Temporal variability in trace metal solubility in a paddy soil not reflected in uptake by rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]
, 2016 Alternating flooding and drainage conditions have a strong influence on redox chemistry and the solubility of trace metals in paddy soils. However, current knowledge of how the effects of water management on trace metal solubility are linked to trace ...

Metal contamination in a sediment core from Osaka Bay during the last 400 years
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2022 Osaka Bay adjacent to the Kyoto–Osaka–Kobe metropolitan area was affected by severe metal pollution during the twentieth century; yet little is known about the trace metal sources and pre-industrial human activities.

Metals in the shell of Bathymodiolus azoricus from a hydrothermal vent site on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge [PDF]
, 2007 Specimens of the mussel Bathymodiolus azoricus were collected from Menez Gwen, a relatively shallow (850 m) hydrothermal vent field on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Each bivalve shell (n = 21) was individually cleaned by selective chemical.

The importance of biomass net uptake for a trace metal budget in a forest stand in north-eastern France [PDF]
, 2010 The trace metal (TM: Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) budget (stocks and annual fluxes) was evaluated in a forest stand (silver fir, Abies alba Miller) in north-eastern France.

Contact Dependence of Carrier Injection in Carbon Nanotubes: An Ab Initio Study [PDF]
, 2006 We combine ab initio density functional theory with transport calculations to provide a microscopic basis for distinguishing between good and poor metal contacts to nanotubes. Comparing Ti and Pd as examples of different contact metals, we trace back the

Quantifying physiological influences on otolith microchemistry [PDF]
, 2015 Trace element concentrations in fish earstones (‘otoliths’) are widely used to discriminate spatially discrete populations or individuals of marine fish, based on a commonly held assumption that physiological influences on otolith composition are minor ...
