While the company clearly demonstrated that its system could distinguish human fingers from fakes, it was also clear that the idea of substituting spectral signatures or blood vessel patterns for surface finger prints will take some time to gain acceptance.
Figure 17 shows the salt accumulation patterns for surface flooding or sprinkler irrigation which apply a uniform depth of water across the entire field as contrasted to the salt accumulation patterns from furrow or localized (drip, trickle or spitter) irrigation which apply water to only part of the field surface.
She walked us through the process of designing and creating a pair of her flamboyant high heels, from forming a "proper dialogue" of ideas in her sketchbook, to a phase of "experimental baking, sculpting, casting and metalwork," followed by designing the pattern for the surface of the shoe.
The in-plane epitaxial orientations are then MnSb⟨21̅1̅0⟩∥Ge⟨110⟩ and MnSb⟨11̅00⟩∥Ge⟨2̅11⟩. Following growth, and upon allowing the samples to cool to room temperature, a faint td(1 × 4) pattern developed indicating the formation of an Sb-rich surface, and typical RHEED patterns for this surface reconstruction are shown in Figure 2d,e.
Skin fibroblasts expressed the pattern of surface markers typical for MSC, had classical fibroblast morphology, and were able to differentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes confirming their mesodermal origin.
Knowledge of the so-called "source-sink" pattern of surface runoff is important for soil conservation, water resources management and vegetation restoration in the dry-land ecosystems.
A different pattern of surface localization was found for CysK and AcnB, were flow cytometry indicated that the proteins were surface exposed at relatively high amounts but only in a subpopulation of cells.
A similar pattern was observed for surface area of fine roots, which was also positively correlated with root surface area (r = 0.8).
We developed a patterned cellulose membrane for surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurement that works as a capillary force inducing material to provide liquid flow and as a support for antibody immobilization.
The capability to provide reliable patterns of surface flux for fine-scale inversions is presently limited by the number of vegetation classes for which NEE can be constrained by the current network of eddy flux sites and by the accuracy of MODIS data and data for sunlight.
