Preparation, properties, and analytical applications of some substituted alicyclic vic-dioximes

The application of organic analytical reagents to the determination of metallic ions has progressed rapidly in the last few decades. Many of these organic compounds have proved to be selective in their action and thereby make possible the determination of one or two ions in the presence of several others

A ruggedness evaluation of procedures for damage threshold testing optical materials

A ruggedness evaluation of approaches to damage threshold testing was performed to determine the influence of three procedural variables on damage threshold data. The differences between the number of test sites evaluated at an applied fluence level (1 site versus 10 sites), the number of laser pulses at each test site (1 pulse versus 200 pulses), and the beam diameter (0.35 mm versus 0.70 mm) were all found to significantly influence the damage threshold data over a 99-percent confidence interval

2050: Sustainable oceans in a changing climate Cabot Institute Position Paper

The world’s oceans are a potentially hugely productive resource. Against a backdrop of climate change, ocean acidification, population growth and poor governance and regulation, it is vital that we change our management strategies to maximise marine resources now, as well as for future generations. Policy and legislation must be more responsive to scientific evidence and reinforce sustainable and efficient practic
