متن کاملDefrosting Sequence on the Russell
Introduction: Uncommon features have been observed in the cryptic region near the south polar cap during the spring time retreat of the seasonal cap.

متن کاملDynamic defrosting on nanostructured superhydrophobic surfaces.
Water suspended on chilled superhydrophobic surfaces exhibits delayed freezing; however, the interdrop growth of frost through subcooled condensate forming on the surface seems unavoidable in humid environments. It is therefore of great practical importance to determine whether facile defrosting is possible on superhydrophobic surfaces. Here, we report that nanostructured superhydrophobic surfa...
