Cavitation bubbles collapsing in the vicinity to a solid substrate induce intense micro-convection at the solid. Here we study the transient near-wall flows generated by single collapsing bubbles by chronoamperometric measurements synchronously coupled with high-speed imaging. The individual bubbles are created at con…

Abstract There are many application areas, where the ability to accurately predict the speed of expansion of fragments from explosively disseminated porous shells is important. For inert materials this speed in part determines the size of the resulting cloud. For reactive materials this speed in part determines the ab…

Species cooccurrence patterns give significant insights into the processes shaping communities. While biotic interactions have been widely studied using cooccurrence analyses in animals and larger plants, studies about cooccurrences among micro-organisms are still relatively rare. We examined stream diatom cooccurrenc…
