Lawrence A. Kapustka, Linda C. Morrison and John D. DuBois Dinitrogen fixation (acetylene reduction) activity was determined along a moisture gradient transect of a neutral-slightly alkaline lake ...
Dinitrogen activation and cluster chemistry represent a compelling intersection of fundamental and applied research, exploring the transformation of the exceptionally stable nitrogen molecule (N₂) ...
Calcium—it’s one of those elements that chemists think they know. In its most common form, calcium(II), it builds bones. It’s also one of Earth’s most abundant elements, showing up in seashells and ...
