Superhydrophobic Sand Mulch Shifts Soil Evaporation from Temperature-Controlled to Diffusion-Limited Regimes

Amr Al-Zu'bi, Muhammad Subkhi Sadullah, Jiaqi Zheng +3

In hot arid and semi-arid regions, substantial irrigation water is lost through surface evaporation under intense solar irradiation and high temperatures, limiting freshwater susta…

A General Framework for Liquid Marbles

Adair Gallo, Fernanda Tavares, Ratul Das +1

Liquid marbles refer to liquid droplets that are covered with a layer of non-wetting particles. They are observed in nature and have practical significance. However, a generalized…

Superhydrophobic sand mulches increase agricultural productivity in arid regions

Adair Gallo, Kennedy Odokonyero, Magdi A. A. Mousa +9

Excessive evaporative loss of water from the topsoil in arid-land agriculture is compensated via irrigation, which exploits massive freshwater resources. The cumulative effects of…

The Chemical Reactions in Electrosprays of Water Do Not Always Correspond to Those at the Pristine Air-Water Interface

Adair Gallo, Andreia S. F. Farinha, Miguel Dinis +4

The recent application of electrosprays to characterize the air-water interface, along with the reports on dramatically accelerated chemical reactions in aqueous electrosprays, hav…
