Sandhill cranes flying in the distance at sunrise March 20, 2021, are framed by power lines extending from a pole west of Rowe Sanctuary's Iain Nicolson Audubon Center. A UV light box is on the top ...

(The full range of UV light is about 10 to 380 nm, with violet beginning at the latter.) During the experiment, "our subjects consistently reported that the light appeared a desaturated violet ...

When molecules interact with ultraviolet (UV) light, they can change shape quickly, producing strain—stress in a molecule's chemical structure due to an increase in the molecule's internal energy.

In this month’s Weather Experiment Wednesday, Discovery Lab Senior Education Manager Micah Firestone showed us how to harness UV light to create images on special paper. This cyanotide activity ...

But UC's lab-scale experiments showed that UV/chlorine treatment effectively reduced the level of toxins below World Health ...

Could UV Light Reduce the Spread of Covid-19 in Indoor Spaces? Some wavelengths of light in a range called far-UVC kill microbes in experiments and appear to be harmless to people ...

When the experiment was run with UV filters so the fish couldn't see the UV facial patterns, this same preference for attacking kin wasn't found. It makes sense they would attack one of their own.

In this study, researchers conducted experiments with broad-tailed hummingbirds, Selasphorus platycercus, to see whether the birds could differentiate between spectral colors and spectral colors ...

The experiments are described in full in the paper “Solar cell UV-induced degradation or module discolouration: Between the devil and the deep yellow,” published in Progress in Photovoltaics.

Texel, 11 January 2023 - UV light from the sun slowly breaks down plastics on the ocean’s surfaces. Floating microplastic is broken down into ever smaller, invisible nanoplastic particles that ...
