LED & LIGHTING quality evaluation the new DELTAOHM SpectroRadiometer HD30.1

LEDs cannot be manufactured with consistent optical properties as a result of the production processes involved. Brightness and color can vary substantially from component to component even in the same production batch. This is why LEDs have to be tested during production and in their final application. Comprehensive optical characterization is also essential during research and development of ...

Greenland`s glaciers losing ice faster this year than last year, which was record-setting itself

Researchers watching the loss of ice flowing out from the giant island of Greenland say that the amount of ice lost this summer is nearly three times what was lost one year ago. The loss of floating ice in 2008 pouring from Greenland's glaciers would cover an area twice the size of Manhattan Island in the U.S., they said. Jason Box, an associate professor of geography at Ohio State, said that the ...

Satellite cluster proves link between pollution and weather systems

Using data from instruments in a constellation of NASA and French satellites, scientists are learning more about the link between clouds, pollution and rainfall. Four NASA satellites - Aqua, Aura, CloudSat and CALIPSO and the French Space Agency's PARASOL - make up the string of satellites in the Afternoon Constellation, more commonly called the A-Train. They orbit only eight minutes apart ...

Sensors in Space Allow Daily Coastal Water Quality Monitoring

ST. PETERSBURG, Florida, August 31, 2007 (ENS) - Using data from instruments aboard two NASA satellites, Florida researchers have created a way to map the fleeting changes in coastal water quality from space - something that has long evaded researchers and coastal managers relying only on ground-based measurements. This information has direct application for resource managers working on ...

Greenland`s rising air temperatures drive ice loss at surface and beyond

Greenland's enormous ice sheet is home to enough ice to raise sea level by about 23 feet if the entire ice sheet were to melt into surrounding waters. Though the loss of the whole ice sheet is unlikely, loss from Greenland's ice mass has already contributed in part to 20th century sea level rise of about two millimeters per year, and future melt has the potential to impact people and economies ...

Modis images amazon drought impact

A NASA-funded study has revealed widespread reductions in the greenness of Amazon forests caused by last year's record-breaking drought. Computer models predict a changing climate with warmer temperatures and altered rainfall patterns, which could lead to rainforests being replaced by grasslands or woody savannas. Carbon stored in rotting wood would then be released into the atmosphere, ...
