dissolved organic nitrogen (don) is an important constituent of dissolved organic matter (dom). it has a considerable effect on total dissolved soil nitrogen and it is very important as a nitrogen source of many aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. dissolved inorganic nitrogen, which is another form of total soil dissolved nitrogen, includes no3, no2 and nh4, which is very important for plant nu...

metal-organic frameworks (mofs) represent a new class of highly porous materials. on this regard,  two nano porous metal-organic frameworks of [zn2(1,4-bdc)2(h2o)2∙(dmf)2]n (1) and [zn2(1,4-bdc)2(dabco)]·4dmf·1⁄2h2o (2), (1,4-bdc = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate, dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and dmf = n,n-dimethylformamide) were synthesized and characterized. they were used for preparation ...

Large increases in nitrogen (N) inputs to terrestrial ecosystems typically have small effects on immediate N outputs because most N is sequestered in soil organic matter. We hypothesized that soil organic N storage and the asynchrony between N inputs and outputs result from rapid accumulation of N in stable soil organic pools. We used a successional sequence on floodplains of the Tanana River n...

Here we report on three years (1996-1998) of measurements of organic and inorganic nitrogen (N) fluxes to and from Green Lakes Valley, a high-elevation ecosystem in the Colorado Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. Nitrate-N (NO3−N) was the dominant form of N in both precipitation and streamwater. Annual precipitation contained 52% NO3−N, 32% ammonium-N (NH4−N), 9% dissolved organic N (DON), and...
