Contribution of ultrafine particles to alkalinity in a limestone‐treated waterbody

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract While it is well recognized that suspended particles can bias titration‐based total alkalinity (TA), whether addition of minerals for alkalinity enhancement introduces systematic TA artifacts remains poorly quantified. To address this gap, we quantified the contribution of ultrafine particles (< 0.2 μm) to TA titration introduced by limestone (

Prosody by phase : evidence from focus intonation–Wh-scope correspondence in Japanese [PDF]

, 2004
Japanese wh-questions always exhibit focus intonation (FI). Furthermore, the domain of FI exhibits a correspondence to the wh-scope. I propose that this phonology-semantics correspondence is a result of the cyclic computation of FI, which is explained ...
