Temperature Increase due to Homogenization

Screen level temperature increase due to higher atmospheric carbon dioxide in calm and windy nights revisited

[1] Long‐term surface observations over land have shown temperature increases during the last century, especially during nighttime. Observations analyzed by Parker (2004) show similar long‐term trends for calm and windy conditions at night, and on basis of this it was suggested that the possible effect of urban heat effects on long‐term temperature trends are small. On the other hand, a simplif...

Viscosity increase with temperature in cationic surfactant solutions due to the growth of wormlike micelles.

Wormlike micellar solutions based on ionic surfactants typically show an exponential decrease in viscosity upon heating. Here, we report the unusual observation of an increasing viscosity with temperature in certain cationic wormlike micellar solutions. The solutions contain a cationic surfactant with an erucyl (C22, mono-unsaturated) tail and an organic salt, sodium hydroxynaphthalene carboxyl...

Compartmental model for the estimation of temperature increase in fetus due to RFID exposure

In the recent few years, the dramatic increase of Radio Frequency (RF) sources, including Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) systems, has raised concern about the possible effect on health. In the RF range (3 kHz – 300 GHz) the main health effect known is the tissue heating and the consequent increase in temperature, which can be particularly dangerous for sensitive subjects, like pregnant f...

Nicotine poisoning increase due to e-cigarettes.

Neuropathy Pain May Increase Due to PCBs

Some of the persons involved in an outbreak of ''yusho'' (polychlorinated biphenyl poisoning due to contaminated cooking oil) in Japan during the summer of 1968 complained of numbness or neuralgic limbs. Therefore, peripheral sensory nerve conduction velocity was measured in 21 such patients, and motor nerve conduction velocity in 19 of these. The motor nerve conduction velocity in the ulnar ne...
