A ruthenium-carbamato-complex derived from a siloxylated amine and carbon dioxide for the oxidative a-cyanation of aromatic and cyclic tertiary amines
Download2013-10-09
The ruthenium carbamate complex derived from 3-trimethoxysilyl-1- propyl amine and carbon dioxide was found to be a novel catalyst for the oxidative cyanation of aromatic and cyclic tertiary amines to corresponding a-amino nitriles in high to excellent yields by using hydrogen peroxide and...

Characterizing the performance of ecosystem models across time scales: A spectral analysis of the North American Carbon Program site-level synthesis
Download2011
Black, T.A., Izaurralde, R.C., Lokupitiya, E., Munger, J.W., Schaefer, K., Weng, E., Richardson, A.D., Altaf Arain, M., Luo, Y., Ciais, P., Ricciuto, D.M., Stoy, P.C., Dietze, M.C., Poulter, B., Barr, A.G., Liu, S., Hollinger, D., Tian, H., Suyker, A.E., Verbeeck, H., Price, D.T., Grant, R.F., Peng, C., Baker, I.T., Vargas, R., Anderson, R.S., Tonitto, C., Sahoo, A.K., Chen, J.M., Flanagan, L.B., Riley, W.J., Wang, W., Lafleur, P., Gough, C.M., Verma, S.B., Kucharik, C.J.
Ecosystem models are important tools for diagnosing the carbon cycle and projecting its behavior across space and time. Despite the fact that ecosystems respond to drivers at multiple time scales, most assessments of model performance do not discriminate different time scales. Spectral methods,...

Effects of recreational traffic on alpine plant communities in the northern Canadian Rockies
Download2012
MacDonald, S. E., Crisfield, V., Gould, J.
Abstract: Recreational activities in alpine areas have been increasing in recent decades, creating the need to improve our understanding of the impacts of these activities and how they are best managed. We explored impacts of recreational trail use on dry alpine meadows in the northern Canadian...

Interannual variability in trophic status of shallow lakes on the boreal Plain: Is there a climate signal?
Download2008
Devito, K.J., Bayley, S.E., Creed, I.F., Sass, G.Z.
We explored relations between climate and trophic status of shallow lakes (lake area > 5 ha, mean depth < 3.2 m) located on the subhumid western Boreal Plain of Canada. Correlation and regression analyses were used to assess the association between indicators of climate and satellite-based...

Nielsen, S. E., Haney, A., Kirschbaum, C.D.
We investigated vegetation responses in terms of canopy, ground-layer diversity, and ecological species groups using two restoration treatments at two degraded oak barren and savanna sites in central Wisconsin, USA. The two restoration models tested were (1) process-only, which reintroduced fire...

Flannigan, M.D., Krawchuk, M.A., Bowman, L.M., Moritz, M.A., Parisien, M.A., Parks, S.A.
In the boreal forest of North America, as in any fire-prone biome, three environmental factors must coincide for a wildfire to occur: an ignition source, flammable vegetation, and weather that is conducive to fire. Despite recent advances, the relative importance of these factors remains the...

Simple and Robust Algorithm for Multiphase Equilibrium Computations at Temperature and Volume Specifications
Download2021-05-25
Lu, Chang, Jin, Zhehui, Li, Huazhou, Xu, Lingfei
Two-phase and three-phase equilibria are frequently encountered in a variety of industrial processes, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) injection for enhanced oil recovery in oil reservoirs, multiphase separation in surface separators, and multiphase flow in wellbores and pipelines. Simulation and...
