This paper proposes a novel method to estimate rainfall intensity by analyzing the sound of raindrops.An innovative device for collecting acoustic data was designed, capable of blocking ambient noise in rainy environments.The device was deployed in real rainfall conditions during both the monsoon season and non-monsoon season to record raindrop sou
Bathroom Magneto-optical materials have been proposed as promising candidates for an active control of the directionality of nanoscale heat radiation.Here, we discuss the possibility to rectify nanoscale radiative heat fluxes by means of non-reciprocal surface waves and propose a nanoscale heat flux rectifier or diode which can be controlled active
We investigate the role of information exposure in shaping attitudes and behaviors related to the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic and whether baseline political affiliation and news diet mediate effects.In December 2020, we randomly assigned 5,009 U.S.adults to nine brief text-based segments related to the dynamics of the pandemic and the safety of
The error from three different surveying techniques- level, hand-held barometer, and hand-held GPS-were compared in terms of accuracy and cost Lab Coats effectiveness for hydrogeological studies by surveying a four-kilometer circuit within the campus of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.The polygon was surveyed once with the level and the
