摘要: The invention comprises a float evaporation reduction apparatus and method of use thereof. Individual floats self-right, self-unstack, and/or self-move through elements of the float design, such as a wind redirection element and/or a stability element. In one case, floats use top-side ridges to redirect wind forces to form, interconnect, and/or stabilize a self-assembled monolayer of floats. In another case, floats use side friction/interconnection forces to stabilize adjacent floats. In another case, one float and preferably a spatially distributed set of floats gather localized information as to the surrounding environment, and/or communicate data and/or information back to a controller.
