These presentations, lightning talks and breakout reviews were given on the third day of the code4lib Conference held Feb. 15-17, 2006, at LaSells Stewart Center, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon.
Soil organic carbon (SOC, kg C m-2) is an important component in evaluating global C stores. The nitrogen (TN, kg N m"2) cycle is closely linked to C and understanding its role is also important. Contents and distributions of SOC and TN in soil profiles, to 1-meter depth, were estimated...
Polyhalogenated benzenes have been analyzed by standard electron capture
chemical ionization mass spectrometry (ECCI/MS), and electron monochromator mass
spectrometer (EM/MS) systems. The EM/MS experiments distinguished electronegative
compounds (especially isomers) by transient negative ions (TNIs) of the same mass but
differing energies and/or the formation of distinct TNIs of different masses...
The essential oil of Alaska cedar heartwood is known to contain compounds which contribute to the remarkable durability of this species. While previous research has identified several compounds, a complete description of this oil, which has a "burnt-grape fruit" odor, has not been undertaken. In this research a profile of...
