Transepidermal Water Loss

2020
Measurement of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is widely used to characterize the water barrier function of skin, both in physiological and pathological conditions, to perform predictive irritancy tests, and to evaluate the efficacy of therapeutic treatments on diseased skin.

Reversing heat conduction loss: Extracting energy from bulk water to enhance solar steam generation

, 2020
Interfacial solar steam generation offers a sustainable and affordable technology for seawater desalination and water treatment. During solar steam generation the temperature of the solar evaporation surface is generally higher than the bulk water, which

Respiratory water loss in camels

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1981
Rates of oxygen consumption and respiratory water loss were studied in camels that were exposed to desert heat and water deprivation. We found that changes in body temperature are accompanied by considerable changes in respiratory water loss.

Managing water loss

Journal AWWA, 2006
This article discusses a program that uses acoustic leakage monitoring linked to an automatic meter reading (AMR) system for information retrieval. The program was designed to link technologies to alleviate nonrevenue water (NRW). The article presents a case study of the system located in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, suburb of Connellsville.

Reverberation loss in shallow water

Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1995
Summary: In this paper, reverberation loss is considered as a basic physical quantity to describe shallow water reverberation, and reverberation loss versus time was calculated by using three models: the ray-based model, the WKBZ mode models with account taken and not taken of the effects of complex eigenvalues.

Water loss syndrome

1983
Reduction of body water in theory may arise from reduction in intake or increase in loss. In practice reduction in intake is complicated by continuing water loss, leading to increasing dryness or dessication. Dehydration is an appropriate term for the description of water deficiency, but this term is often used to describe the much commoner situation ...

Respiratory water loss in insects

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2002
The contribution of respiratory transpiration to overall water loss in insects is contentious. Misgivings concerning the importance of this route of water loss have arisen largely as a consequence of work on discontinuous gas exchange cycles (DGC). Most studies have found that respiratory water loss constitutes only a small proportion of total water ...

Effects of soil and water conservation techniques on crop yield, runoff and soil loss in Sub-Saharan Africa: A review

Agricultural Water Management, 2018
Soil erosion by water is one of the main causes of land degradation and reduced agricultural productivity in Africa leading to an estimated annual loss in crop yield of 280 million tons. To reverse this problem, various indigenous and recently introduced

Insensible water loss in infants

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1967
HE PHENOMENON of insensible loss of water was first noted by Sanetorius in 1614, when he suspended himself from one arm of a beam balance and observed a progressive weight loss2 He conceived the name "perspiratio insensiblis" for the insensible, or evaporative, water loss that occurs through the skin and lungs.

Water Loss—Cuticular

1977
There are several avenues for water loss from arthropods: the general cuticle, the respiratory surfaces via the spiracles (if these are present), the excretory system (of which the hind gut is usually but not always a part) and the mouth, through which material from the salivary glands and part of the alimentary canal may be discharged.
