High-Pressure Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Magnetic Properties of Sr<sub>2</sub>MnO<sub>3</sub>F: A New Member of Layered Perovskite Oxyfluorides
We
have successfully synthesized Sr<sub>2</sub>MnO<sub>3</sub>F, a new
layered perovskite oxyfluoride with a <i>n</i> = 1 Ruddlesden–Popper-type
structure using a high-pressure, high-temperature method. Structural
refinements against synchrotron X-ray diffraction data collected from
manganese oxyfluoride demonstrated that it crystallizes in a tetragonal
cell with the space group <i>I</i>4/<i>mmm</i>, in which the Mn cation is located at the octahedral center position.
This is in stark contrast to the related oxyhalides that have square-pyramidal
coordination such as Sr<sub>2</sub>MO<sub>3</sub>X (M = Fe, Co, Ni;
X = F, Cl) and Sr<sub>2</sub>MnO<sub>3</sub>Cl. There was no evidence
of O/F site order, but close inspection of the anion environment centered
at the Mn cation on the basis of bond-valence-sum calculation suggested
preferential occupation of the apical sites by the F ion with one
oxide ion in a random manner. Magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity
measurements revealed an antiferromagnetic ordering at 133 K (=<i>T</i><sub>N</sub>), which is much higher than that of the chloride
analogue with corrugated MnO<sub>2</sub> planes (<i>T</i><sub>N</sub> = 80 K)
Organophosphorus Flame Retardants and Plasticizers in Airborne Particles over the Northern Pacific and Indian Ocean toward the Polar Regions: Evidence for Global Occurrence
Organophosphorus compounds (OPs) being applied as flame
retardants and plasticizers were investigated in airborne particles
over the Pacific, Indian, Arctic, and Southern Ocean. Samples taken
during two polar expeditions in 2010/11, one from East Asia to the
high Arctic (CHINARE 4) and another from East Asia toward the Indian
Ocean to the Antarctic (CHINARE 27), were analyzed for three halogenated
OPs (trisÂ(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP), trisÂ(2-chloroisopropyl)
phosphate (TCPP) and trisÂ(1,3-dichloro-2-isopropyl) phosphate (TDCP)),
four alkylated OPs (tri-<i>n</i>-butyl phosphate (T<i>n</i>BP), tri-<i>iso</i>-butyl phosphate (T<i>i</i>BP), trisÂ(2-butoxyethyl)Âphosphate (TBEP), and trisÂ(2-ethylhexyl)
phosphate (TEHP)), and triphenyl phosphate (TPhP). The sum of the
eight investigated OPs ranged from 230 to 2900 pg m<sup>–3</sup> and from 120 to 1700 pg m<sup>–3</sup> during CHINARE 4 and
CHINARE 27, respectively. TCEP and TCPP were the predominating compounds,
both over the Asian seas as well as in the polar regions, with concentrations
from 19 to 2000 pg m<sup>–3</sup> and 22 to 620 pg m<sup>–3</sup>, respectively. Elevated concentrations were observed in proximity
to the Asian continent enhanced by continental air masses. They decreased
sharply toward the open oceans where they remained relatively stable.
This paper shows the first occurrence of OPs over the global oceans
proving that they undergo long-range atmospheric transport over the
global oceans toward the Arctic and Antarctica
DataSheet_1_Spatial distribution and diversity of the heterotrophic flagellates in the Cosmonaut Sea, Antarctic.docx
As predators of bacteria and viruses and as food sources for microzooplankton, heterotrophic flagellates (HFs) play an important role in the marine micro-food web. Based on the global climate change’s impact on marine ecosystems, particularly sea ice melting, we analyzed the community composition and diversity of heterotrophic flagellates, focusing on the Antarctic Cosmonaut Sea. During the 36th China Antarctic research expedition (2019-2020), we collected seawater samples, subsequently analyzing HFs through IlluminaMiSeq2000 sequencing to assess community composition and diversity. Notable variations in HFs abundance were observed between the western and eastern sectors of the Cosmonaut Sea, with a distinct concentration at a 100-meter water depth. Different zones exhibited diverse indicators and dominants taxa influenced by local ocean currents. Both the northern Antarctic Peninsula and the western Cosmonaut Sea, where the Weddell Eddy and Antarctic Land Slope Current intersect, showcased marine stramenopiles as dominant HFs species. Our findings offer insights into dominant taxa, spatial distribution patterns among heterotrophic flagellates, correlations between taxa distribution and environmental factors, and the exploration of potential indicator taxa.</p
