Picophytoplankton of the Northeast U.S. Shelf: Community Composition and Dynamics by Stevens, Bethany Lynn Fowler

“…I analyze flow-cytometry data collected from 22 regional research cruises, estimate daily Synechococcus and picoeukaryote division rates from underway data, and describe the distinct depth distributions of the two groups from subsurface samples. The major findings of this thesis are that, across the NES, the picoeukaryotes divide at much higher rates than the more abundant Synechococcus and are subject to greater top-down control from grazing or viral lysis. …”

Nanotwins-containing microstructure and superior mechanical strength of a Cu‒9Al‒5Fe‒5Ni alloy additively manufactured by laser metal deposition by Li, Boyuan, Zheng, Han, Han, Changjun, Zhou, Kun

“…The yield strength of the LMD-printed alloy was 160% and 76% higher than that of the counterparts fabricated by casting and wire arc additive manufacturing, respectively, which was attributed to the synergistic effects of the underlying mechanisms including the Hall-Petch type strengthening, dislocation strengthening, precipitation strengthening, and solid solution strengthening. These findings validated the applicability of LMD for printing the Cu‒9Al‒5Fe‒5Ni alloy and facilitated the potential applications in marine and offshore industries.…”

Promoting hydrogen-evolution activity and stability of perovskite oxides via effectively lattice doping of molybdenum by Zhang, Zhenbao, Chen, Yubo, Dai, Ziyang, Tan, Shaozao, Chen, Dengjie

“…We ascribe the enhanced operational stability to the formation of a low concentration of oxygen vacancy that stabilizes the crystal structure of Mo-doped SrCo0.7Fe0.3O3-δ and prevents the surface from Sr leaching/surface amorphization. These findings suggest that tuning perovskite oxide using a redox-inactive dopant featured with high valence state may provide further avenues to HER optimization.…”

Titania catalysts : crystal chemical insights and tailored functionalities by Lim, Suo Hon

“…It is found that anatase disassociates to aperiodic titania before rearranging as rutile, with this amorphous phase enveloping the crystalline material and modifying functionality. The findings are supported by X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) where Ti coordination and order correlation are consistent with the appearance of aperiodic materials prior to rutile crystallization. …”
