Aerosols deposit behind the sheet (Plant leaf model)?（植物葉モデル）薄板の裏側までエアロゾルが沈着する？

Simultaneous deposition of submicron aerosols onto both surfaces of a plate substrate by electrostatic forces We demonstrate one-step deposition of submicrometer-sized particles suspended in the gas-phase onto a plate type substrate using an electrostatic-assisted spray system. The particles were deposited on plate-type metallic surfaces, on both front and rear sides of the substrate. This “both-side”…

What happens when we spray water-soluble “air pollution” particles to plants for 2 years? 水溶性 「大気汚染」 粒子を植物に2年間散布したらどうなるでしょう?

JOURNAL: Atmospheric Environment (2014) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2014.01.023 Effects of 2-years exposure to (sub-micron) ammonium sulfate particles on growth and gas exchange rates of Fagus crenata (ブナ), Castanopsis sieboldii (スダジイ), Larix kaempferi (唐松) and Cryptomeria japonica (スギ) seedlings •No significant effect of the particles on growth was observed after 2 years.•Net photosynthetic rates of 3 species were not significantly changed.•Net photosynthesis…

Student as a project leader in a MEXT/TUAT program, 学生が研究代表者

Masao Gen, a doctoral student got a grant for his project on advancing a sensor technology to detect pesticide on-site. Sponsor = Innovation Advancement Organization (IAO), based on a TUAT/MEXT project. 博士課程後期の学生（玄）が申請した研究プロジェクトが採択されました。 The program includes few-days training at SRI (Stanford Research Institute, California) and Cornell University. [イノベーション推進機構より] 本プロジェクトは、文部科学省実践型研究リーダー養成事業「ニーズ展開実践型高度研究人材養成モデル化事業」の一環として、博士学生に対して専門分野の枠を越えた研究活動、インターンシップ、並びに産業界との連携を包括的に支援、促進することによって、事前学習で習得した知識や技術を実践し、研究リーダーに求められる能力、資質を磨いていくことを目的としています。博士後期課程学生については、研究代表者として自ら研究チームを組織し、企業等の課題を解決できる企画・提案を実践していくとともに、その後共同研究等に発展することを奨励することとし、これに必要な経費を支援します。 http://www.tuat.ac.jp/~innovate/ A reference of our Pesticide Detector…
