[1] Our understanding of Earth’s carbon climate system depends critically upon interactions between rising atmospheric CO2, changing land use, and nitrogen limitation on vegetation growth. Using a global land model, we show how these factors interact locally to generate the global land carbon sink over the past 200 years. Nitrogen constraints were alleviated by N2 fixation in the tropics and by...

A single-sized dielectric cylinder-based metama-terial is fabricated from TiO2 nanoparticles, using a bottom-up approach. The sub-elements constituting the metalayer are embedded in a nonmagnetic transparent host matrix in the microwave regime and arranged in a square lattice. We demonstrate numerically and experimentally a broad-band magnetic activity. The key feature to achieve this per-forma...

This paper investigates the problem of designing a deterministic system matrix, that is measurement matrix, for sparse recovery. An efficient greedy algorithm is proposed in order to extract the class of sparse signal/image which cannot be reconstructed by l1-minimization for a fixed system matrix. Based on the polytope theory, the algorithm provides a geometric interpretation of the recovery c...

In the proposed approach, Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) formalism is used to...

Degradation of bis(2-chloroethyl) ether (BCEE) was observed to occur in two bacterial strains. Strain ENV481, a Xanthobacter sp. strain, was isolated by enrichment culturing of samples from a Superfund site located in the northeastern United States. The strain was able to grow on BCEE or 2-chloroethylethyl ether as the sole source of carbon and energy. BCEE degradation in strain ENV481 was faci...
