The role of Organophosphate Esters Flame Retardants and plasticizers (OPEs) in Phosphorus Cycle in the atmosphere of the Mediterranean Sea

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki, Christos Panagiotopoulos

The atmosphere is considered as an important external nutrient source for the marine environment, especially in remote ocean waters or the oligotrophic Mediterranean Sea. Phosphorus (P) is a critical nutrient affecting primary productivity in large areas o ...

Mechanistic Investigations of Nickamine-catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Alkenes: Nickel Nanoparticles Are the Active Species

Xile Hu, Marten Leendert Ploeger

Hydrosilylation is an important chemical process for the synthesis of organosilanes and for the production of silicone polymers. The wide variety of catalysts developed for this reaction generally follow a Chalk-Harrod, or a sigma-bond metathesis mechanism ...

Using small-scale measurements to estimate hypolimnetic oxygen depletion in a deep lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Low oxygen concentrations in lakes and reservoirs are an ongoing environmental concern, particularly in light of increasing anthropogenic activity and climate change. Oxygen depletion processes in lakes are still not completely understood and a variety of ...

Fast Potentiometric CO2 Sensor for High-Resolution in Situ Measurements in Fresh Water Systems

Nadezda Pankratova, Bernhard Wehrli

We present a new potentiometric sensor principle and a calibration protocol for in situ profiling of dissolved CO2 with high temporal and spatial resolution in fresh water lakes. The sensor system is based on the measurement of EMF between two solid-contac ...

Oxygen depletion in Lake Geneva

Robert Vincent Schwefel

Low oxygen concentrations remain a global concern for the ecological health of lakes. High nutrient inputs and climate-induced changes in stratification and mixing are anthropogenic threats which largely impact aquatic oxygen budgets and overall ecosystem ...

Oxygen depletion in stratified lakes - why shallow and deep lakes react differently

Alfred Johny Wüest, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Oxygen is the most important element in natural waters for any higher aquatic life, such as fish. As with humans, almost all members of aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to breathe. Building on this, treatment of drinking water is easier for oxic than for ano ...

Effects of climate change on deep-water oxygen and winter mixing in a deep lake (Lake Geneva)

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Oxygen is the most important dissolved gas for lake ecosystems. Because low oxygen concentrations are an ongoing problem in many parts of the oceans and numerous lakes, oxygen depletion processes have been intensively studied over the last decades and were ...

Equation of state of liquid mercury to 520 K and 7 GPa from acoustic velocity measurements

Livia Eleonora Bove Kado

Ultrafast acoustics measurements on liquid mercury have been performed at high pressure and temperature in a diamond anvil cell using picosecond acoustic interferometry. We extract the density of mercury from adiabatic sound velocities using a numerical it ...

Factors affecting the development and dynamics of hypoxia in a large shallow stratified lake: Hourly to seasonal patterns

Damien Bouffard

[1] The examination of hypoxia in the hypolimnion of large lakes traditionally focuses on the assessment of its spatial and temporal extent and its effect on water quality. In Lake Erie, hypoxia typically occurs between July and October in the central basi ...

Hypolimnetic Oxygen Depletion in Eutrophic Lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Beat Mueller

The oxygen-consuming processes in the hypolimnia of freshwater lakes leading to deep-water anoxia are still not well understood, thereby constraining suitable management concepts. This study presents data obtained from 11 eutrophic lakes and suggests a mod ...
