The abundance, distribution, and isotopic composition of Hydrogen in the Moon as revealed by basaltic lunar samples: Implications for the volatile inventory of the Moon
Abstract In this study we have measured the OH contents and D/H ratios in apatite grains in lunar basalts. These new data considerably expand the limited dataset published so far. The data presented in this study also show that there is a major...

The use of thermomechanical analysis to characterise Söderberg electrode paste raw materials
Abstract Continuous self-baking electrodes, i.e. Söderberg electrodes, are commonly employed in the industrial operation of submerged arc furnaces to conduct electrical energy from a transformer(s) to the smelting zone inside the furnace. Söderberg...

The relationship between biophysical variables and halocarbon distributions in the waters of the Amundsen and Ross Seas, Antarctica
Abstract Little is known regarding the distribution of volatile halogenated organic compounds (halocarbons) in Antarctic waters and their relation to biophysical variables. During the austral summer (December to January) in 2007–08 halocarbon and...
