Crystals are grown by slow evaporation of an aqueous solution containing L-methionine and maleic acid, resulting in centimeter-large crystals of a non-centrosymmetric space group.

Due to its relatively slow evaporation in comparison with other volatile binding mediums the layer can last for several weeks.

Carbonates, sulphates and nitrates had all been left behind by the slow evaporation of the ancient Martian seas; there were huge deposits of them, now mixing with the water as it ran across the surface.

The slow evaporation through the canvas under the sun's heat had made the liquid deliriously cool.

You think about the sea that covered this place hundreds of millions of years ago, the slow evaporation, mud turned to stone.

A common way to synthesize cocrystals is through slow evaporation of a solution that contains stoichiometric amounts of the cocrystal components, or cocrystal formers.

These generally include solvent layering (slow diffusion), slow evaporation, and slow cooling.

Their system of slow evaporation on natural land builds the character of the salt crystals as they form.

The slow evaporation enabled those crystals to grow under rather optimized conditions.

But wines older than 15 years will often be perfectly good even if they only reach midway up the rounded "shoulder" of a Bordeaux or Burgundy-style bottle: very slow evaporation need not damage the wine.

It keeps roots cool, slows evaporation and discourages weeds.

South of the ice sheets large lakes accumulated because outlets were blocked and the cooler air slowed evaporation.

Unfortunately, heavy rains left the field rutted by the equipment used in the wheat harvest last summer, and the wheat residue slowed evaporation on the field.

During dry weather, CWD slows evaporation of soil moisture and provides damp microhabitats for moisture-sensitive organisms.

Conversely, humid air slows evaporation and makes a surface feel warmer, and this is incorporated into longer wind chill formulas.

It draws moisture up through skin layers and slows or prevents excessive drying and evaporation.

Covering thatch with wire netting is no longer recommended, as this will slow evaporation and reduce its longevity.

In addition, acacia gum slows evaporation of water, giving slightly longer working time.

Shading by plants, especially in the salt marsh, can slow evaporation and thus ameliorate salinity stress.

For example, in Las Vegas, which is surrounded by desert, residents can get rebates for using covers on swimming pools to slow evaporation.
