Ab initio molecular dynamics investigation of beryllium complexes
(American Chemical Society, 2020)Structures of aqueous [Be(H₂O)₄]²⁺, its outer-sphere and inner-sphere complexes with F⁻, Cl⁻, and SO₄²⁻, and dinuclear complexes with a [Be₂(κ-OH)(κ-SO₄)]⁺ core have been studied through Car–Parrinello molecular dynamics ... -
Association of arsenic and phosphorus with iron nanoparticles between streams and aquifers: Implications for arsenic mobility
(American Chemical Society, 2015)The microbial oxidation of organic matter coupled to reductive iron oxide dissolution is widely recognized as the dominant mechanism driving elevated arsenic (As) concentrations in aquifers. This paper considers the potential ... -
Beachgoers' ability to identify rip currents at a beach in situ
(Copernicus Publications, 2021)Rip currents (“rips”) are the leading cause of drowning on surf beaches worldwide. A major contributing factor is that many beachgoers are unable to identify rip currents. Previous research has attempted to quantify ... -
Geochemically defined space-for-time transects successfully capture microbial dynamics along lacustrine chronosequences in a polar desert
(Frontiers Media SA, 2022)The space-for-time substitution approach provides a valuable empirical assessment to infer temporal effects of disturbance from spatial gradients. Applied to predict the response of different ecosystems under current climate ... -
High diversity and local endemism in Aotearoa New Zealand's groundwater crustacean fauna
(Wiley, 2021)We used DNA barcoding to assess the diversity and distribution of New Zealand's groundwater amphipods and isopods (Crustacea) and to determine whether biodiversity and endemism within tectonically active New Zealand are ... -
A kraft mill-integrated hydrothermal liquefaction process for liquid fuel co-production
(MDPI, 2020)There is a growing awareness of the need to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and the inevitable depletion of fossil fuel. With the market pull for the growth in sustainable and renewable alternative energy, the challenge ... -
Nectary photosynthesis contributes to the production of manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) floral nectar
(WILEY, 2021-08-24)Current models of floral nectar production do not include a contribution from photosynthesis by green nectary tissue, even though many species have green nectaries. Mānuka (Leptospermum scoparium) floral nectaries are ... -
Settling of Bentonite Particles in Gelatin Solutions for Stickwater Treatment
(Elsevier Ltd, 2016)The settling of calcium and sodium bentonite coated with adsorbed protein from gelatin solutions was investigated across pH 3 to 9. The particle settling or sedimentation was achieved at acidic environment regardless of ...
