Physics of Solid and Liquid Alkali Halide Surfaces Near the Melting Point

, 2005
This paper presents a broad theoretical and simulation study of the high temperature behavior of crystalline alkali halide surfaces typified by NaCl(100), of the liquid NaCl surface near freezing, and of the very unusual partial wetting of the solid ...

Space Climate Manifestation in Earth Prices - from Medieval England Up to Modern Usa [PDF]

, 2004
In this study we continue to search for possible manifestations of space weather influence on prices of agricultural products and consumables. We note that the connection between solar activity and prices is based on the causal chain that includes ...

Seasonal Predictability of Vapor Pressure Deficit in the western United States [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
Saturation vapor pressure deficit (VPD), a measure of the difference between how much moisture the atmosphere can hold versus how much is present, is highly correlated with the annual mean area burned by wildland fires in the western United States.

Response of rice to changing climatic condition: (II) Genotypic variation in growth responses to vapor pressure deficit [PDF]

, 2009
The vapor pressure deficit (VPD) can affect rice growth by affecting water status of the plants and/or thermal conditions of leaves or the canopy. Rice responses to increasing temperatures may also be altered by changes in VPD.

The Evolution of Mechanisms Driving the Stomatal Response to Vapor Pressure Deficit   [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2015
Abstract Stomatal responses to vapor pressure deficit (VPD) are a principal means by which vascular land plants regulate daytime transpiration. While much work has focused on characterizing and modeling this response, there remains no consensus as to the mechanism that drives it.

Dynamics of the Net Precipitation in China from 2001 to 2020

Remote Sensing
Net precipitation (NP) is the primary source of soil water essential for the functioning of vegetated ecosystems. By quantifying NP as the difference between gross precipitation and canopy interception evaporation, this study examined the dynamics of NP ...

Volatiles in protoplanetary disks [PDF]

, 2014
Volatiles are compounds with low sublimation temperatures, and they make up most of the condensible mass in typical planet-forming environments. They consist of relatively small, often hydrogenated, molecules based on the abundant elements carbon ...

Understanding the daily cycle of evapotranspiration: a method to quantify the influence of forcings and feedbacks [PDF]

, 2010
A method to analyze the daily cycle of evapotranspiration over land is presented. It quantifies the influence of external forcings, such as radiation and advection, and of internal feedbacks induced by boundary layer, surface layer, and land surface ...
