To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords:
Inverted relief: a topographic feature, such as an old riverbed, that has reversed its elevation relative to other features.
Duricrust: a hard mineral crust formed at or near the surface of soil in semiarid regions by the evaporation of groundwater.
Geomorphology: the study of the physical features of the surface of the earth and their relation to its geological structures.
Exhumed paleochannel: a remnant of an inactive river or stream channel that has been either filled or buried by younger sediment, and then subsequently uncovered by erosion.
Erosion: the action of surface processes, including wind and water, that move dirt and rock from their original location to some other place.
Capillary action: the tendency of a liquid in a capillary tube or absorbent material to rise or fall as a result of surface tension.

February 24, 2025TRANSPARENT Solar Panels?!
To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords:
Solar window: a window that functions like an ordinary window but also generates power like a solar panel
Nanoparticle (also called nanopowder or nanocluster or nanocrystal): a microscopic particle with at least one dimension less than 100 nm. These tiny objects often have characteristics that differ from larger versions of the same material.
Quantum dots (QD): tiny nanoparticles of some kind of semiconducting material, only several nanometers in size, so small that their optical and electronic properties differ from those of larger particles. The QDs embedded in solar windows can absorb radiation largely in short wavelengths and re-emit in longer wavelengths; useful for capturing solar energy and successfully transferring it to the solar cells on the edges of the pane.
Total internal reflection: a phenomenon in which a wave hits a medium boundary at such an angle that it doesn't pass through to the other side
