The deliberation centers on the accountable component of biosolids as the effective sorbent fraction which may include inorganic phases and/or organic material.</p> <p><a href="http://science-nature.marc8.com/spectroscopic-analysis-metals-biosolids">read more</a></p> http://science-nature.marc8.com/spectroscopic-analysis-metals-biosolids#comments manganese oxide organic substances sorption time bomb xanes http://science-nature.marc8.com/crss/node/7551 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 11:18:28 -0500 admin 7551 at http://science-nature.marc8.com http://science-nature.marc8.com/soils-contain-huge-amounts-ancient-carbon-when-does-car <p>Knowing that soils are a potential climate change time-bomb is nothing new -- but now, for the first time, a group of international scientists have found a way to distinguish just how much of these ancient carbon stores are being lost to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. This means that in the future they may be able to accurately forecast how loss of soil carbon will impact on climate change.</p> <p><a href="http://science-nature.marc8.com/soils-contain-huge-amounts-ancient-carbon-when-does-car">read more</a></p> http://science-nature.marc8.com/soils-contain-huge-amounts-ancient-carbon-when-does-car#comments Top stories burning of fossil fuels climate change international scientists soil carbon time bomb http://science-nature.marc8.com/crss/node/4640 Thu, 15 May 2008 10:15:16 -0500 admin 4640 at http://science-nature.marc8.com
