(2007-08-15)
The Ingersoll shale is a thin (<1m), laterally restricted clay lens within the Upper Cretaceous (Santonian) Eutaw Formation, Russell County, eastern Alabama. The clay lens represents abandoned tidal creek fill within an ...
Biotransformation of Perfluorooctane Sulfonamide (FOSA), 8:2 Fluorotelomer Alcohol (8:2 FTOH), and 6:2 Fluorotelomer Sulfonate (6:2 FTS) in Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF)-Impacted Soils under Oxic and Anoxic Conditions
(2022-12-05)
The use of aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs) for fire suppression over decades has resulted in contamination of numerous sites by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). However, the environmental fate and transformation ...
Bipedal Impact with Granular Matter
(2014-11-06)
Impact with granular matter has been of great interest to researchers for decades, mainly because the material, as a conglomeration of discrete solids, behaves as a fluid until a solid like behavior becomes established. ...
Bipolar Electrochemistry: A Powerful Technique for Chemical Analysis and Property Screening
(2013-04-23)
The phenomenon of bipolar electrochemistry was first exploited about three decades ago in the industrial sector to minimize power dissipation and to carry out electrochemical reactions in poorly conducting media. However, ...
