After the Macondo (Deepwater Horizon; DWH) oil spill in 2010, an array of six deep ocean current moorings were deployed near the spill site for a period of two years in order to investigate the regional oceanic current ...
-
The Bosch process is a type of deep reactive-ion etching (DRIE) of silicon. It is a type of plasma etching, or dry etching, that uses physical and chemical processes to etch the surface of a silicon sample. Due to its ...
-
Deep reactive-ion etching is an important process in the fabrication of microelectromechanical system devices, through-silicon vias, and dynamic random-access memory capacitors, among other devices and components. High-quality ...

Defining the Role of Operational Sex Ratio in Fitness of Organisms With Sexually Antagonistic Genes (2020-04-23)In many species, populations vary in size and reproductive sex ratio, producing situations in which small population sizes are paired with strongly skewed effective sex ratios. This imbalance among sexes is particularly ...
-
(2015-09-25)Marginal granites of the Tungstonia Pluton of the Kern Mountains, Eastern Nevada, are foliated with poles to foliation that are nearly parallel to those of foliations developed in surrounding dolostones. Thus, the dolostones ...
-
(2010-07-14)The relationship between intermediate watermass response to Atlantic Meridonial Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during two abrupt cooling events of the last deglacial, the Younger Dryas (YD) and Heinrich Event 1 (H1) is c ...
-
A major problem that exists within the field of water treatment is that chemicals must be added to the influent in order to disinfect the water. The most common disinfectant used is chlorine, which has the tendency to react ...
-
(2014-09-22)The estimated magnitude of organic carbon (OC) stocks contained in the first meter of US coastal wetland soils represents ~10% of the entire OC stock in US soils (4 vs. 52 Pg, respectively). Because this stock extends to ...
-
