Algorithms for selecting LEDs to imitate a group of daylight spectra, instead of fixed-spectrum lighting, are based on minimizing two indices. The first index related to the LEDs only is minimized for determining LED candidates. Minimizing the second index obtained by applying the daylight spectra to the candidates achieves a minimax solution. The sum of the second indices of the daylight spectra can be well approximated by that of the average spectrum of the daylight spectra and is treated as a target spectrum for the LED selection. A pruning process is followed to delete redundant LEDs.

Growing research on the non-visual impacts of light underscores the importance of architectural glazing systems in managing transmitted shortwave solar light and shaping indoor circadian light, vital for enhancing well-being. This study, conducted in two phases, evaluates the effectiveness of existing window properties in predicting their contribution to circadian lighting. Initially, a decision tree analysis assessed these properties and revealed that although traditional glazing metrics are not entirely accurate for circadian performance estimations, they can still be effective when supplemented with specific thresholds as rapid tools for selecting windows optimized for circadian health.

This effect is mediated by a phototransduction process projected by the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). The process also involves signal inputs from visual photoreceptors.

The functionalization of nanoparticles with 2D nanosheets is an effective approach to enhance their functional properties for pollutant removal. This research outlines the synthesis of a 2D-delaminated molybdenum carbide (MXene) chitosan nanocomposite (2D-d-MoCTx-Cs NC) with bacterial control and photocatalytic properties for dye adsorption. The nanocomposite includes Tx-surface terminating groups O, OH, and F.

Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) threatens to disrupt most natural habitats and species, including those in coastal settings, where a growing number of studies have identified ALAN impacts. A careful examination of the light properties behind those impacts is important to better understand and manage the effects of this stressor. This study focused on ALAN monochromatic wavelengths and examined which types of light spectra altered the natural activity of two prominent coastal species from the Pacific southeast: the talitroid amphipod Orchestoidea tuberculata and the oniscoid isopod Tylos spinulosus.
