Land-use surveys are conducted to further understand the distribution of surface properties.

The actual amount of dew in a specific place is strongly dependent on surface properties.

Understanding physical surface properties is also very important in determining safe landing sites for spacecraft.

Researchers are able to address most paper testing needs regarding strength, optical, and surface properties.

This allows surface properties to play a significant role in the function of the vessel.

You can see how having two different surface properties becomes a problem.

This is useful when surface properties of biological samples want to be studied.

However, friction also depends on other surface properties, such as Macrotexture.

Here the surface properties may be an important design factor.

The degree of polarization has a strong dependence on surface properties.
