Spring Bamboo Shoot Building Solar Power Generation

How plasmonic bamboo device is prepared for solar steam generation?

Plasmonic bamboo device was prepared for solar steam generation. Nano-plasma metal converted solar energy into heat energy by the plasma effect. The microstructure and heat behavior were characterized. Thermal conversion efficiency up to 87% was achieved. Superior stability and cycle performance was revealed. −2 −2

Does plasmonic bamboo have proper thermal management?

Above results indicate that plasmonic bamboo has proper thermal management because the heat was mainly concentrated on the water-air surface of the plasmonic bamboo, which was conducive to the efficient solar steam generation.

Why is plasmonic bamboo stable?

The excellent stability of plasmonic bamboo was dependent on a strong combination of the metal NPs and oriented bamboo channels because the surface of the oriented vessels contained functional groups (hydroxyl groups) and electrostatic interactions which were conducive to nanoparticle attachment.

Does the MaxEnt model predict the potential distribution of bamboo forest?

The suitability of bamboo forest predicted by MaxEnt model under different climatic conditions demonstrated marked spatiotemporal changes, and the potential distribution of bamboo forest showed range contractions towards the interior and expansions towards southwestern China under the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios.

Which climatic variables are suitable for potential distribution of bamboo forest?

The suitable ranges of the seven climatic variables for potential distribution of bamboo forest were 337–794 mm, 496–705 mm, 213–929 mm, 74.3%–83.4%, 16.6–23.8 °C, 2.3–10.1 °C and 3.2 × 104 –4.3 × 10 4 W m −2, respectively.
