Observations, theory, and modeling of the differential accumulation of Antarctic megadunes

Antarctic megadunes are characterized by significant spatial differences in accumulation rate, with higher accumulation on the windward side and near-zero accumulation on the lee side. This leads to spatial differences in physical properties of snow and su ...

Long-term pan evaporation observations as a resource to understand the water cycle trend: case studies from Australia

Jed Oliver Kaplan

Acceleration of the global water cycle over recent decades remains uncertain because of the high inter-annual variability of its components. Observations of pan evaporation (E-pan), a proxy of potential evapotranspiration (ETp), may help to identify trends ...

ZrNO-Ag co-sputtered surfaces leading to E. coli inactivation under actinic light: Evidence for the oligodynamic effect

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sami Rtimi, Rosendo Sanjines, Michaël Bensimon, Mirela Pascu

This study reports visible light sensitive ZrNO and ZrNO-Ag polyester samples prepared by sputtering in an Ar/N-2/O-2 atmosphere leading to Escherichia coil bacterial inactivation. The bacterial inactivation by ZrNO avoids the increasing environmental conc ...

A Raman lidar to measure water vapor in the atmospheric boundary layer

Hubert van den Bergh, Marc Parlange, Eric Richard Pardyjak, Valentin Simeonov, Chad Higgins, Martin Froidevaux

A new multi-telescope scanning Raman lidar designed to measure the water vapor mixing ratio in the atmospheric boundary layer for a complete diurnal cycle with high resolution spatial (1.25 m) and temporal (1 s) resolutions is presented. The high resolutio ...

Antibacterial Ag-ZrN surfaces promoted by subnanometric ZrN-clusters deposited by reactive pulsed magnetron sputtering

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Rosendo Sanjines

Ag-ZrN films were deposited on polyester by direct current pulsed magnetron sputtering (from now on DCMSP) in Ar + N-2 atmosphere. ZrN on the polyester surface interacts with Ag leading to Ag-ZrN films. These composite films were more active in Escherichia ...
