Channel Network Control on Seasonal Lake Area Dynamics in Arctic Deltas حسب Tejedor, Alejandro

"…We find that monthly shrinkage rates have a pronounced structured variability around the channel network with the shrinkage rate systematically decreasing farther away from the channels. This pattern of shrinkage is predominantly attributed to a deeper active layer enhancing near-surface connectivity and storage and greater vegetation density closer to the channels leading to increased evapotranspiration rates. …"

Application of Fe₃O₄ magnetite nanoparticles grafted in silica (SiO₂) for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions حسب Wamda Faisal Elmobarak (17058024)

"…Using an MD_dose as low as 10 mg/L attained a %_hdem in the range of 93% - 4.3% for O/W mixtures with C_oil < 2000 mg/L, which slightly decreased to ~90% for higher concentrations. The reported %R_oil(p-value <0.05) was >90 ± 0.1 for tests carried out with pH 7 and C_sur0.1 g/L and declined at higher pH and Csur to % 86.5 due to the increase in emulsion stability. …"
