Hydration Fingerprints: A Reproducible Protocol for Accurate Water Uptake in Anion-Exchange Membranes [PDF]
MembranesAnion-exchange membranes (AEMs) not only enable the fabrication of catalyst-coated membranes without precious metals but are also projected to achieve a technology-readiness level (TRL) suitable for industrial deployment before the end of this decade ...

Enhancement of Water Uptake in Composite Superabsorbents Based on Carboxymethyl Cellulose Through Porogen Incorporation and Lyophilization [PDF]
GelsCarboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (CMC)-based superabsorbents are promising materials for the development of agricultural matrices aimed at water management and slow-release fertilizer production. However, an increase in the CMC content tends to reduce

Global Heat Uptake by Inland Waters [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 AbstractHeat uptake is a key variable for understanding the Earth system response to greenhouse gas forcing. Despite the importance of this heat budget, heat uptake by inland waters has so far not been quantified. Here we use a unique combination of global‐scale lake models, global hydrological models and Earth system models to quantify global heat ...

The Role of Aquaporins in Root Water Uptake [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2002 The capacity of roots to take up water is determined in part by the resistance of living tissues to radial water flow. Both the apoplastic and cell-to-cell paths mediate water transport in these tissues but the contribution of cell membranes to the latter path has long been difficult to estimate. Aquaporins are water channel proteins that are expressed

Mapping quantitative trait loci for water uptake of rice under aerobic conditions
Plant Production Science, 2020 Root development in rice (Oryza sativa L.) plays a key role in water uptake (WU) and water use efficiency (WUE) in water-saving technologies such as aerobic cultivation.
