Accurate estimation of biogeochemical substances from remote observations requires knowledge of Inherent Optical Properties (IOPs) and their mass specific representation (SIOPs). Corresponding measurements are rather scarce for perialpine lakes, which repr ...
Mixing of fresh (river) water and salty water (seawater or saline brine) in a control fashion would produces an electrical energy known as salinity gradient energy (SGE). Two main conversion technologies of SGE are membrane-based processes; pressure retard ...
Through a combination of bulk, interface, and interphase effects, water-in-salt electrolytes, employing a high salt concentration, offer a wider electrochemical stability window than traditional dilute aqueous electrolytes. Here we explore chemical stabili ...
Recent advancement in quantitative liquid-jet photoelectron spectroscopy enables the accurate determination of the absolute-scale electronic energetics of liquids and species in solution. The major objective of the present work is the determination of the ...
Clearwater Mesa Uames Ross Island, northeast Antarctic Peninsula) provides a unique opportunity to study solute dynamics and geochemical weathering in the pristine lacustrine systems of a high latitude environment. In order to determine major controls on t ...
Lakes and other confined water bodies are not exposed to tides, and their wind forcing is usually much weaker compared to ocean basins and estuaries. Hence, convective processes are often the dominant drivers for shaping mixing and stratification structure ...
By combining dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements and infrared (IR) spectroscopy with the interface- and bond-specificity of vibrational sum frequency generation scattering (SFS) spectroscopy, we probe several structural aspects of how zwitterionic ...
A combination of Fourier transform infrared and phase transition measurements as well as molecular computer simulations, and thermodynamic modeling were performed to probe the mechanisms by which guanidinium (Gnd(+)) salts influence the stability of the co ...
Aqueous drops of a well-defined size are often used as small containers for conducting chemical and biochemical reactions, cell assays and as templates to produce microparticles. To prevent their coalescence, they must be stabilized, for example, using sur ...
Water-in-salt electrolytes have enabled the development of novel high-voltage aqueous lithium-ion batteries. This study explores the reasons why analogous sodium electrolytes have struggled to reach the same level of electrochemical stability. Solution str ...
