Time-resolved x-ray absorption spectroscopy: Watching atoms dance
The introduction of pump-probe techniques to the field of x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has allowed the monitoring of both structural and electronic dynamics of disordered systems in the condensed phase with unprecedented accuracy, both in time and in space. We present results on the electronically excited high-spin state structure of an Fe(II) molecular species, [Fe(bpy)3] , in aqueous s...

As a result, the process of replacing Young turned into a continuation of that argument, becoming quite vociferous and involving the popular press and...
متن کاملBeyond the Baldwin Effect: James Mark Baldwin’s ‘social heredity’, epigenetic inheritance and niche-construction
James Mark Baldwin is remembered today almost exclusively for his paper ‘A New Factor in Evolution’ (Baldwin, 1896a). The new factor, which he called ‘organic selection’ and which later became known as the Baldwin effect, was a process that could cause ‘accomodations’ the acquired adaptive responses of individual organisms to become hereditary. ‘Accomodations’ include physiological adaptations ...

Poppy, who also was a co-organiser of the meeting, leads a new research project called ASSETS (Attaining Sustainable Services from Ecosystems through Trade-off Scenarios). This project investigates two model regions at the forest–agriculture interface, one in Colombia and one in Malawi. The case studies cover around two million people, but the researchers believe that the results they obtain wi...

At the international level, there is an increasing awareness that many of the environmental problems that our civilisation has brought upon itself are either focused on the shorelines or most obvious in their vicinity. Fertiliser run-off from agricultural lands produces eutrophication of coastal waters, marine litter washes up on Norway’s otherwise flawless beaches, and disoriented whales as we...
