Second-law-based performance evaluation of cooling towers and evaporative heat exchangers by QURESHI, BILAL AHMED

“…For the different input variables investigated, efficiencies were, almost always, seen to increase or decrease monotonically. We notice that an increase in the inlet wet bulb temperature invariably increases the second-law efficiency of all the heat exchangers. …”

Habitat Complexity Influences the Microhabitat Choices of Desert Beetles by Bartholomew, Aaron

“…The model predicts that prey survivorship is maximized at intermediate Sp/Py values, such that prey can fit through the spaces in a habitat, but their larger predators cannot. The model also predicts that prey survivorship increases with increasing cover (Ct/At), which interferes with predators' ability to detect prey. …”

Adapting to Climate Risk? Local Population Dynamics in the United States by Agustín Indaco (21633494)

“…<p dir="ltr">Using a new composite climate-risk index, we show that population in high-risk counties has grown disproportionately over the last few decades, even relative to the corresponding commuting zone. We also find that the agglomeration is largely driven by increases in the (white) working-age population. …”
