Summer temperature trend over the past two millennia using air content in Himalayan ice

Jérôme Chappellaz

A historical record of changes in the N2O isotope composition is important for a better understanding of the global N2O atmospheric budget. Here we have combined measurements of trapped gases in the firn and in ice cores of one Arctic site (North GReenland ...

Evolution of toxicity during melamine photocatalysis with TiO2 suspensions

César Pulgarin, Juan Kiwi, Sandra Parra Cardona

The fate of melamine has been studied under UV light irradiation (medium pressure mercury arc) in the presence of TiO2 and H2O2. The increase in the concentration of aromatic and aliphatic photo-products were determined in solution concomitantly with the d ...
