Cutaneous saltation within and across arms: a new measure of the saltation illusion in somatosensation.
A new objective procedure was used to measure the strength of cutaneous saltation, in order to clarify current debates about the nature of this illusion. Three taps were presented successively to three possible forearm locations. Participants attended to the middle location and reported whether a tap was perceived there. When all stimuli were delivered to the same arm and intertap intervals wer...
متن کاملAuditory saltation: a new measure for an old illusion.
Auditory saltation is a mislocalization phenomenon in which click trains presented successively at two discrete spatial locations appear to originate from a smoothly varying series of source locations spanning the true source locations. The temporal parameters of this illusion are investigated with click stimuli delivered via headphones with the goal of establishing a portable test of the illus...
متن کاملGiant saltation on Mars.
Saltation, the motion of sand grains in a sequence of ballistic trajectories close to the ground, is a major factor for surface erosion, dune formation, and triggering of dust storms on Mars. Although this mode of sand transport has been matter of research for decades through both simulations and wind tunnel experiments under Earth and Mars conditions, it has not been possible to provide accura...
متن کاملDust resuspension without saltation.
Wind resuspension (or entrainment) provides a source of dust and contaminants for the atmosphere. Conventional wind erosion models parameterize dust resuspension flux with a threshold velocity or with a horizontal abrasion flux; in the absence of abrasion the models assume dust flux is transient only. Our experiments with an uncrusted, fine material at relative humidities exceeding 40% show a l...
متن کاملMidair collisions enhance saltation.
Here we address the old question in aeolian particle transport about the role of midair collisions. We find that, surprisingly, these collisions do enhance the overall flux substantially. The effect depends strongly on restitution coefficient and wind speed. We can explain this observation as a consequence of a soft bed of grains which floats above the ground and reflects the highest flying par...
