DECAY TIME CONTROL OF MASS DIFFUSION IN A TRANSIENT GRATING USING A FRINGE-TUNABLE ELECTROTHERMAL FRESNEL MIRROR

Decay time control of mass diffusion in a transient grating using a fringe-tunable electrothermal Fresnel mirror

This paper reports a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirror with electrothermal polymer actuators for the diffusion sensor.A compact and high-speed diffusion sensor is desirable for point-of-care testing because of its real-time monitorability and portability, and because diffusion coefficient reflects the abnormality of biological samples su

Coarse- and fine-scale patterns of distribution and habitat selection places an Amazonian floodplain curassow in double jeopardy

Patterns of habitat selection are influenced by local productivity, resource availability, and predation risk.Species have taken millions of years to hone the AMINO 1 LEMON LIME macro- and micro-habitats they occupy, but these may now overlap with contemporary human threats within natural species ranges.Wattled Curassow (Crax globulosa), an endemic
