Religion as practices of attachment and materiality: the making of Buddhism in contemporary London [PDF]

, 2016
This article aims to explore Buddhism’s often-overlooked presence on London’s urban landscape, showing how its quietness and subtlety of approach has allowed the faith to grow largely beneath the radar. It argues that Buddhism makes claims to urban space

Moderate Fire Temperatures Affect the Structure of Clayey Oxisol Aggregates

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfires have become increasingly frequent and intense worldwide, raising concerns about their impacts on soil systems. However, the thermal responses of clay‐rich Oxisols, dominated by Fe and Al oxides, remain poorly understood. In this study, samples from the 0 to 5 cm layer of six Oxisols were subjected to controlled heating at ...

Direct Ambient Mass Spectrometry for Food, Beverage, and Agricultural Sample Analysis and Research

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ambient and direct mass spectrometry (MS) methods are becoming increasingly used for the rapid analysis of food, beverage and agricultural samples. Novel ionization approaches combined with targeted, or untargeted workflows provide analytical outcomes within a greatly reduced time period compared to traditional separation science coupled with ...

Ammonia emissions from deciduous forest after leaf fall [PDF]

, 2013
The understanding of biochemical feedback mechanisms in the climate system is lacking knowledge in relation to bi-directional ammonia (NH3) exchange between natural ecosystems and the atmosphere.

First genome sequence of a European Alternaria brassicae isolate and genes involved in early development of alternaria leaf spot on Brassica juncea

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This article reports the first genome sequence of a UK Alternaria brassicae isolate. Dual RNA‐sequencing profiling of A. brassicae‐infected Brassica juncea leaves identified differentially expressed genes involved in pathogenicity and host response pathways in moderately resistant Sej‐2 (2) and moderately susceptible Pusa Jaikisan cultivars.

Global production networks in the aerospace industry: the role of risk and revenue sharing partnerships [PDF]

, 2012
The last 30 years have seen a major trend towards the internationalisation of production. In some industry sectors this process has become global as production systems have been integrated on an inter-continental basis.

Structure of Turbulence in Katabatic Flows below and above the Wind-Speed Maximum

, 2015
Measurements of small-scale turbulence made over the complex-terrain atmospheric boundary layer during the MATERHORN Program are used to describe the structure of turbulence in katabatic flows.

Where numerical weather prediction meets large‐eddy simulations in a convective boundary layer during the FESSTVaL field experiment

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We exploit the Field Experiment on Sub‐mesoscale Spatio‐Temporal Variability in Lindenberg (FESSTVaL) to compare the performance of an NWP model at sub‐km resolutions with a traditional LES model. Focusing on clear‐sky ABL turbulence (June 14), shallow convective clouds and surface radiation (June 27), and deep convective cold pools (June 29), we find ...

Conversion of Renewable Lignocellulosic Biomass‐Derived Nanocellulose into Graphene via Pyrolysis and High Shear‐Mediated Exfoliation

Small Structures, EarlyView.
This study uses nanocellulose crystals (NCCs) as the precursor for graphene production. The NCCs are pyrolyzed at 500–800 °C and then converted to graphene in the vortex fluidic device using only water as the solvent. The graphene shows a relatively high quality and TEM confirming <6 layers.
