Application of a Split-Window Algorithm to Estimate Land Surface Temperature from NOAA-AVHRR Data
2006
Estimaciones de temperatura de la superficie terrestre, en días parciales a completamente despejados, fueron realizadas a partir de los datos proporcionados por el sensor Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR), a bordo de la serie de satélites de la National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) por aplicación de un algoritmo basado en el método de Split-Window. El algoritmo utilizado supone correcciones por emisividad y contenido de vapor de agua atmosférico, y fue validado con mediciones de temperatura de la superficie terrestre realizadas en terreno. Para esto, un data logger LI-1000 se instaló en la Estación Agrometeorológica dependiente del Instituto de Investigacione…

On-chip purification of arc-discharge synthesized multiwalled carbon nanotubes via mobile liquid interface
2017
This thesis reports a novel approach for purification of carbon nanotube (CNT) samples deposited on smooth silicon substrates through a mobile liquid interface interacting with carbonaceous debris particles that contaminate the deposition. The method is based on physical interaction of the particles and the three-phase contact line via capillary interface forces, i.e. the surface tension, which results in the detachment of chemically indispersible colloids from the sample surface. In the experiments reported in this work, we focus primarily on arc-discharge grown multi-walled carbon nanotubes, whose synthesis is particularly plagued by carbonaceous debris that is difficult to remove without h…
