Climate change and environmental planning: Working to build community resilience and adaptive capacity in Washington State, USA
(2009-07-01)
This work focuses on the efforts being made by King County, Washington to respond to the challenges of global climate change, concentrating on both mitigation and adaptation. King County is a leader in the United States ...
Modeling Short-Term Soil−Water Distribution of Aromatic Amines
(1998-08-12)
The applicability of a distributed parameter model for describing the distribution of aniline and α-naphthylamine between soil and aqueous phases at short contact times was assessed. Mass action equations considered in the ...
Modeling Competitive Cation Exchange of Aromatic Amines in Water-Saturated Soils
(2001-06-01)
Competitive association to several components of soil through ion exchange processes influences the fate of organic cations in the environment. To examine these processes, the distributions of aniline and 1-aminonaphthalene ...
Modeling Abiotic Processes of Aniline in Water-Saturated Soils
(2000-03-18)
The long-term interactions of aromatic amines with soils are important in defining the fate and transport of these compounds in the environment. Abiotic loss of aniline from the aqueous phase to the soil phase occurs with ...
Heterogeneous photochemical reactions of decabromodiphenyl ether
(2009-11-03)
Brominated diphenyl ethers area major class of brominated flame retardants, with production of decabromodiphenyl ether (DBDPE) contributing significantly to this total. Although little is known about the mechanisms and ...
Scintillometer networks for calibration and validation of energy balance and soil moisture remote sensing algorithms
(2007-05-07)
Accurate estimation of sensible and latent heat fluxes as well as soil moisture from remotely sensed satellite images poses a great challenge. Yet, it is critical to face this challenge since the estimation of spatial and ...
Induced Desorption of DDT, DDD, and DDE from a Contaminated Sediment
(1997-03-01)
Release profiles of p,p′-DDT, p,p′-DDD, and p,p′-DDE from sediment collected from Indian Creek, Alabama, were measured with a gas purge-induced desorption technique and compared to a model developed in this work. DDT entered ...
Role of pH in partitioning and cation exchange of aromatic amines on water-saturated soils
(2001-08-04)
Predicting the reversible interactions between aromatic amines and soil is essential for assessing the mobility, bioavailability and exposure from contaminated sites. Reversible sorption mechanisms of aniline and α-naphthylamine ...
Microstructural And Mechanical Study of The Al-20Sn (MASS%) Alloy Processed By Equal-Channel Angular Pressing By Route C
(2013-05-25)
In this work, the feasibility of an Al–20Sn (mass%) alloy to improve its mechanical properties through the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) process is presented and discussed. Al–20Sn (mass%) alloy samples with a ...
Monitoring of Levels Moisture Soil Based on Electroresistive Methods: Case of the Gamboa Area, Panama Canal
(1905-07-02)
El objetivo principal de esta primera etapa de investigación se centra en obtener información referente a las características de los niveles freáticos en dos importantes zonas del sitio de Gamboa – área del Canal de Panamá: ...
