The California Current Large Marine Ecosystem
(CCLME), a temperate marine region dominated by episodic
upwelling, is predicted to experience rapid environmental
change in the future due to ocean acidification. The aragonite
saturation state within the California Current System is
predicted to decrease in the future with near-permanent undersaturation
conditions expected...
Passively generated lateral motion of fluid during pool boiling on asymmetrically textured mesoscale structures is discussed in this Letter. The surface texture is in the form of 30°–60° mm-scale ratchets with re-entrant cavities located on the 30° face. High speed visualization of growing bubbles from cavities indicates growth and departure...
