(Springer, 2012-02-10)Taylor’s frozen turbulence hypothesis is the central assumption invoked in most experiments designed to investigate turbulence physics with time resolving sensors. It is also frequently used in theoretical discussions ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2012-11)Vegetation growing on the surface of a streambank has been shown to alter the shear stresses applied to the boundary, but basic questions remain regarding the influence of vegetation and streambank configurations on ne ...
-
(2009-12-09)Microbial electrolysis provides a new approach for hydrogen generation from renewable biomass. At current stage, the most likely limiting factors for successful scale up of this technology are the large internal resistan ...
-
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-07-20)The role of evapotranspiration (ET) in the global, continental, regional, and local water cycles is reviewed. Elevated atmospheric CO₂, air temperature, vapor pressure deficit (D), turbulent transport, radiative transfer ...
-
(2012-06-15)This document describes the design and deployment of a first generation water vapor density sensing unit, the HumiSense. This device is based on an open, air-filled capacitor which is part of a resonant circuit. The fre ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2005-11-22)No abstract available.
-
(Soil Science Society of America, 2012-07)Current laboratory methods for determining volume and bulk density of soil clods include dipping saran-coated clods in water (a destructive process due to the permanent coating), performing physical measurements on sampl ...
-
(Springer, 2011-11-24)Ecosystem services play a crucial role in sustaining human well-being and economic viability. People benefit substantially from the delivery of ecosystem services, for which substitutes usually are costly or unavailable. ...
-
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012-08)The performance of an over 10 times larger microbial fuel cell (MFC) with double cloth electrode assembly (CEA) during 63 days of continuous operation demonstrates that the excellent performance of CEA-MFC can be further ...
-
Influence of processing parameters on diffusion of divalent nickel in wet silica sol-gel monoliths (2010-08-06)The diffusion of divalent nickel (Ni²⁺) from wet silica gels was investigated. Silica gel is gaining interest as an encapsulation matrix for biological components. The transport of biologically relevant species within ...
-
(Springer, 2012-05)Background, aim and scope: The aim of this study was to perform a well-to-pump life cycle assessment (LCA) to investigate the overall net energy balance and environmental impact of bioethanol production using Tall Fescue ...
-
(Soil Science Society of America, 2012-05)Shrinkage cracks in soil function as a dominant control on the partitioning and distribution of moisture fluxes in the vadose zone. Their dynamics influence moisture balance and control water availability for runoff, dee ...
-
(2011-07-01)Upper Klamath Lake (UKL) and Agency Lake (AL) in southern Oregon are both hypereutrophic, in large part due to natural and anthropogenic loading of phosphorus (P), resulting in annual blooms of blue-green algae. Reductio ...
-
(2009-04-13)Many conditions affecting hydrogen (H₂) production by the cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, were optimized to yield maximum H₂ accumulation. Biological H₂ production from photosynthetic species is a promising ...
-
(2011-02-25)Photobiological hydrogen production from live cells of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 encapsulated in silica gel was investigated. Hydrogen is a dense energy carrier with potential to reduce dependence on ...
-
(Springer, 2012-03-01)The growth characteristics of Thermosynechococcus elongatus on elevated CO₂ were studied in a photobioreactor. Cultures were able to grow on up to 20% CO₂. The maximum productivity and CO₂ fixation rates were 0.09 ± A 0. ...
-
(2008-05-15)Nitrosomonas europaea (ATCC19718) participates in the biological removal of nitrogen from wastewater by oxidizing ammonia to nitrite, the first step in nitrification. This bacterium is sensitive to heavy metals (Zn²⁺, Cd ...
-
(American Institute of Physics, 2011-11-01)Increase in energy demand has led towards considering lignocellulosic feedstocks as potential for ethanol production. Aim of this study was to estimate the potential of grass straws from conservation reserve program (CRP ...
-
(2007-12-03)Abstract Watershed-scale fate/transport modeling of contaminants is a tool that scientists and land managers can use to assess pesticide contamination to stream systems. The Catchment Modeling Framework (CMF) is a catchm ...
-
(Springer, 2013-03)Cyanobacteria inhabit nearly every ecosystem on earth, play a vital role in nutrient cycling, and are useful as model organisms for fundamental research in photosynthesis and carbon and nitrogen fixation. In addition, ...
