It must be noted that particularly close results can lead to misleading conclusions. Therefore, a subsequent detailed planning becomes inevitable. Furthermore, the methodical shortcomings of the resource and the environment and climate section must me mentioned. Here, quantitative information could be ...
Further, most Heat-Health Warning Systems (HHWS) are based on the outdoor climate only, which can lead to a misleading interpretation of the health effects and associated solutions. In order to identify severe heat, six factors need to be taken into account, including air temperature, heat ...
Nonetheless, the fractal dimension or shape factor index could not provide particle shape characteristics and the interaction with base fluids. Therefore, there is no perfect model to predict the thermal conductivity of various nanofluids accurately. Table 2 lists several popular models and numerical ...
A simple individual-based metric such as mean exposure is potentially misleading due to nonlinear adverse health impacts of summer heat. Evidence suggests that above a moderate threshold damage is an increasing convex function of temperature, i.e., a 1° temperature increase causes more damage at ...
I don't understand added-together SEER ratings for mulitiple individual pieces of equipment and in my opinion that would be a misleading tactic, perhaps intended as a sales gimmick. Give the manufacturer a call and let us know what they say. ...
for phytoplankton growth in each area, where both sea-ice melting and ocean surface warming played a critical role in stabilising and transporting micronutrients to the surface layer. Nevertheless, our assessment also showed that the relative importance of temperature extremes as a limiting factor for...
(Fig.4b). BI-1 is a conserved antiapoptotic protein that prevents ER stress-induced apoptosis62. BI-1 interacts, binds and suppresses IRE1α activity by canceling its endoribonuclease and kinase activity activity to promote cell survival63. As an ER stress pro-survival factor62, BI-1 ...
Measuring the heat load imposed on an animal using air temperature (dry bulb temperature; DBT) can be misleading (Mount, 1979, Sparke et al., 2001). A more useful measure is wet bulb temperature (WBT; Mount, 1979, Yousef and Johnson, 1985), which takes humidity into account (Sparke et...
Even during the day, the suggested cooling benefit from the dominance of evaporative cooling from waterbodies is somewhat misleading. A drawback of evapotranspirative cooling is that it increases atmospheric water vapour (humidity), which is a greenhouse gas (Oke, 1987). This applies to both gre...
HS is a serious heat-induced disease, and extremely high body temperature is the first damaging factor. Most of the diagnostic criteria in the published literature used elevation of core temperature (usually rectal temperature) > 40 °C as a necessary condition for diagnosis. However, in ...
