Vertical stratification of selected Hymenoptera in a remnant forest of the Po Plain (Italy, Lombardy) (Hymenoptera: Ampulicidae, Crabronidae, Sphecidae) [PDF]
Communities of the canopy of temperate forests are still relatively unexplored. Furthermore, very little is known on how vertical stratification for some insect groups is related to biological strategies.

Boosting Oxygen Electrocatalytic Activity of Fe–N–C Catalysts by Phosphorus Incorporation
Nitrogen-doped graphitic carbon materials hosting single-atom iron (Fe–N–C) are major non-precious metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The nitrogen-coordinated Fe sites are described as the first coordination sphere.

Correlation between Pile Displacement from Pile Load Tests and FE Modelling: Case Study of Piles in Cawthorne Channel Area in Nigeria [PDF]
Pile load static tests are used to confirm that a pile would not exceed a prescribed displacement at service or ultimate limit load. In this work, 600mm diameter steel piles were driven to 30m depths at the project site in the Niger Delta region of ...

Iron atom–cluster interactions increase activity and improve durability in Fe–N–C fuel cells
Simultaneously increasing the activity and stability of the single-atom active sites of M–N–C catalysts is critical but remains a great challenge. Here, we report an Fe–N–C catalyst with nitrogen-coordinated iron clusters and closely surrounding Fe–N4 ...

Comments about the relationship between Science and Faith in the Magisterium of the Church
En el texto se analiza la relación entre Ciencia y Fe en el Magisterio de la Iglesia Católica. El análisis se fundamenta en la posición de los Concilios Vaticano I y II sobre la importancia de la Fe y la Razón para el hombre, en su búsqueda de la verdad;

Insights into the activity of single-atom Fe-N-C catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction
Single-atom Fe-N-C catalysts has attracted widespread attentions in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, the origin of ORR activity on Fe-N-C catalysts is still unclear, which hinder the further improvement of Fe-N-C catalysts.

Electrochemical ammonia synthesis via nitrate reduction on Fe single atom catalyst
Electrochemically converting nitrate, a widespread water pollutant, back to valuable ammonia is a green and delocalized route for ammonia synthesis, and can be an appealing and supplementary alternative to the Haber-Bosch process.
