IT would appear that there may have been some ambiguity in the use of the terms ‘standard reference surfaces’ and ‘standard values’ in our recent article on the above subject 1. The standard reference ...

Hot and arid climates benefit most from the combination of agriculture and PV farms. Image: Iberdrola. Combining solar modules and crops in an area is not a new idea in the PV industry since it could ...

To assess the effects of idiopathic epimacular membrane (IEMM) on retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), photoreceptor inner segment/outer segment (IS/OS) junction, and external limiting membrane (ELM) ...

A new analysis of the Northern Hemisphere's "albedo feedback" over a 30-year period concludes that the region's loss of reflectivity due to snow and sea ice decline is more than double what ...

Observations conducted by the Murikabushi Telescope of Ishigakijima Astronomical Observatory confirmed that dark coating can reduce satellite reflectivity by half. There are concerns that numerous ...

Observations confirmed that dark coating can reduce satellite reflectivity by half. There are concerns that numerous artificial satellites in orbit could impair astronomical observations, but these ...

Since May 24, 2019, SpaceX has been launching satellites into orbit 60 at a time to bolster the ranks of its Starlink megaconstellation – a fleet of networked sats flying in formation that, once ...

Scientific researchers draw inspiration from nature’s brilliance as they seek to develop transformative solutions to unresolved challenges. Prof. WANG Zuankai, Associate Vice President (Research and ...

A high reflectivity mirror, also known as a supermirror, is a dielectric mirror that has been carefully designed to provide optimal reflectivity while minimizing any scatter and absorption effects.

A new analysis of the Northern Hemisphere’s “albedo feedback” over a 30-year period concludes that the region’s loss of reflectivity due to snow and sea ice decline is more than double what ...
