This paper presents the results of an evaluation of the effects of a local water harvesting project in Kenya concerning the construction of small scale sand dams by communities. Sand dams are small structures built in ephemeral rivers to store excess water to overcome periods of drought. For this evaluation we developed a method using socio-economic vulnerability indicators, which are linked to...

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was used to study the swelling properties of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) in ethanol solutions containing 15, 30 and 45 wt% water. The characteristics of the swollen PVA, intrinsic relation between the microstructure of the swollen PVA and the diffusion of water and ethanol in the PVA matrix were analyzed. It was found that the free volume of the swollen PVA redu...

A CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based electrochemical immunoassay of phosphorylated bovine serum albumin (BSA-OP) as a protein biomarker is presented. The QDs were used as labels for amplifying electrochemical signals and were conjugated with a secondary anti-phosphoserine antibody in a heterogeneous sandwich immunoassay. In this assay, the model phosphorylated protein BSA-OP was added to the prima...

This paper presents a new microwave snow emissivity model which is empirically derived from satellite retrievals and ground-based measurements. This model produces a variety of snow emissivity spectra at microwave frequencies according to snow types. As part of this model, an algorithm is also developed to classify snow type using the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) measurements at 23.8...
