ABSTRACT The diffusion of metal ions in polymer electrolyte membranes is an important parameter for aging and capacity loss in electrochemical cells. Here, the diffusion coefficients of vanadium ions in Nafion membranes are studied. These are important to describe transportation of the ions through the membrane separator in vanadium redox flow ...

Integrated X‐Ray, Gamma Radiation, and Micro‐CT Techniques for Quantitative Wood Characterization
ABSTRACT The present research integrates microcomputed tomography (micro‐CT), x‐ray fluorescence, and gamma‐ray transmission to quantitatively characterize wood species. A total of 22 samples from seven species were analyzed for density (ρ), linear attenuation coefficient (μ), Compton scattering, micro‐CT gray values (GV), porosity, mass attenuation ...

We distributed a survey to global institutions housing bush dogs (Speothos venaticus) to collect data on factors which may affect litter survival. Information from the Zoological Information Management System (ZIMS) and studbook records supplemented this dataset. We found that within northern temperate regions, the number of pups reared to the age of 1
