A close-up of sandstone from Marquette, Michigan, part of the NIST stone wall
This image shows a close-up of red and gray sandstone from Marquette, Michigan. It is part of the NIST stone wall, which was built using 2,352 stones from 47 US states and 320 from 16 foreign countries. The wall is approximately 12 m long, 4 m high, 0.6 m thick at the bottom, and 0.3 m at the top. The aim of the wall construction was to study the aging process of stones used in construction under outside weathering conditions

Accuracy of Approximations to the Poynting Correction for Ice and Liquid Water
Rigorous calculation of the Poynting correction, which describes the effect of pressure on the fugacity of a condensed phase, requires time-consuming evaluation of a thermodynamic potential such as the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS-95) formulation for water. Simplifying approximations are used in many applications, but the error introduced by the approximations is seldom evaluated. In this work, first-order and second-order approximations were developed for the Poynting correction for both ice and liquid water (including supercooled liquid water), and their errors were evaluated by comparison to the full thermodynamic potentials. The range of conditions covered is from _100 �C to 200 �C at pressures to 20 MPa. Some implications for the calculation of the enhancement factor used in humidity metrology are discussed
