Assessment of soil erosion in olive orchards (Olea europaea L.) under cover crops management systems in the tropical region of Brazil [PDF]
In the tropics, water erosion is one of the most important factors leading to the degradation and deterioration of agricultural land. Olive orchards have a low canopy coverage, especially during the first years after planting, due to the low density of ...

Water Losses During Technical Snow Production: Results From Field Experiments
Alpine as well as Nordic skiing tourism strongly depend on the production of machine-made snow for the timely opening of the winter season. However, it is likely that sublimation, evaporation, wind drift, and the discharge of unfrozen water to the ground

Water loss from terrestrial planets orbiting ultracool dwarfs: implications for the planets of TRAPPIST-1 [PDF]
Ultracool dwarfs (UCD) encompass the population of extremely low mass stars (later than M6-type) and brown dwarfs. Because UCDs cool monotonically, their habitable zone (HZ) sweeps inward in time.

Cutaneous Water Loss in Reptiles [PDF]
Cutaneous and respiratory evaporation were compared in five species of reptiles at 23°C. There seemed to be a clear correlation between water loss and aridity of the animal's habitat, total evaporation from the desert lizard Sauromalus obesus being about 5 percent of that from the crocodilian Caiman ...

Enhancing the performance of Xanthan gum in water-based mud systems using an environmentally friendly biopolymer [PDF]
Xanthan gum is commonly used in drilling fluids to provide viscosity, solid suspension, and fluid-loss control. However, it is sensitive to high temperatures and not tolerant of field contaminants. This paper presents an experimental study on the effects
