Nitrogen Loss from Pristine Carbonate-Rock Aquifers of the Hainich Critical Zone Exploratory (Germany) Is Primarily Driven by Chemolithoautotrophic Anammox Processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Despite the high relevance of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) for nitrogen loss from marine systems, its relative importance compared to denitrification has less been studied in freshwater ecosystems, and our knowledge is especially scarce for ...

Examination of the seepage face boundary condition in subsurface and coupled surface/subsurface hydrological models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A seepage face is a nonlinear dynamic boundary that strongly affects pressure head distributions, water table fluctuations, and flow patterns. Its handling in hydrological models, especially under complex conditions such as heterogeneity and coupled ...

An Ionic Limit to Life in the Deep Subsurface

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The physical and chemical factors that can limit or prevent microbial growth in the deep subsurface are not well defined. Brines from an evaporite sequence were sampled in the Boulby Mine, United Kingdom between 800 and 1300 m depth.

Atomic oxygen adsorption and incipient oxidation of the Pb(111) surface: A density-functional theory study

open access: yes, 2007
We study the atomic oxygen adsorption on Pb(111) surface by using density-functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation and a supercell approach.

Habitability of Mars: How Welcoming Are the Surface and Subsurface to Life on the Red Planet?

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Mars is a planet of great interest in the search for signatures of past or present life beyond Earth. The years of research, and more advanced instrumentation, have yielded a lot of evidence which may be considered by the scientific community as proof of

Upper ocean climate of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea during the Holocene Insolation Maximum – a model study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
ine thousand years ago (9 ka BP), the Northern Hemisphere experienced enhanced seasonality caused by an orbital configuration close to the minimum of the precession index.

Mechanized and irrigated coffee cultivation promotes physical subsurface constraints in Oxisols [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
Soils of the Cerrados (Brazilian Savanna) are deep, well-structured, and well-drained, with flat to gently undulating terrain that favors mechanization for coffee cultivation. However, these soils are susceptible to compaction. This study aimed to assess

Direct subsurface absorption of hydrogen on Pd(111)

open access: yes, 1995
We summarize and discuss some of the available experimental and theoretical data important for understanding the role played by subsurface sites in dissociative chemisorption calculations for the H$_2$/Pd(111) system.

The Johnson homomorphism and its kernel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We give a new proof of a celebrated theorem of Dennis Johnson that asserts that the kernel of the Johnson homomorphism on the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group is generated by separating twists. In fact, we prove a more general result that also

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for
