Influence of Micron Roughness on Droplet Adhesion and Detachment Behavior with Coal Surfaces by Siheng Hou, Peng Xiong, Xianshu Dong, Hengfei Chen, Shuhuan Li, Yujin Sun

“…A highly sensitive adhesion force measuring instrument was employed to study the continuous attachment and detachment processes between droplets and coal surfaces of different roughness levels. Contact angle results indicated that as the roughness of the coal sample surface increased, the contact angle gradually decreased, suggesting an increase in the hydrophilicity of the coal surface. …”

Evaluation of Temporal Changes in Evapotranspiration and Crop Water Requirements in the Context of Changing Climate: Case Study of the Northern Bucharest–Ilfov Development Region,... by Florentina Iuliana Mincu, Daniel Constantin Diaconu, Dana Maria Oprea Constantin, Daniel Peptenatu

“…The methodology used highlights this fact, showing that major changes are needed in the choice of crop schemes and future technological processes in the current context of climate change. The current results of the study, conducted over a period of 30 years (1991–2020), showed that the climatic, land use and economic changes in the study area have led to a decrease in evapotranspiration and crop water requirements due to the amounts of precipitation that can provide for the water needs of strawberry, sunflower and pea crops. …”
