Abrupt Geographic Shift in Hydrogen Isotope Ratios of Meteoric Water Across the Western Andes, Peru

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Quantitative isotopic paleoaltimetry has been applied in regions where Rayleigh distillation controls isotopic lapse rates. Air mass mixing and moisture recycling are viewed as complicating factors.

Molecular cloning of the gene for 2,6-β-d-fructan 6-levanbiohydrolase fromStreptomyces exfoliatusF3-2 [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2003
The gene encoding a 2,6-beta-D-fructan 6-levanbiohydrolase (LF2ase) (EC 3.2.1.64) that converts levan into levanbiose was cloned from the genomic DNA of Streptomyces exfoliatus F3-2. The gene encoded a signal peptide of 37 amino acids and a mature protein of 482 amino acids with a total length of 1560 bp and was successfully expressed in Escherichia ...

Can δD and δ18O stable isotopes be used to detect long-range dispersal among carabid beetles?

open access: yes, 2017
We studied if hydrogen (δD) and oxygen (δ18O) stable isotope values in three common carabid species in intensively managed agricultural landscapes in southernmost Sweden indicate long-range dispersal.

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 566-581, March 2025.
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

Seasonal and Inter-Annual Variations of Stable Isotopic Characteristics of Rainfall and Cave Water in Shennong Cave, Southeast China, and Its Paleoclimatic Implication

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Speleothem calcite stable oxygen isotope (δ18OC) is one of the most widely used proxies in paleoclimate research, and understanding its seasonal-annual variability is very significant for palaeoclimate reconstruction.

Edible Cuttlefish Ink: Complex Chemistry, Structure, and Electrical Response

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An integrated approach of chemistry‐structure‐electrical properties is used to assess the potential of edible cuttlefish ink as a bio‐based conductive ink for printable electronics. Chromatography and Neutron Activation Analysis reveal a fascinating molecular and elemental diversity.

The origin of fresh glass in phreatic eruptions at Rincón de la Vieja and Turrialba volcanoes, Costa Rica

open access: yesVolcanica
Despite involving no fresh magma, phreatic eruptions are increasingly found to contain juvenile material. This study seeks to determine whether the glass is the result of an input of new magma or shallow stalled magma passively entrained.

Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Satellite-Based Distribution of Inverse Altitude Effect of Global Water Vapor Isotopes: Potential Influences on Isotopes in Climate Proxies

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The widely-distributed altitude effect of stable isotopes in meteoric water, i.e., the negative correlation between stable hydrogen (or oxygen) isotope compositions and altitude, is the theoretical basis of isotope paleoaltimetry in climate proxies ...
