India, a world leader in wind-generated power, is likely to develop what will become the world's largest solar energy system. The first phase, being developed on a 23,000 acre site, is expected to be completed by 2016, and will pro...
In June 2010, when Voyager 1 was about 17 billion kilometers (about 11 billion miles) away from the sun, data from the Low Energy Charged Particle instrument began to show that the net outward flow of the solar wind was zero. That zero reading has continued since. The Voyager science tea...
The article discusses highlights of the April 2013 "Dynamic Structural Analysis of Trees Subject to Wind Loading and the Biomechanical Implications" series of workshops hosted by the Institute of Chartered Foresters (ICF) in England. The workshop sessions include dynamic measurement of tree movement, ...
However, in cognizance of the irregular availability of such incentives, there seems to exist a need for financial feasibility analysis of the wind farms. The study uses a stochastic method and a scenario approach to address this research question. The analysis considers the capital and operating ...
Pollen from wind-pollinated trees has traditionally been assumed to be abundant and to travel long distances, resulting in extensive gene flow. However, recent empirical work by Knapp et al., genetic analysis by Sork et al., and theoretical models by Satake and Iwasa conclude that short-...
