Soil Respiration of Native Saskatchewan Grassland Calculated from Carbon Dioxide Concentration Profiles
… to monitor soil respiration by measuring CO2 concentrations in soil throughout the growing season. The technique of gas chromatography was used to obtain CO2 concentration profiles on native grassland and cultivated soils. The CO2 concentration gradients were then used to calculate CO2 …

Root Dynamics, Management Effects and Carbon Sequestration on Invaded and Native Semi-Arid Grasslands
… cycle through changes in tissue lignin content, CO2 evolution via decomposition, and soil water and C content. Crested wheatgrass had significantly lower root tissue lignin content, higher CO2 evolution from root decomposition, and did not change soil C content. These results suggest that the …

In situ studies of surface reactions affecting Li-ion battery failure
… regions, loss of active electrode material, gas evolution, electrolyte decomposition, and chemical reactions with packaging and current collectors. Particular side reactions dominating capacity fade vary with electrode and electrolyte chemistry. Many of the general trends and associated design …

Petroleum effects on soil microbial communities
… to ca. 60% water holding capacity. We used CO2 evolution measurements to evaluate soil activity, during the incubation, and soil genomic DNA extraction, at the end of incubation period, to evaluate microbial community changes from treatments and controls. DNA was submitted to amplicon …

The use of organic materials as amendments in the remediation of soils contaminated by lead, copper and zinc
… Pb, Cu and Zn toxicity led to an inhibition in CO2 evolved in all amendments, as addition of any amount of Pb, Cu or Zn led to a decrease I amount of CO2 evolved when compared with the non-contaminated amendments. The effect of increasing metal toxicity on CO2 evolution was reflected best in …

Developments in anaerobic digestion modelling
… gas and solid phases for pH calculation, gas evolution and mineral precipitation and (4) contains the same components as PWM_SA enabling plant-wide modelling without needing component transformers between process units. Before calibration, PMW_SA_AD was rigorously tested for mass balance, …
