Functional Surfaces A4 - Fog Harvesting (Advanced)

In the last part of this section we looked at the Namib Desert Beetle. In this video we go further and study the Cotula Fallax plant species which has a 3-dimensional water capture mechanism. We also look at the issues faced by current fog harvesting nets and the next generation of biomimetic designs. This is the second part of section 5 in this series of online video primers teaching about the behaviour of water on surfaces. This video is designed for ages 18 (Undergraduate level).
