Determination of Nitrate Uptake and Accumulation Using 15N in Rice Seedlings
Nitrogen-15 is a rare stable isotope of nitrogen. This isotope is often used in agricultural research. For example, Nitrogen-15 is used to trace mineral nitrogen compounds and translocate the nitrogen molecule in plants.

Conformation-Specific Spectroscopy of Peptide Fragment Ions in a Low-Temperature Ion Trap [PDF]
We have applied conformer-selective infrared-ultraviolet (IR-UV) double-resonance photofragment spectroscopy at low temperatures in an ion trap mass spectrometer for the spectroscopic characterization of peptide fragment ions.

Chronologically sampled flight feathers permits recognition of individual molt-migrants due to varying protein sources [PDF]
This is a proof of concept paper based on chronological samples of growing feathers from geese thought to be molt-migrants. When molt-migrant birds initiate molt shortly after migrating to a new isoscape, isotope values measured along the length of their

Determination of 15N stable isotope natural abundances for assessing the use of saline reclaimed water in grapefruit [PDF]
We reported the results of an isotopic study aimed at evaluating the medium to long-term effects of different water qualities and deficit irrigation strategies on the ecophysiology of grapefruit in a 7-year-old plantation in SE Spain.

A low environmental impact system for fertirrigation of maize with cattle slurry [PDF]
The applicability of an alternative system for managing and distributing cattle slurry during irrigation on maize was evaluated. An experiment was carried out by equipping a traveller boom with drop tubes and fed from a hose-reel machine.

Positionally dependent ^(15)N fraction factors in the UV photolysis of N_2O determined by high resolution FTIR spectroscopy [PDF]
Positionally dependent fractionation factors for the photolysis of isotopomers of N_2O in natural abundance have been determined by high resolution FTIR spectroscopy at three photolysis wavelengths.

Potential uptake of dissolved organic matter by seagrasses and macroalgae [PDF]
Dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) acts as a large reservoir of fixed nitrogen. Whereas DON utilization is common in the microbial community, little is known about utilization by macrophytes.

Nitrogen mineralization in soils amended with sunnhemp, velvet bean and common bean residues
Nitrogen (15N) released from sunnhemp (Crotalaria juncea), velvet bean (Mucuna aterrima) and from Phaseolus bean residues was evaluated after incubation of the plant material in an Eutrudox and a Paleudalf, in a greenhouse experiment with pots containing
