charge‐trap flash enables ultra‐low‐energy quantization and in‐ADC nonlinear activation for variation‐tolerant neuromorphic computing. Analog‐to‐digital converters (ADCs) remain the dominant area/energy bottleneck in neuromorphic computing (NC) systems.

The random-field specific heat critical behavior at high magnetic concentration: Fe(0.93)Zn(0.07)F2

, 1998
The specific heat critical behavior is measured and analyzed for a single crystal of the random-field Ising system Fe(0.93)Zn(0.07)F2 using pulsed heat and optical birefringence techniques.

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Body Temperature using Oral Mercury Thermometer in Comparison to Infrared Tympanic Thermometer

مجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2011
Background: Standard method for measuring body temperature has relied on oral site by using mercury thermometers (MT). Infrared tympanic thermometry (ITT), which measures the flow of heat from the surface of tympanic membranes and ear canal, is ...

Unraveling ovarian histology: The key morphological aspects that spur the development of the Fossa ovarii in equine

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The equine ovary exhibits unique structural and developmental features that distinguish it from those of other domestic species, including the presence of an ovulation fossa and an inversion of cortical and medullary layers. This study aimed to investigate the morphostructural development of the equine fetal ovary, with particular emphasis on ...

Effect of Cyclic Heat Exposure on the Growth Performance and Metabolism of Broilers Fed Palm Kernel Meal

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The aim of our study is to evaluate the interaction between HS and the incorporation of PKM in broiler chicken diets, as well as its effect on growth performance and metabolism. Based on the results obtained, PKM supplementation failed to mitigate the adverse effects of heat stress in broiler chickens. ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the
