The role of Mediterranean wetlands in climate regulation and greenhouse gases exchanges: from carbon biogeochemistry to European water and nature Dir…
2022
Atesa la seua alta activitat biogeoquímica, els aiguamolls són un dels tipus d'ecosistemes més actius en el cicle global del carboni, amb altes taxes d'intercanvi de carboni i de gasos d'efecte hivernacle (GEH), i, per tant, un gran potencial de regulació climàtica. Una de les parts més importants de la biogeoquímica del carboni als aiguamolls està lligada a les taxes metabòliques, a partir del coneixement de les quals es pot determinar un balanç de carboni associat amb el potencial intercanvi de carboni amb l'atmosfera. La seua capacitat per retindre carboni i mitigar el canvi climàtic, o, per contra, d'alliberar més GEH, i contribuir a l'escalfament global, es determina pel balanç de carb…

NMR Spectroscopic and quantum chemical characterization of the (E)- and (Z)- isomers of the penta-1,3-dienyl-2-cation
2003
Dilute solutions of the (E )− and (Z )− isomers of pent-1,3-dienyl-2-cations (1) were obtained from reaction of 4-chloro-1,2-pentadiene (2) with SbF5 in SO2ClF/SO2F2 at −135 °C using high-vacuum co-condensation techniques. The experimental NMR spectra of the mixture of the two isomers were compared with quantum chemical 13C NMR chemical shift calculations at HF-SCF, MP2, CCSD and CCSD(T) levels using MP2/tzp geometries. Quantum chemical shift calculations were performed with a tzp basis (9s5p1d/5s3p1d) for carbon and a dz basis (4s/2s) for hydrogen using gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs). The HF-SCF calculations deviate significantly for the positively charged carbon atoms of the ally…
Synthesis of 8,9-dihydrodipyrazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-f][1,5]diazocin-10(1H)-one. A new ring system
1995
8,9-Dihydrodipyrazolo[3,4-b:4′,3′-f][1,5]diazocin-10(1H)-ones 7 were prepared by cyclization of 1-ethyl-N,3-dimethyl-4-acetamido-N-(1-R1-3-R2-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxamides 6 by a Bischler-Napieralski cyclization. A complete assignment of the chemical shifts to the carbon atoms of compound 7 was performed by different nmr experiments, such as DEPT and XHDEPT for onebond CH correlations and COLOC experiments for long-range C-H correlations.
Oxidation, efflux, and isotopic fractionation of methane during autumnal turnover in a polyhumic, boreal lake
2007
[1] We studied the oxidation and efflux of methane (CH4) in a small, polyhumic lake, Mekkojarvi (southern Finland), during 6 weeks in autumn when the stability of the water mass first weakened, temporarily restabilized, and finally mixed completely. During the summer stratification period, CH4 had accumulated in the anoxic hypolimnion to high concentrations (>150 mmol m−3). Gradual mixing of the water column during the autumn allowed access to both oxygen and CH4 by aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) deeper in the water column. Thus the bulk (∼83–88%) of the CH4 accumulated in the hypolimnion was subsequently consumed by MOB while only 12–17% was lost from the lake to the atmosphere a…
Size dependence of the Josephson critical behavior in pyrolytic graphite TEM lamellae
2014
We have studied the transport characteristics of TEM lamellae of different widths obtained from a graphite sample with electrical contacts at the edges of the embedded interfaces. The temperature dependence of the resistance, as well as the current-voltage characteristics, are compatible with the existence of Josephson-coupled superconducting regions. The transition temperature at which the Josephson behavior sets in decreases with a decreasing interface width and vanishes for widths below 200 nm. This interface-size dependence provides an explanation for differences observed in the transport behavior of graphite-based samples with interfaces, and it appears to be related to the influence o…
Effect of humidity on the hysteresis of single walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistors
2008
Single walled carbon nanotube field-effedt transistores (SWCNT FETs) are attributed as possible building blocks for future molecular electronics. But often these transistors seem to randomly display hysteresis in their transfer characteristics. One reason for this is suggested to be water molecules adsorbed to the surface of the gate dielectric in this study we investigate the thysteresis of SWCNT FETs at different relative humidities. We find that SWCNT FETs having atomic layer deposited (ALD) Hf0 2 -Ti0 2 .- Hf0 2 as a gate dielectric retain their. ambient condition hysteresis better in dry N2 environment than the more commonly used SiO 2 gate oxide.
Carbon use efficiency variability from MODIS data
2017
[EN] Carbon use efficiency (CUE) describes how efficiently plants incorporate the carbon fixed during photosynthesis into biomass gain and can be calculated as the ratio between net primary production (NPP) and gross primary production (GPP). In this work, annual CUE has been obtained from annual GPP and NPP MODIS products for the peninsular Spain study area throughout eight years. CUE is spatially and temporally analyzed in terms of the vegetation type and annual precipitation and annual average air temperature. Results show that dense vegetation areas with moderate to high levels of precipitation present lower CUE values, whereas more arid areas present the highest CUE values. However, th…
The Influence of Stimulation Techniques on the Microbiological Changes and n-Alkane Transitions in the Soil Contaminated of Petroleum-Derived Substan…
2019
Removal of petroleum products from contaminated soil is a long-term process requiring attention and constant monitoring. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Fyre-Zyme enzyme preparation and/or calcium carbonate on microbiological changes and conversion of n-aliphatic hydrocarbons in soil contaminated of petroleum-derived substances. The material for testing was soil contaminated with petroleum substances. The total concentration of n-alkanes with a C8–C40 chain length was 420.1 mg·kg−1 DM. The pot tests were carried out by introducing stimulators. As a decomposition promoter for n-alkanes in contaminated soil, a 6% water solution of Fyre-Zyme and/or 1% sterile CaCO3 was use…
