Drivers of dissolved organic matter processing in subterranean estuaries
Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.Abstract Subterranean estuaries (i.e., seawater‐fresh groundwater mixing zones at coastal aquifers) are highly reactive boundaries between continental groundwater and coastal surface seawater. Because particulate organic matter is retained in shallow sediments, internal microbial transformations rely on dissolved organic matter (DOM) supply and ...

Relative sea‐level trends in southern Norway during the last millennium
Boreas, EarlyView.Relative sea level in southern Norway has been falling since c. 7000 cal. yr BP, but modern tide gauge data show rising relative sea level since at least 1960 CE. In this study, peat cores from a shallow coastal basin were analysed, using a multiproxy approach, to reconstruct relative sea level trends over the last millennium and to identify the onset ...

Combustion synthesis of Eu,Si‐doped AlN blue phosphor with varying Eu and Si concentrations
Journal of the American Ceramic Society, EarlyView.Eu,Si‐doped AlN blue phosphors were synthesized via combustion synthesis using Al, AlN, Eu₂O₃, Si₃N₄, and SrCO₃. The luminescence properties were investigated concerning Eu and Si concentrations, as well as Sr substitution to mitigate Eu content.

Lower variability of radionuclide activities in upland dairy products compared to soils and vegetation: Implication for environmental survey [PDF]
, 2007 Contamination of the environment by radionuclides is usually estimated using soil and grass sampling. However, radionuclides are often not homogeneously distributed in soils. In the alpine Mercantour region (Western Alps, France) a large heterogeneity in

Radioisotopes «economy of promises» : on the limits of biomedicine in public legitimization of nuclear activities [PDF]
, 2009 This paper aims to examine the rise and the fall of biomedicine in the public legitimization of the development of nuclear energy. Until the late 1950s, biological and medical applications of radioisotopes were presented as the most important successes ...
