We estimate the depth of the 120°C isotherm by constructing crustal thermal gradients based on theoretical and observed conductive heat flux as a function of lithospheric age. We chose the 120°C isotherm because it is close to the upper limit for prokaryotic life, and therefore, the isotherm approximates the maximum...
During the Ice in Clouds Experiment‐Layer Clouds (ICE‐L), dry lakebed, or playa,
salts from the Great Basin region of the United States were observed as cloud nuclei in
orographic wave clouds over Wyoming. Using a counterflow virtual impactor in series with
a single‐particle mass spectrometer, sodium‐potassium‐magnesium‐calcium‐chloride
salts were identified as...
A number of methods to isolate and quantify protein in Pinot noir wines were evaluated. The combination of precipitation by acetone containing 10% w/v trichloroacetic acid followed by quantification with the Bradford assay, reported in yeast invertase equivalents yielded the most accurate results when compared to micro-Kjeldahl analysis. The technique...
