This paper highlights the influence of contact line (pinning) forces on the mobility of dry bubbles in microchannels. Bubbles moving at velocities less than the dewetting velocity of liquid on the surface are essentially dry, meaning that there is no thin liquid film around the bubbles. For these “dry” bubbles,...
Monthly total precipitation and mean temperature climate surfaces, gridded to 30-arcseconds (≈1 km at the
equator) and available for all global land areas, are presented. These datasets are generated with a Delta downscaling
method, using the 30-arcsecond WorldClim climatologies to scale monthly anomaly grids. For monthly mean temperature,
the anomalies...
