A second promising alternative source of fresh water is fog: a vertical mesh can be used to capture moisture from the air, with the droplets accumulating in a tank or distribution system. Given that fog is very common even in dry areas, fog-harvesting systems amount to a practical, cost-ef...
Water scarcity is an unavoidable challenge due to the global population explosion, industrialization, and climate change [1,2]. To mitigate this crisis, desalination and water reuse by reverse osmosis (RO) technology [3,4] have been increasingly adopted. RO technology relies on membrane materials ...
In most usage “zoonotic” refers to pathogens like Ebola virus, some coronaviruses, and Nipah virus that are transmissible between vertebrate hosts and humans. This chapter will mostly focus on zoonotic viruses that can be transmitted from vertebrates to people by direct contact, but also includes...
Adding further intrigue to this puzzle is a phenomenon known as the “hot Neptune desert.” Planets the size of Neptune are conspicuously absent on orbits shorter than about three days. The reasons for this scarcity are still under investigation, butextreme radiationfrom stars at this distance and...
Much of the world will suffer near permanent states of drought with water scarcity likely to become an increasing source of civil disruption and interstate conflict. As we exit what has been for humanity a climactic Goldilocks period, the Holocene, and enter the Anthropocene driven by the impact...
Most developed methods use conventional white light imaging. Even though specialised modalities have proven helpful for detecting and diagnosing particular lesions, very little research can be found on more specialised modalities (see Table1). For example, chromoendoscopy is a well-established medical pro...
