Disinfection processes such as chlorination, chloramination, and ozonation are a crucial measure to provide safe drinking water because they effectively inactivate pathogenic microorganisms. However, these processes can also lead to the formation of harmfu ...
We employ state-selective triple-resonance vibrational overtone spectroscopy for a direct measurement of the lowest dissociation energy, Do, in the (H2O)-O-18 molecule. The measured value of 41 154.22 +/- 0.25 cm(-1) is in an excellent agreement with that, ...
Stable isotope ratios combined with elemental compositions and molecular biomass data provide a powerful tool in Neoproterozoic palaeoenvironmental interpretations. Here, we report the results of an extensive organic and inorganic geochemical study perform ...
The Neoproterozoic sedimentary successions of the Sierras Bayas Group (SBG) are situated within the Tandilia Belt, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. The Loma Negra Formation (LNF) from the upper part of the SBG has been investigated using a combination of ...
We present a record of peatland development during the last 1000 years from Mauntschas mire in the eastern Swiss Alps (Upper Engadine valley; 1818 m a.s.l.) inferred from testate amoebae (pH and depth to the water table (DWT) reconstructions), stable oxyge ...
