Introduction: The cooperation between Dieter Stöffler and Ernst-Mach-Institut (EMI) [1-14] goes back to 1972 when first experiments were performed to shock single crystal feldspars by steel plates that were accelerated with an explosive plane wave generator [1,7]. The shock experiments initiated a series of studies that required versatile and reliable test methods for the generation of Hugoniot...

The Northern Dabie Complex in east central China lies between the Sino–Korean plate to the north and the Yangtze plate to the south. The Northern Dabie Complex has been variously proposed to represent a Paleozoic magmatic arc on the Sino–Korean plate, an exhumed piece of subducted Yangtze plate crust, or crust produced almost entirely by Cretaceous extension-related magmatism. Trace element com...

[1] We use a synoptic sampling of stream water to quantify the effect of soil type, rock type, deforestation extent determined by Landsat TM imagery, and urban population density on stream solute concentrations for 60 different watersheds in the dry season and 49 in the wet season in the southwestern Brazilian Amazon basin. Catchment areas range between 18 and 12,500 km. Soil exchangeable catio...
