- Description:
- Nitrogen (N) deposition can alter belowground microbial communities, especially ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi, resulting in a reduced ability of associated trees to access organic nutrients. This study tested whether N addition decreases ECM species richness and shifts ECM species composition across spatial scales in a subtropical slash pine (Pinus elliottii) plantation...

- Description:
- This study investigated the precipitation strengthening of the binary Al-0.14wt% Sc, 0.16% Ti alloy system. Ingots of Al-2.1wt% Sc and Al-4.68wt% Ti were melted together, and the nucleation, growth, and coarsening of precipitates were analyzed. The microstructural evolution of the nanoscale L12 precipitates phase was examined with Vickers microhardness testing,...

- Description:
- The effects of Ru, W, and Re on the temporal evolution of the gamma prime precipitates in a Ni-Cr-Al alloy were investigated by threedimensional atom probe (3DAP) microscopy. The spatial distribution of the gamma prime precipitates in a model Ni-8.5Cr-10Al alloy was investigated using atomic force microscopy (AFM). We reported...
