Equilibrium responses of global net primary production and carbon storage to doubled atmospheric carbon dioxide: sensitivity to changes in vegetation nitrogen concentration [PDF]
We ran the terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM) for the globe at 0.5° resolution for atmospheric CO2 concentrations of 340 and 680 parts per million by volume (ppmv) to evaluate global and regional responses of net primary production (NPP) and carbon ...

Analysis of Nitrogen Loading Reductions for Wastewater Treatment Facilities and Non-Point Sources in the Great Bay Estuary Watershed [PDF]
In 2009, the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (DES) published a proposal for numeric nutrient criteria for the Great Bay Estuary. The report found that total nitrogen concentrations in most of the estuary needed to be less than 0.3 mg N/

Characterization of Fe-N nanocrystals and nitrogen–containing inclusions in (Ga,Fe)N thin films using transmission electron microscopy [PDF]
Nanometric inclusions filled with nitrogen, located adjacent to FenN (n¼3 or 4) nanocrystals within (Ga,Fe)N layers, are identified and characterized using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS ...

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.

Titanium-nitrogen reaction investigated for application to gettering systems [PDF]
Titanium is one of several gettering materials available for removing nitrogen from inert gases. The reaction rate of titanium-metal sponge and nitrogen in argon-nitrogen mixtures was studied at 900 degrees C.

Niche differentiation in nitrogen metabolism among methanotrophs within an operational taxonomic unit [PDF]
Background: The currently accepted thesis on nitrogenous fertilizer additions on methane oxidation activity assumes niche partitioning among methanotrophic species, with activity responses to changes in nitrogen content being dependent on the in situ ...

Desirable Host Plant Qualities in Wild Rice \u3ci\u3e(Zizania Palustris)\u3c/i\u3e for Infestation by the Rice Worm \u3ci\u3eApamea Apamiformis\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [PDF]
The rate at which an insect infests hosts by ovipositioning and/or subsequent growth of larvae often depends on specific desirable host plant qualities.

Fertilization: trade-offs between manure abatement and plant productivity [PDF]
In 2005, 30% of the Flemish farms faced a manure excess, while at aggregated level still 9.7% of the emission rights were unused. This means that, despite the various possibilities, Flemish farmers do not succeed in an effective exchange of manure ...

BrCF2CN for photocatalytic cyanodifluoromethylation
Considering the unique electronic properties of the CF2 and the CN groups, the CF2CN group has significant potential in drug and agrochemical development, as well as material sciences. However, incorporating a CF2CN group remains a considerable challenge.
