GASEOUS NITROGEN LOSSES FROM CONVENTIONAL AND CHEMICAL SUMMERFALLOW

Isotopic evidence for large gaseous nitrogen losses from tropical rainforests.

The nitrogen isotopic composition (15N/14N) of forested ecosystems varies systematically worldwide. In tropical forests, which are elevated in 15N relative to temperate biomes, a decrease in ecosystem 15N/14N with increasing rainfall has been reported. This trend is seen in a set of well characterized Hawaiian rainforests, across which we have measured the 15N/14N of inputs and hydrologic losse...

Aqueous And Gaseous Nitrogen Losses Induced By Fertilizer Application

Gaseous nitrogen and carbon losses from pig manure derived from different diets.

Manipulation of the diets of pigs may alter the composition of the manure and thereby the environmental and agricultural qualities of the manure. Laboratory studies were performed to quantify the effect of manipulation of pig diets on the chemical composition of the derived manure (slurry), the potential emission of methane (CH4) and ammonia (NH3) during anaerobic storage of the manure, and the...

Gaseous Losses of Nitrogen from Green Plants. Ii. Studies with Excised Leaves in Nutrient Media.

In the previous paper (1) of this series, studies to determine whether gaseous losses of nitrogen occur from cultures of Chlorella and Lemna when grown on various sources of nitrogen, showed that no losses occurred except for one minor exception. In this one case slight losses of nitrogen from Chlorella cultures, grown on ammonium nitrate, did occur. The significance of this finding is somewhat...

chemical recycling of polycarbonate waste using conventional heating and microwave assisted method

پلی کربنات یکی از پلاستیکهای مهمی است که به صورت گسترده در تولید لوحهای فشرده، قطعات رایانه، مواد ساختمانی و غیره مورد استفاده قرار می گیرد. این پلیمر بصورت عمده از تراکم مونومر بیس فنولa (bpa) و کربنیل کلرید یا دی متیل کربنات ها بدست می آید. در سالهای اخیر بازیافت شیمیایی پلی کربنات بیشتر مورد توجه بوده است. بازیافت شیمیایی پلی کربنات برای بدست آوردن مواد اولیه آن با روشهای متفاوتی مانند تجزی...
