How a persistent chemical enters our surface waters: Modeling TFA formation and distribution in the atmosphere

PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are not called "forever chemicals" for nothing. These ...

Dentin inside wolffish teeth is a rare material: When compressed along its length—it also shrinks in width

The Atlantic wolffish is known for its powerful bite, capable of crushing hard-shelled prey with ease. Now, researchers have ...

SAR probability density function estimation using a generalized form of K-distribution

Abstract: In this paper, generalized forms of amplitude and intensity K-distributions are proposed to model multilook synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The approach is based upon a product model in ...
