21. Is water a crucial factor in the oxidation of FeCrAl alloys?
Abstract : FeCrAl alloys are much used at high temperatures because the formation of a dense and slow-growing alumina scale provides resistance towards oxidation and high temperature corrosion. While the FeCrAl alloys are primarily intended for temperatures above 950ºC, they are sometimes used at lower temperature, for example as supports in automotive catalysts. READ MORE

22. Temporal variation and phytotoxicity of Batatasin-III produced by Empetrum hermaphroditum
Abstract : In northern Sweden, the clonal dwarf shrub Empetrum hermaphroditum Hagerup exerts strong inhibitory effects on other plant species. These inhibitory effects may, at least in part, be attributed to the high production of the secondary metabolite, batatasin-III, which is released from leaves and transported to the soil by rain (throughfall) and snowmelt.

23. Climate Change sensitivity of Photosynthesis and Respiration in Tropical Trees
Abstract : Tropical climate is getting warmer, with more pronounced dry periods in large areas. The productivity and climate feedbacks of future tropical forests depend on the ability of trees to acclimate their physiological processes, such as photosynthesis and leaf respiration, to these new conditions.

24. Surface energy exchange and land-atmosphere interactions of Arctic and subarctic tundra ecosystems under climate change
Abstract : The surface energy balance determines the functioning of any ecosystem on the Earth but is still poorly understood in Arctic and subarctic biomes. In a dynamic system, such as the Earth’s climate, any change in its characteristics modifies the exchange of energy, water, and greenhouse gases between the surface and the atmosphere. READ MORE

25. Textile-enabled Bioimpedance Instrumentation for Personalised Health Monitoring Applications
Abstract : A growing number of factors, including the costs, technological advancements, an ageing population, and medical errors are leading industrialised countries to invest in research on alternative solutions to improving their health care systems and increasing patients’ life quality. Personal Health System (PHS) solutions envision the use of information and communication technologies that enable a paradigm shift from the traditional hospital-centred healthcare delivery model toward a preventive and person-centred approach.
