Endargement Of Undeveloped Areas Of Serbia By Forest Fires, João F. Gomes
Endargement Of Undeveloped Areas Of Serbia By Forest Fires, João F. Gomes
João F Gomes
Considering the significance of discovering the causes of forest fires, the hypothesis on the solar activity is presented (i.e. physical–chemical characteristics of the solar wind) as the possible cause of these natural disasters. The empirical confirmation of the mentioned hypothesis was disabled by the non existence of an adequate data base on the (regional) distribution of the number of fires and burned areas on the level of Serbia. Therefore an emphasis is put on theoretical explanations, but also on the characteristic situations in which there is an agreement between the processes occurring on the Sun and fire phenomena in the …

We present a novel method for investigating a nanometric cluster of water molecules, which includes the formation and manipulation of nanometric water, and the measurement of its mechanical properties. The atomic force microscope based on the quartz tuning-fork sensor is employed to form and manipulate the nanometric water, and the theoretical tool of amplitude-modulation atomic force microscopy is used to obtain the elasticity, viscosity and dissipation energy of it. With high vertical resolution less than [similar]0.1 nm and high force sensitivity of [similar]0.01 N m−1, this tool facilitates the stable formation and manipulation of a nano-water cluster ([similar]104 molecules) in …
