Local Effects in the X-ray Absorption Spectrum of Salt Water

Nicola Marzari, Giulia Galli Gygi

Both first-principles molecular dynamics and theoretical X-ray absorption spectroscopy have been used to investigate the aqueous solvation of cations in 0.5 M MgCl(2), CaCl(2), and NaCl solutions. We focus here on the species-specific effects that Mg(2+), ...

Tidal influence on BTEX biodegradation in sandy coastal aquifers

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Clare Robinson

A numerical study was conducted to investigate the influence of tides on the fate of terrestrially-derived BTEX discharging through an unconfined aquifer to coastal waters. Previous studies have revealed that tide-induced seawater circulations create an ac ...

Effect of the surface charge on ion transport through nanoslits

Philippe Renaud, Harald Van Lintel, Reto Bruno Schoch

A description of ion transport through geometrically defined nanoslits is presented. It is characterized by the effective surface charge density and was obtained by impedance spectroscopy measurements of electrolytes with different physico-chemical propert ...

Export of Pollution from Europe: Seasonal and Interannual Variation

Isabelle Bey

Pollution can undergo long-range transport and impact the tropospheric chemistry thousands of kilometers downwind from the source region. Recently, there is interest in the intercontinental transport (ICT) of pollution between the main industrial regions o ...

On the validity of Darcy’s law for stable high- concentration displacements in granular porous media

David Andrew Barry

Recently, it has been suggested that Darcy's Law might not be applicable for modelling miscible, density-dependent flow in porous media. To investigate this, three sets of careful laboratory column experiments were performed on coarse and medium sands, con ...
