Diffusion timescale conundrum in contact metamorphism: Oxygen isotope and trace element profiles in dolomite

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Lukas Baumgartner

Successful application of diffusion chronometry is based on detailed knowledge of diffusion parameters obtained from laboratory experiments, which also need to be upscaled to be applied to natural samples. While generally applicable, several examples of di ...

Demography of galactic technosignatures

Claudio Grimaldi

Probabilistic arguments about the existence of technological life beyond Earth traditionally refer to the Drake equation to draw possible estimates of the number of technologically advanced civilizations releasing, either intentionally or not, electromagne ...

Thermal activation and aging of a V2O3/WO3-TiO2 catalyst for the selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Rob Jeremiah G. Nuguid, Adrian Marberger

Real-world vanadium-based catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3 are occasionally exposed to high temperatures, which can induce catalyst aging. In this work, a 2.0 wt% V2O5/WO3-TiO2 catalyst based on commercial WO3-TiO2 was l ...

Investigating Earth's Formation History Through Copper and Sulfur Metal-Silicate Partitioning During Core-Mantle Differentiation

James Badro

Identifying extant materials that act as compositional proxies for Earth is key to understanding its accretion. Copper and sulfur are both moderately volatile elements; however, they display different geochemical behavior (e.g., phase affinities). Thus, in ...

Cubic zirconia in >2370◦C impact melt records Earth’s hottest crust

Cyril Cayron

Bolide impacts influence primordial evolution of planetary bodies because they can cause instantaneous melting and vaporization of both crust and impactors. Temperatures reached by impact-generated silicate melts are unknown because meteorite impacts are e ...

Gravel bars are sites of increased CO2 outgassing in stream corridors

Tom Ian Battin

Streams are significant sources of CO2 to the atmosphere. Estimates of CO2 evasion fluxes (fCO2) from streams typically relate to the free flowing water but exclude geomorphological structures within the stream corridor. We found that gravel bars (GBs) are ...

Fiber optic distributed temperature sensing for the determination of the nocturnal atmospheric boundary layer height

Marc Parlange, Wolf Hendrik Huwald

A new method for measuring air temperature profiles in the atmospheric boundary layer at high spatial and temporal resolution is presented. The measurements are based on Raman scattering distributed temperature sensing (DTS) with a fiber optic cable attach ...

Selectivity of montmorillonite catalyzed prebiotic reactions of D, L-nucleotides

The montmorillonite-catalyzed reactions of the 5′-phosphorimidazolides of D, L-adenosine (D, L-ImpA) (Figure 1a. N = A, R = H) and D, L-uridine (Figure 1a., N = U, R = H) yields oligomers that were as long as 7 mers and 6 mers, respectively. The reactions ...
