The signs of an expanding atmosphere HD209458b have been observed with far-ultraviolet transmission spectroscopy and in the measurements transit absorption by metastable HeI. These observations are interpreted using hydrodynamic Monte-Carlo numerical simulations various degree complexity consistency. At same time, no attempt has made to model atmospheric escape a magnetized HD209458b, see how p...

Measurements of chlorothalonil residue on tomato foliage are expensive and time consuming, yet knowledge of chlorothalonil persistence would assist in fungicide application scheduling. The objective of this study was to calibrate an existing chlorothalonil persistence model for processing tomatoes, and to incorporate the predictions of chlorothalonil residue into TOM-CAST. The Bruhn and Fry (19...
