Contribution of the Photo-Fenton Reaction to Hydroxyl Radical Formation Rates in River and Rain Water Samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The hydroxyl radical (OH radical) formation rates from the photo-Fenton reaction in river and rain water samples were determined by using deferoxamine mesylate (DFOM), which makes a stable and strong complex with Fe(III), resulting in a suppression of ...

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Photo‐Triggered, Fast, and Fluorogenic Thiophene‐Based Cycloalkynes for the Bioorthogonal Fluorescent Labeling of 1,3‐Dipole‐Tagged Molecules in No‐Wash Conditions

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Thiophene is king! The fusion of thiophene rings to cycloalkynes super‐charged their copper‐free click chemistry applications, by (1) enhancing the alkyne reactivity (fastest cyclooctyne to date) and (2) rendering the alkyne fluorogenic (with fluorescence enhancement up to 150‐fold upon reaction), making these bioorthogonal reagents ideal for tracking ...

Seeds of change: The impact of Ethiopia's direct seed marketing approach on smallholders' seed purchases and productivity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract While multiple factors explain low adoption rates of improved varieties by small‐scale farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa, a key supply‐side constraint is the limited availability of seed embodying new traits in the volume, quality, price, and timeliness required by farmers. This constraint is partly attributable to classical failures in the market

Water‐Mediated Phosphoryl Wires Stabilize Pathological Tau Fibrils

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Extended 1D phosphoryl “wires” stabilize in‐register amyloid tau fibrils, as demonstrated by multiple‐quantum spin‐counting NMR, TEM, and MD simulations, using fibrils of tau peptide jR2R3‐P301L (tau295–313) with phosphorylation at S305 or Y310. ABSTRACT Hyperphosphorylation of tau is a hallmark of tauopathies, with specific phosphorylation sites ...

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Design and implementation of rain water harvesting for domestic usage

open access: yes, 2015
Water is a vital component for all people on the planet. We generally underestimate it as a result of its accessibility but when in shortage, it turns into our most valuable resource.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.
