A review on LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.33) cathode materials for rechargeable Li-ion batteries
2021
Abstract Electrochemical and physical properties of LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.33) electrode materials prepared by self-combustion were investigated. Pure LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.33) materials with single phase and R-3 m layered structure were obtained as confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy are commonly used to determine the chemical composition and the distribution of particle size of the three samples. The electrochemical performances of the samples were measured at different current rates in the 3–4.5 V potential range. The studied materials exhibit good discharge capacity. The magnetic susceptibility measurements and …
Ultraviolet radiation exposure of a high arctic lake in Svalbard during the Holocene
2014
Long-term fluctuations in lake-water optical properties were examined using a Holocene sediment sequence and multi-proxy palaeolimnological approach in Lake Einstaken, Nordaustlandet, Svalbard. UV-absorbance of sedimentary cladoceran remains provided information on underwater UV exposure and changes in lake-catchment coupling processes were inferred from sediment geochemistry. In addition, aquatic community succession was used as an indicator for lake-water bio-optical properties and a Holocene record of sun activity (sunspots) was utilized to evaluate long-term solar forcing. The results indicated that the UV-absorbance of cladoceran remains was highest (i.e. maximum UV-induced pigmentatio…
An alien fish threatens an endangered parasitic bivalve: the relationship between brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and freshwater pearl mussel (Ma…
2016
Host–parasite interactions may play a significant role in biological invasions: for example, an invader may benefit from lower infectivity by native parasites in competition against the native hosts (‘enemy release hypothesis’). The invasive North American brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is replacing the native salmonid hosts of the freshwater pearl mussel (FPM, Margaritifera margaritifera) in northern Europe, but the suitability of brook trout as a host for FPM is poorly known. In this study its suitability was investigated using an array of laboratory and field experiments, and several FPM populations from a catchment in northern Finland. The occurrence of brook trout in FPM rivers in…
Cyclical and stochastic thermal variability affects survival and growth in brook trout
2019
Directional changes in temperature have well-documented effects on ectotherms, yet few studies have explored how increased thermal variability (a concomitant of climate change) might affect individual fitness. Using a common-garden experimental protocol, we investigated how bidirectional temperature change can affect survival and growth of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) and whether the survival and growth responses differ between two populations, using four thermal-variability treatments (mean: 10 °C; range: 7–13 °C): (i) constancy; (ii) cyclical fluctuations every two days; (iii) low stochasticity (random changes every 2 days); (iv) high stochasticity (random changes daily). Recently …
Construcción de puentes y avenidas fluviales: algunos debates técnicos en el academicismo ilustrado del Reino de Valencia
2020
Con el afianzamiento de las políticas reformistas y la consolidación de las academias de bellas artes, durante el último tercio del siglo XVIII se desarrolló una creciente polémica entre los arquitectos y los maestros de obra en torno a la proyección y diseño de obra civil, particularmente la relacionada con ambientes fluviales. En este artículo se valora, con diferentes ejemplos, la incidencia de este debate en la proyección de puentes y su capacidad de resistencia a las avenidas fluviales. During the last third of the 18th century, reformist policies and the consolidation of the fine arts academies were consolidated. This fact affected the architects and the master builders with a policy …
A Stage-Based Approach to Therapy in Parkinson’s Disease
2019
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that features progressive, disabling motor symptoms, such as bradykinesia, rigidity, and resting tremor. Nevertheless, some non-motor symptoms, including depression, REM sleep behavior disorder, and olfactive impairment, are even earlier features of PD. At later stages, apathy, impulse control disorder, neuropsychiatric disturbances, and cognitive impairment can present, and they often become a heavy burden for both patients and caregivers. Indeed, PD increasingly compromises activities of daily life, even though a high variability in clinical presentation can be observed among people affected. Nowadays, symptomatic drugs and non-phar…

The problem of Authorship of Xenophon’s Cynegeticus
2012
El Cinegético de Jenofonte ha planteado desde finales del S. XIX problemas de autoría total o parcial, así como problemas de unidad de la obra. Entre los estudiosos las posturas son variadas: Radermacher y Breitenbach rechazan completamente su autoría, Marchant niega la autenticidad del primer capítulo, Delebecque y Gray la admiten para toda la obra. A partir de la comparación con escritos genuinos de Jenofonte como Eq. Mag., Eq. y Vect., un análisis de estadística lingüística confirma que su autor no es Jenofonte, que hay un único autor para todo el Cinegético y que este autor es contemporáneo, por una parte, de Jenofonte y, por otra parte, de los tratados hipocráticos Art. y Fract. y de s…
Chemical Compositions and Antioxidant Activities of Essential Oils, and Their Combinations, Obtained from Flavedo By-Product of Seven Cultivars of Si…
2022
In this work, seven Citrus aurantium essential oils (EOs) derived from flavedo of cultivars ‘Canaliculata’, ‘Consolei’, ‘Crispifolia’, ‘Fasciata’, ‘Foetifera’, ‘Listata’, and ‘Bizzaria’ were investigated. EOs were also combined in 1:1 (v/v) ratio to identify possible synergism or antagonism of actions. GC-MS analysis was done to investigate Eos’ phytochemical profiles. The antioxidant activity was studied by using a multi-target approach based on FRAP, DPPH, ABTS, and β-carotene bleaching tests. A great difference was observed in EOs’ phytochemical profiles. d-limonene (33.35–89.17%) w…
